Trust in God Only!

 

"Blessed is that man who makes the Lord 

his trust, and does not respect the proud, 

nor such as turn aside to lies."

Psalm 40:4

 

The word binary has gained popular credence in the

 digital age. Binary can mean “one or the other” or “on 

or off.” The first transistors were binary switches, either 

“open or closed.” Notion of binary decisions has given

 rise in the computer age to phrases like, “You can’t be 

a little bit pregnant/bankrupt/honest.” You either are or

 you aren’t.

 

Jesus made a binary statement in Luke 16:13 when He said

 it is impossible for a servant to serve two masters: God and

 money. If you serve God, your heart can’t be set on money, 

and vice versa. Blessing comes to the one who chooses to 

trust and serve God instead of trusting in himself, money, 

or worldly wisdom. Blessed is the man who trusts in God

 (Psalm 40:4) and in His Word (Psalm 1:1-3). Our daily trial 

 is to weigh our trust: Is our trust in God or in ourselves?

 

If you're facing a faith-challenge today, make sure 

you aren’t trusting in two things at the same time. 

Trust in God and be blessed.

 

"As long as we continue to trust to our own

 abilities and activities we shall avail nothing."

D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
