Believe and Trust – Since the beginning of time we have been taught to believe and trust in many things, including ourselves. Many of us have spent hours in church listening to what we should believe and trust in to save our soul. Our faith in God the Father and our Lord Christ Jesus is based on what others have taught us to believe and trust in. But for us to ensure our faith and our beliefs are in-line with God’s Word, His Son, and His Spirit, we have to allow the Holy Spirit to examine what we believe and trust in. We may have some wrong understanding about the things of God, and what we should believe and trust in, we need to know if it’s all from God. This will take a humble person, not many of us are willing to allow such an examination to take place, because we assume what someone taught us, is what God has spoken. The question is, will what we believe and trust in pass the test of God, or will it fail? Its important that we bounce what we believe and trust in against the Word of God to ensure our belief and trust is founded on the things of God. If what we believe and trust in is not founded on God’s Word it will be impossible for us to grow in faith, and we won’t be able to reach the level of maturity the Lord has called, because we believe in things that have been added to God’s Word and we trust in things of the world, more than we trust in God.
