Trusting God? 30 Powerful Bible Verses that Can Help You!

Trusting God during hard times or when expecting a supernatural intervention is so precious. Did you intend to jilt God? Would you want to follow the Devil because you feel that the delay from God is too long?

Today’s message gives you a biblical manual you can follow to enjoy trusting God in any circumstance.

Bible Verses on Trusting God in Hard Times

Don’t forget that Jesus had prepared our mind that despite accepting Him as saviour does not make us free from tribulations. And the good news is that He had overcome the evil world for you. (John 16:33)

I appeal to you to keep trusting God when you go through the hard times because it won’t last forever. Recite the following Bible verses when your heart shakes and you will receive strength in Jesus name:

1. “Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; ‘For YAH, the LORD, is my strength and song; He also has become my salvation.” (Isaiah 12:2)

4. “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:9)

5. “Commit your way to the LORD, trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.” (Psalm 37:5)

8. “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” (Psalm 91:1-2)

9. “Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us.” (Psalm 62:8)

10. “But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.” (Isaiah 40:31)

Bible Verses on Trusting God Not Man

When you find yourself in critical situation people may tell you sweet words and mighty promises but don’t risk putting your trust in them because they cannot act like God.

I trust man so many times and I suffered great disappointment. I implore you to keep trusting God and not anyone. The following Bible verses helps to strengthen your faith in God:

1. “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding” (Proverbs 3:5)

2. “Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, and whose hope is the LORD. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, and will not be anxious in the year of drought, nor will cease from yielding fruit.” (Jeremiah 17:7-8)

3. “The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD shall be safe.” (Proverbs 29:25)

4. “It is better to trust in the LORD Than to put confidence in man.” (Psalm 118:8)

5. “Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; But he who trusts in the LORD, mercy shall surround him.” (Psalm 32:10)

6. “Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; But we will remember the name of the LORD our God.” (Psalm 20:7)

7. “So, we may boldly say: “The LORD is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?” (Hebrew 13:6)

8. “Do not put your trust in princes, nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help.” (Psalm 146:3)

Bible Verses on Trusting God’s Plan

It took me too long to realize that my analytical sense puts me in more troubles than good when I refuse to trust God’s plan for my life. But I am a living witness today that trusting God to implement His plan in one’s life gives peace, victory and abundance.

Meditate the following Bible verses and keep trusting God to beautify your life:

1. “Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.” (1 Peter 5:7)

2. “Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you.” (Genesis 28:15)

3. “Therefore, I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?” (Matthew 6:25)

4. “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11)

5. “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.” (Isaiah 26:3)

6. “Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.” (1John 5:14)

Bible Verses on Trusting God’s Timing

My experience with the LORD shows that His timing is different from human timing. If care is not taken you can impatiently seek the dangerous fast lane of the Devil which looks attractive.

But trusting God’s timing for your life saves you from a regrettable and bitter life. The Bible verses below can help you to learn trusting God patiently:    

1. “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” (Hebrew 13:8)

2. “For I am the LORD, I do not change; Therefore, you are not consumed, O sons of Jacob.” (Malachi 3:6)

3. “Trust in the LORD forever, For in YAH, the LORD, is everlasting strength.” (Isaiah 26:4)

4. “And those who know Your name will put their trust in You; For You, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You.” (Psalm 9:10)

5. “Trust in the LORD, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.” (Psalm 37:3)

6. “Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning, For in You do I trust; Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, For I lift up my soul to You.” (Psalm 143:8)

This life is not smooth and it cannot be free of trials due to the presence of the Devil. Can we give the excuse of Devil’s presence to the LORD for our distrust in Him? No! He sent Jesus Christ to redeem us from the stronghold of the Devil.

So, start trusting God in all aspect of your life and you would enjoy your temporary time on earth and the eternity.

2. Your sense of seriousness to important matter melts

3. You lose freshness and start decaying.

4. Good opportunities slip away from your hands.

5. You could make poor choices on important matters of life.

6. When you stop praying, you start losing your value.

7. You can get disconnected from the Holy Spirit.

8. There is high tendency to become carnal.

9. You would lose inspiration and excellence and start making errors.

10. When you stop praying, you start losing ground.

Spiritual Growth: 10 Steps, Signs and its Benefits to Christians!

Posted by Jun 7, 2021 Holy Word, Word of Faith 2 Comments
Spiritual Growth: 10 Steps, Signs and its Benefits to Christians!

