Welcome to the In Touch podcast with Charles Stanley for Tuesday, June 10th.

When you have Jesus, you can trust him to fill every gap, but you have to trust him to do it in his way and in his time.

God says that he will meet every single need that we have in his own way and in his own time.

And in Colossians chapter 2, if you'll turn there beginning in verses 6 through 10,

here is a tremendously important admonition, something for us to remember, something for us to be aware of

that Paul the Apostle says, writing to those Colossians that is so apropos for us today.

So we want to read Colossians chapter 2, beginning in verse 6, and read through verse 10.

And notice how he says this.

He says, as you therefore have received Christ

Jesus the Lord, so walk in him. That is the way you received him, walk in him. Having been

firmly rooted and now being built up in him and established in your faith.

Just as you were instructed and overflowing with gratitude, see to it that no one takes you

captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according

to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world,

rather than according to those principles that we find in Christ. For in Him that is in Christ,

all the fullness of deity dwells in bodily form, and in Him that is in Christ, you have been

made complete, and he is the head over all rule and authority.

What Satan wants to do is to lure you away from your dependence upon the Lord Jesus Christ to meet your need

and tempt you in any and every way possible to get you

to start attempting to meet your needs in your way without Almighty God. And if Satan can do that,

he knows he can't tamper with your soul. That is, he can't tamper with your spirit. He knows that

if you trusted Jesus as your Savior, you're saved. He can't tamper with that. What he can't tamper with your spirit. He knows that if you trust that Jesus is your Savior, you're saved.
