Summary
Today we’ll explore how leaning on the Lord for truth and understanding relates to trust. Where do you look for wisdom? God promises us that when we look to him, he will deliver all the wisdom and understanding we need for any circumstance. May you find the understanding you need for your situation today as you learn to trust the Father and lean into him.
Our Scripture for today comes from Proverbs 3:5, and today's worship is Lean Back by Capital City Music ft. Dion Davis.

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!
