How to Trust God with Your Life

I’ve struggled off and on with anxiety over the last few years and if you’re here reading this, then you may be going through your own difficult circumstances.

In fact, I’m sure that you are going through your own hard times because we live in a fallen world and have to face difficulties every single day.

I like to share verses that God has laid on my heart with others in hopes that He can use them to encourage someone else who might be struggling.

I know that the past few years have been difficult on just about everyone, but the fact is that God is the same yesterday, today and forever. His love and faithfulness never change.

God’s word says that he will never leave us or forsake us, which means no matter how bad things seem, he is still in control. You can trust Him to work everything out for our good and His glory.

He knows what we are facing and wants us to lean into Him when we are struggling or worried.

Never Give Up Hope

As humans, we are so small and finite compared to the creator of the heavens and the earth. We may feel that our situation is hopeless, but if you are a Christian that is never the case.

There is always, ALWAYS hope because God is on his throne working everything out and he is literally the God of hope.

One of the things that God has taught me through all of this is that anxiety can only come when we aren’t trusting in Him.

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.”
-Proverbs 3:5-6

“Delight yourself in the LORD,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your way to the LORD;
trust in him, and he will act.”
-Psalm 37:4-5

“Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD,
whose trust is the LORD.
He is like a tree planted by water,
that sends out its roots by the stream,
and does not fear when heat comes,
for its leaves remain green,
and is not anxious in the year of drought,
for it does not cease to bear fruit.”
-Jeremiah 17:7-8

Keep Your Focus on Jesus

Just think of Peter when he saw Jesus walking on the water. When Peter’s focus was on Jesus and he put his faith in Him, he (Peter) was able to walk with Jesus on the water, but when he (Peter) looked around at his circumstances and took his eyes off of Jesus he began to sink.

So when we put our focus, regardless of our circumstances, on the one true God we will walk on the solid ground of faith, hope and love, but when we start to focus on our earthly struggles, we’ll surely begin to sink into anxiety, fear and depression.

If we TRULY put all of our faith and trust in HIM who already has the victory, then what is there to worry or be anxious about? I have to put my whole life in His hands and simply trust that he knows what is best.

“Our soul waits for the LORD;
he is our help and our shield.
For our heart is glad in him,
because we trust in his holy name.
Let your steadfast love, O LORD, be upon us,
even as we hope in you.”
-Psalm 33:20-22

“You keep him in perfect peace
whose mind is stayed on you,
because he trusts in you.
Trust in the LORD forever,
for the LORD GOD is an everlasting rock.”
-Isaiah 26:3-4

“The LORD is my strength and my shield;
in him my heart trusts, and I am helped;
my heart exults,
and with my song I give thanks to him.”
-Psalm 28:7

We Can Trust God Even in Difficult Circumstances

We as humans tend to dwell on our earthly circumstances, but often forget that God sees the whole picture, not just the struggle that we are facing in the moment.

He sees and he knows. He has the power and the ability to pull us from our problems in a way that we never could have imagined because we are only human and not an all-knowing God.

Just as we train our young children to trust us because we know how to keep them safe and what is best for them, we are called to trust our Heavenly Father for the very same reasons.

“Behold, God is my salvation;
I will trust, and will not be afraid;
for the LORD GOD is my strength and my song,
and he has become my salvation.”
-Isaiah 12:2

“And those who know your name put
their trust in you,
for you, O LORD, have not forsaken
those who seek you.”
-Psalm 9:10

“The fear of man lays a snare,
but whoever trusts in the LORD is safe.”
-Proverbs 29:25

Get Offline to Hear the Voice of God

We live in a world that is filled with bitterness, hate, fear and all manner of ungodly things that are thrown in our faces everyday, but we have the option to tune the world out, by logging off and going for a walk instead.

How can we expect to be people who are filled with faith and trust in God, if we never take the time to turn off the noise and actually hear what God has to say?

So today I encourage you to build quiet space into your day and actually spend time with the Lord. Doing so is sure to reap a harvest of good things into your life, including being able to trust in Him more.

