TRUST IN JESUS - Proverbs 3: 5-6


This is Namma for Christ with the fifty-first inspirational message dated Saturday, May 24th, 2014. The title of this message is: "TRUST IN JESUS - Proverbs 3: 5-6".  This message is based on the below scripture text from the third chapter in Proverbs (written by King Solomon) as found in the Old Testament (KJV):


Proverbs 3:5-6

King James Version (KJV)
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.

When you read the above definitions of  "TRUST", does it make you reflect on 'WHO" you rely on...who do you put your TRUST in...or WHO IS YOUR CONFIDENCE IN?

Throughout the Bible, God's Word tells us to TRUST IN THE LORD...


Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Our bible verses for this message instruct us on "how" we are to TRUST IN THE LORD: WITH "ALL" OUR HEARTS...


Verse 5 further informs us that we are "NOT" to "LEAN ON OUR OWN UNDERSTANDING"....finally, verse 6 of  Proverbs 3 tells us "we must acknowledge our LORD in EVERYTHING (IN ALL OUR WAYS)...so that HE WILL DIRECT OUR PATHS.

In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.
