Trust In God – Isaiah 26:3-4

 

This is “Namma for Christ” with the two hundred sixty-second inspirational message dated Friday, January 26th, 2024.  The title of this message is, “Trust In God – Isaiah 26:3-4”.  The first three words of the title, “Trust In God” are also the words in the title of the below anointed song/video (with lyrics) by Elevation Worship – featuring Christian artist “Chris Brown”. The message’s scripture is below as found in the book of Isaiah - as written by the Old Testament prophet, Isaiah:


Isaiah 26:3-4
New International Version (NIV)


You will keep in perfect peace
    those whose minds are steadfast,
    because they trust in You.
Trust in the Lord forever,
    for the Lord, the Lord Himself, is the Rock eternal.




As to share with future readers and to provide a  brief quotation for critical review - I have included an excerpt of the (January 22nd) message from an inspirational book - (of which I'd like to recommend). The below message was taken from "Jesus Calling - Enjoying Peace In His Presence" as written by Sarah Young. This book was written from the perspective as if JESUS - was saying "these words" directly to "you"!  (Please read the below inspirational message:)

-----------------

STRIVE TO TRUST ME in more and more areas of your life. Anything that tends to make you anxious is a growth opportunity. Instead of running away from these challenges, embrace them, eager to gain all the blessings I have hidden in the difficulties. If you believe that I am sovereign over every aspect of your life, it is possible to trust Me in all situations. Don’t waste energy regretting the way things are or thinking about what might have been. Start at the present moment – accepting things exactly as they are – and search for My way in the midst of those circumstances.

Trust is like a staff you can lean on, as you journey uphill with Me. If you are trusting in Me consistently, the staff will bear as much of your weight as needed. Lean on, trust, and be confident in Me with all your heart and mind.

 

 

Psalm 52:8

New International Version (NIV)

“But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God;

I trust in God’s unfailing love forever and ever.”


 

Proverbs 3:5-6
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)

Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding.

In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths.

 

Proverbs 3:5-6
New King James Version (NKJV)


Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.

 

Psalm 112:4 & 7
New International Version (NIV)


Even in darkness light dawns for the upright,
    for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous.

 

They will have no fear of bad news;
    their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord.