“Behold, God is my salvation;
I will trust, and will not be afraid;
for the LORD GOD is my strength and my song,
and he has become my salvation.”
-Isaiah 12:2

“And those who know your name put
their trust in you,
for you, O LORD, have not forsaken
those who seek you.”
-Psalm 9:10

“When I am afraid,
I put my trust in you.
In God, whose word I praise,
in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.
What can flesh do to me?”
-Psalm 56:3-4

Practical Ways That Will Help You Trust in God

  • Start the day with prayer and scripture.
  • Pick a verse that encourages you and place it somewhere that you will see it frequently.
  • Memorize bible verses that remind you that God is good and can be trusted.
  • Recite scripture when you are struggling with worry or anxiety.
  • Fill your mind with all that is good and beautiful, in other words, be aware of what information that you put in front of yourself everyday. Does it glorify God? Is it worthy of your time or is it making you worry more and live in fear?

  11. I’ve only recently joined a faith based book club, and as I finished today’s reading, I wanted to find the Bible verse that popped into my mind, so I googled the first few words, and the rest popped up…as did your site! It struck me because we share the same first name, and so I’ve subscribed and look forward to following you in the future! I started a blog of my own two years ago, and found it an inspiring source of therapy as I try to explore and better understand my journey, which has been a treacherous one…often! Nonetheless, I’ve always had my faith, my Rosary and a daughter and son-in-law who’ve proven to be some of the few humans I could ever completely trust! Thank you for the gift of your presence here, and God’s timing, that I found you today. My best wishes to you… Missy DearEasyDiaries.com

Respected Prayer Warrior in Christ battle, Greetings from Masagram Christian Church. Thank you for praying and supporting for “Fifty Crore Gospel Tract Distribution Movement”, with 200 Gospel Distribution workers and local volunteers. Burdwan Society:This is my pleasure to share with you the unspeakable joy, the Lord Jesus has endowed upon me and my fellow brothers in our small noble faith ministry in different remote villages in west Bengal State. Ofcourse I have seen the miracles every moment in all the expect the village people are very simple and upon hearted . Every day evening they come to our gospel meetings with a crowed 400 men and women they are not highly educated but a little knowledge,they may have to understand the gospel., if one can make it plain and simple with some example and practical incidents, which occur, in their day to-day lives. These people are not civilized as the town people, but learnt to wear simple clothes and women had made Indian saries very recently electricity come to their village but no light points in their homes they are used to lamps which the ten virgins used, which Jesus narrated some people yet use the lamp made out of clay as it is very difficult for them to affored money for a real lamp. Their food is very simple. Rice with water where they put little salt and chill, either red or green. While eating they bite a piece of onion to get their own taste. They do not know what a bath tub is. They have no idea about rest room. They do everything outside. They do not have prevacy for all these works. They drink the same stagnate water of reservoir, where they did into for bath. It is same water where the village washer man washes the dirty clothes. This same water the cowboy clean the animals and what else I say, this is the same water where they where they bath, wash their clothes and animal drink also. It is pathetic RELIGION, they do not know what it is, they do not know what Hinduism or Muslim is or why they worship stone or idols. They know, the worship same spirit. They say it troubles them if they would not worship it or give sacrifices or animals or birds to it. Often they worship as their for-father have taught them to do. They worship it but do not know how to worship it. This is what they have understood in religion and nothing else. Self and family, team members ever grateful to you for all the help to me till date. I pray for your best health, ministry and with travel. But, the Lord spok to me to go to such remote places and speak the message of Lord Jesus Christ to the People, these who were sitting in the darkness. The Jesus said, “Gospel should be preached to the Poor”, oh : what a great and merciful God. Who is even concerned for the dispressed and down tredden matrially and spiritually neglected and poverty stricken people. By God grace many people Came to the Lord Jesus. I have already started construction of the three prayer house in West Bengal, one is in Masagram , Ajhapur and another is at Hooghly, which is 100 kms from Howrah.

  20. Great list there, sis. Missy. Abundant life, the eternal, is in the verses you've shared. Isaiah 12:2 and Isaiah 26:3 are the ideal ones to me; I'm saved and God is my Salvation. He has caused me to be focused on Him, too. I thank Him YHWH for first loving me, so I can be able to love Him, too. It has always been by His grace, not my works. I'm blessed.
