Summary

As we have learned this week, our God is fully trustworthy. Placing our trust in his hands is the wisest thing we could ever do. As we finish up our week on trust today, we’ll explore how trust plays a role in our sanctification and maturing as believers. As we commit to walk with and trust the Lord, may he bring forth a harvest of righteousness in our lives.

Our Scripture for today comes from Psalm 37:5-6, and today's worship is New by Craig and Rachel Denison.

--

 

Faith doesn’t happen on its own. It’s a byproduct of time spent experiencing the faithfulness of our God. It’s a gift given to us by the Giver of good gifts, himself. 

 

It was a supernatural faith that allowed Paul to sing even while in chains. It was supernatural faith that allowed Peter to proclaim the gospel, even unto death. And it’s supernatural faith that will carry you to and through the greatest gospel opportunities in front of you. 

 

We pray our printed devotionals, Faith and Trust, help people like you experience the life changing reality that faith and trust have on your everyday life.  

 

With Faith you’ll: 

 

  • Discover a Biblical framework for living faithfully
  • Study powerful moments of God’s faithfulness in scripture
  • Tear down personal strongholds in your life where you struggle with faith
  • Develop a lifestyle of faith, that weathers the storms of life

 

And every dollar you give today goes to help more people like you experience the nearness and love of our God. 

 

Everything changes when we learn to trust and become filled with faith in our good, good God. Get your copy at supportfirst15.org!

Scripture says, commit your way to the Lord, trust in Him, and he will act. He

will bring forth your righteousness as the light and your justice as the noonday. Sanctification

1:09.2

and holiness are words that used to strike terror into my heart.

1:13.6

As a believer, I've always tried to pursue holiness, and I always seem to fail.

1:19.6

It seems like no matter what I do, I can't escape sin and can't get past my own brokenness and mess. Even in seasons where I'm experiencing

is far different from what I just described.

I can in no way sanctify myself, because in and of myself, I have no holiness.

2:09.3

The truth God is for us today is simply this.

2:13.2

Sanctification comes about by true relationship with our Heavenly Father alone.

2:18.3

Holiness is the direct result of openly and continually encountering the nature of a perfect, loving, and available God.

2:30.3

If we're going to experience the fruit of righteousness, we must learn to trust God in His plan for our sanctification.

2:39.0

We must learn to trust that in encountering Him, we will experience freedom from our sin and healing for the wounds that drive us to the things of the world.
