Trust God, He Has a Plan

 Scripture:

“Then you built a large tank between the walls to store the water. But you refused to trust the God who planned this long ago and made it happen.”  ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭22:11‬ ‭CEV‬‬

Observation:

Isaiah is speaking here to Judah and condemns them for building things and fighting enemies, but refusing to trust God, who planned all of it long ago. They were leaning on themselves instead of leaning on the Lord, and God wasn’t happy with this.

Application:

How much do we lean on ourselves, our own understanding, our own skills, etc. instead of looking to the Lord as our help. We tend to do everything on our own, then cry out to God when we are in a bad place. We need to learn to trust Him in plenty and in need. We need to trust and follow Him at all times. He planned it all long ago. It’s much better to align with His plan.

Prayer:

Lord God Almighty, You are awesome and deserving of my praise. You are the wisest of the wise and the creator and author of all I see. Why do I try to live life and make decisions apart from You? Forgive me Lord, and help me to trust You more each day.

Yours,

Jeff
