God can merely speak a word, and the enemy will falter before us. “For through the voice of the Lord Assyria will be beaten down, as he strikes with the rod” (Isaiah 30:31). Beloved, there is no matter our Father can’t solve, no battle he can’t win for us with a mere word from his lips. Isaiah says “the breath of the Lord” will consume everything in our way (see Isaiah 30:33).
Despite this, the process of trusting God in all things isn’t easy. I sought the Lord about a situation concerning our potential ministry headquarters building here in Florida, I told God, “I trust you about this, Father. I have sought you about it, and I will be at peace about it.” Here is how he answered me. “Kevin, I’m amazed that you can trust me with your real estate, finances and other material things, yet you still won’t trust me with your physical well-being.”
Now the Lord’s convicting words hit me like a thunderbolt. I’m 62 years old and have wondered about my most wonderful wife if anything were to happen to me. I’d put every material concern into his hands but not the eternal concerns. I realized, “Lord, you want me to trust you with everything, don’t you?”
Yes, dear saint, he wants it all, your health, your family, your future. He wants you to entrust him with every matter. He wants you to live in quietness, confidence and rest.
Go to your secret closet and get alone with the Lord. Bring everything to him. He has promised, “You’ll hear my word behind you, telling you which way to go. This is the way. Now, walk in it.”
The evidence of faith is rest. Trust faith results in peace of mind. True faith entrusts all things into his hands.
