God whispered to me again this morning, 'Do you trust me?'
Mentally I replied, "Yes."
Later after I sang a spontaneous worship song ("Take me into the holy of holies, take me in by the blood of the lamb....") I sat to pray, overwhelmed by Him and the things going on, conversations on FB with my dad, mom's surgery is coming, still waiting for God to fulfill a promise... I started to pray and petition God about what was on my heart.
Once again, 'Do you trust me?'......I replied with scripture but personalized, I will trust in You, Lord, with all my heart, I will not lean on my own understanding, in all my ways I will acknowledge You and You will make my path straight. You will keep me in perfect peace because my mind is stayed upon You, because I trust in You. I will not fret because of him who prospers in his way, nor be envious of the workers of iniquity. I will trust in You and do good, I will dwell in the land and feed on Your faithfulness. I will delight myself in You and You will give me the desires of my heart. I will commit my way to You, trusting You, and You will bring it to pass. You will make your righteousness shine forth like a light and Your justice as the noonday..... (Prov. 3:5-6, Isaiah 26:3-4, Ps 34:1-)
I felt completely at peace in His presence.... (light bulb moment)
All scripture is God breathed and useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness. (II Tim 3:16)
Looking back I see that I was anxious some and trying to trust God, but not admitting this to Him or myself. Now I see how I can pray the Word of God that is hidden in my heart. No one can take it away from me. I am thankful that He has been encouraging me and directing me to specific Scripture to hide His word in my heart. :)
