 “Yet, there are those times when we cry out to God in faith but he remains silent. This is where faith gives way to trust. Faith is confidence in God’s action while trust is confidence in God’s inaction.”

Psalm 37:23,24 (KJV)
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand.

Corrie Ten Boom said, “Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.” I have personally found there is a difference between trusting God and having faith in God. Have no doubt, faith pleases God and we need to walk in faith. But trust is slightly different to faith.

Scripture tells us that faith is the confidence in things hoped for. The word hope implies things yet to come. Indeed, faith is confidence that God will hear our cries for help for those things that we yet need. The scriptures make it plain that God will meet our needs and heal our bodies. God has promised to meet all our needs when we pray in faith, and he does. Yet, there are those times when we cry out to God in faith but he seems to remain silent. This is where faith gives way to trust. Faith is confidence in God’s action while trust is confidence in God’s inaction.

God-tracking is based on the fact that God has plans for our lives. To follow God’s plans, we need to seek his will. To walk in God’s will we need to acknowledge God in all our ways. When we do this, we relinquish control of our lives to the Lord’s direction. Our God is high and exalted. Our God is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent. He is our sovereign Majesty. His character is supreme, his power unlimited and his will is paramount. Therefore, we can trust that he is in control. You can trust the Lord with all your hearts and not lean on your own understanding, even when it seems he is silent.

So, whatever dilemma you are facing today, call on him and have faith that God will act on your behalf. And when it seems he does not act, simply trust him. He is in control, always. And we know that all things work together for good for those who are called according to his purpose.

God-tracking is trusting God knows what he is doing

DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY

Therefore, I will simply trust that you are in control and that you will meet my needs in your time, just in time

“O Lord I need your help! I feel like I’m drowning. I have been calling on you, night and day, for your touch but it seems you are silent. Yet, I know you hear me. I know you know what I face today. I do have faith, O God, that you will meet my needs as I make my requests with thanksgiving. You are faithful and you will do it. However, I see no action, yet. Therefore, I will simply trust that you are in control and that you will meet my needs in your time, just in time. Praise your name. Amen. ”

GOD-TRACKING IS STEPPING OVER INTO NEW TERRITORY, WITHOUT LOOKING BACK

Isaiah 43:19

See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.

“God’s word to you today, dear God Tracker is, God knows the plans he has for you and he is saving the best till last.”

“This is the Jordan river,” said Jan as she laid out a fine linen fabric across the length of the church in front of the podium. Jan had been invited as a guest speaker to our church. She is a gentle soul with a warm gentle demeanour. “Now, if you feel led by the Holy Spirit, please come forward and step over your Jordan River. Just like Joshua and the people of God when they crossed into the Promised Land, cross over today into God’s new purposes for you. He has a plan for you and he is doing a new thing. This is a new day. The point of no return.”

The first recorded miracle that Jesus performed was at a wedding in the town of Cana. Here he turned 35 litres of water into the finest wine, because the wedding hosts had run short of the beverage. The festivities had probably been going on for days. When the master of the feast tasted the new wine he said, “Everyone serves the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then the poor wine. But you have kept the good wine until now.” The new wine that Jesus had produced was far superior to the wine made by human hands. The miraculous provision of God had saved the best for last.

God’s word to you today, dear God Tracker is, God knows the plans he has for you and he is saving the best till last. He is doing a new thing through his miraculous provision and guidance. You may think you have run out of resources, but he is your source and your resource; he who promised is faithful and he will do it. However, the new wine that Jesus gives needs to be stored in a new wineskin. Perhaps the Lord is calling you to leave the old land behind and step over that river, without looking back. Perhaps this is the point of no return! Only acknowledge the Lord in all your ways and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus.

God-tracking is stepping over into new territory, without looking back

O Lord, I put my trust in you and I chose to step over my Jordan River into the promises of your good purposes, without looking back

“Father God, I put my trust squarely in your new purposes and plans for my life. I believe you’re opening a new door for me and have new prospects for me. Thank you that your Word promises good things; that you will never leave me nor forsake me and that you will meet all my needs according to your riches in Jesus. Today, O Lord, I put my trust in you and I chose to step over my Jordan River into the promises of your good new purposes, without looking back. Lord, help me to give up my old wineskins to have your new wine stored in new wineskins. Amen.”