Spiritual growth is a progressive process that improves your spirit and soul from alienation status to a level of close relationship with GOD making it easier for you to represent Him in the public.

My interrogation with a small group of Christians shows that 70% taught confessing Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour is all about Christianity while 60% are not ready for the discipline associated with the spiritual growth.

Today’s message explains the importance of spiritual growth and the best ways to attain the glorious status.

5 Major Benefits of Spiritual Growth

1. Easier to know GOD deeply more than how anyone can describe Him to you.

2. You acquire great authority that silence any noise from the demons or the Devil.

3. Your spiritual strength and maturity make it easy for you to trek the rough road to heaven.

4. You won’t become lukewarm, Agnostic or Atheist in the future when the storm of life hits you.

5. Not only the power of the LORD but also peace and mercy would be your companion all the days of your life.

10 Steps to Spiritual Growth of a Genuine Christian

You’ll become a Christian when; you confess that Jesus Christ is your saviour, confess your sins to the LORD and take a bold step to repent from the iniquities through His grace and mercy.

So, the next stage is the growth of your spirit-man from spiritual infancy to maturity. The following are practical steps that can help you develop your spiritual being:

1. Change Your Mind-Set

Your orientation about the world must change. Take a firm decision that you are of the LORD and not for the things of this world anymore.

“Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world–the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life–is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever. (1 JOHN 2: 15-17)

2. Separate to Reunite

Relationship with unbelievers or non-genuine Christians may be toxic to your growth. So, separate yourself from bad influences and make friends with God-fearing people. Your faithfulness to the LORD is non-negotiable!

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” (Romans 12:1-2)

3. Start a Prayerful Life

Learn to pray audibly when you are in your private place and silently in your heart when in public. If you devote more time for prayers, then you would receive more spiritual strength from the LORD. Always pray in the morning, afternoon and night.

4. Fast and not Hunger Strike

The major benefit of fasting is to avoid distractions of necessity such as; cooking, eating, thoughts about wears, money, social gatherings etc. Don’t fast if you won’t be in an environment that allows constant prayers. Learn from Moses, Elijah and Jesus Christ.

5. Eat Up Your Bible

You must intensify the act of Bible Study. Read and understand the Scriptures under the influence of the Holy Spirit. I always write notes because the Spirit of the LORD interprets the scriptures to me accurately.

“However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guides you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.” (John 16:13)

6. Constant Meditation

You cannot have a spiritual growth if the word of GOD did not reform your soul. Meditating the Word of GOD means digesting the scriptures you read. Always find a quiet place every day to meditate the scriptures.

7. Practice with the Sword

After meditation then the next step is practicing the holy acts. Set a strong determination in your heart that your life is all about obedience to the word of GOD and nothing else can change it.

8. Dig Out Your Talents

I discovered that when I use the spiritual gifts given to me by the LORD, my spiritual growth becomes conspicuous! So, always use your talents to make positive impacts in the lives of people.

9. Praise and Worship GOD

If you want to grow spiritually then do not joke with regular praise and worship to GOD Almighty!

10. Endure the Pains

The more you overcome trials then the stronger your spiritual growth.

“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)     

Prayer Points for Spiritual Growth

Many years ago, when I fall as a spiritual infant, I cry out to the LORD to lift me up. HE lifts me up and I am happy today that I enjoy the spiritual maturity. So, I chose to share some prayer points the Holy Spirit told me when I always fall and rise. Please the prayers below are guide for you and not a prayer manual:

1. Father take away my heart of stone and replace with the heart of flesh in Jesus’ name.

2. Guide me to know how to remove the log of wood in my eyes.

3. LORD bless me with your divine power and boldness that overcomes temptation every day.

4. Always speak to me oh LORD, I want to hear your voice.

5. Open my eyes to see You in Jesus name.

6. Cast away the spirit of pride in me and give me your humble Spirit.

7. Help my unbelief and make my ear deaf to the devil’s whisper in Jesus’ name.

10 Signs of Spiritual Growth

Spiritual maturity is a gradual process related to your holy responsive spiritual growth, so some signs in your life to show that you are growing do not limit to the following points:

1. Humility and gentleness would be your character.

2. The attractive things of this world would make no sense to you.

3. You can forcefully rise up when you fall without blaming anyone or GOD.
