December 29 - Prepared To Trust.

Isaiah 26:4
“Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength:”
 
How we conduct ourselves in times of struggle depends on how we have prepared our hearts before they are broken.
 
Isaiah 12:2
“Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.”
 
The best way to prepare ourselves is to trust Him before the storm comes.
 
2 Samuel 22:31
“As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.”
 
Trust is found within the pages of His Word.
 
Proverbs 30:5
“Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.”
 
When we trust Him, there is no reason to fear anything or anyone else.
 
Psalm 118:6
“The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?”
 
When we trust Him, there is everlasting strength.
 
Psalm 18:2
“The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.”
 
When we trust Him, there is not just any kind of peace, but perfect peace.
 
Isaiah 26:3
“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.”
 
What is your mind stayed on today?
If it is everything or anyone else but Him, you will have anything but peace.
 
Regardless of the situation you are facing, choose to trust Him today, and every day.
