“Stand Still and Trust the Lord!”
It takes effort to stand still when the pressures
of the world are on us. It takes true faith to stand still when prayers,
especially urgent prayers, are not answered in our time.
We must truly believe in the wisdom of God
to enable us to “Stand Still and Trust the Lord!” when the answer to our prayer
is “no”.
I read a wonderful poster which stated…
God
is always faithful to answer
Sometimes
His answer is a
much desired “yes”.
Sometimes
His answer is a
merciful “no”.
Sometimes
His answer is a faith-building “not
yet”.
And sometimes...sometimes When an answer cannot be found His answer is simply
Trust
Me
This poster served as a gentle reminder that
I must be faithful in my knowledge that it is always in my best interest to Stand
Still and Trust in the Wisdom of God!
God has given us comforting messages in
His Word which we can call upon when we need strength to face life’s trials. He
has given us examples of His faithfulness to those who truly place their trust
in Him.
I pray that these scriptures bring hope,
strengthen your resolve in trying times and encourage you to truly “Stand Still
and Trust the Lord!”
Exodus 14:13-31
Psalm 4:4
Psalm 37:7
Psalm 107:28-29
Isaiah 40:31
and many more….
Psalm 46:1-7 God is our refuge and
strength, a great help in times of distress. Therefore we will not be
frightened when the earth roars, when the mountains shake in the
depths of the seas, when its waters roar and rage, when the mountains
tremble despite their pride. Look! There is a river whose streams
make the city of God rejoice, even the Holy Place of the Most
High. Since God is in her midst, she will not be shaken. God will
help her at the break of dawn. The nations roared; the kingdoms
were shaken. His voice boomed; the earth melts. The Lord of the
heavenly armies is with us; our refuge is the God of Jacob.
May God Forever Be a Blessing in Your
Life!!!
