Life is a trust
Good day, dear friends!Thanks God for this wonderful day and for another opportunity to be feed and filled with the living word from God! As we stated earlier, it’s very important for us to understand the essence and the value of life itself. It was also said, that life is time, and life is goal and life is a test. When you understand that life is time, you plan your time in such a way so that you can manage to accomplish the right and the most important things of life first. Every person was born to solve a certain problems and to accomplish a particular purpose Understanding this truth helps us to live strategically. Besides, when a person understands life is a test, he relates to every difficult situation in life as an opportunity, not as an obstacle. Today I would like to touch yet one more side of life. Life is a trust. You should understand there is nothing that belongs to you. Your life itself is not yours, it’s a trust God has shown to you. Understanding this truth changes the way you respond to what is going on around you. You do not live for yourself; you did not appear on this Earth by your own act of will or for your own personal purpose. God has given life to you as a sign of His trust for you. You are entrusted with life from God and the day will come when you will have to give account to God for the life He given to you, – for all your deeds and words while living in your body. The understanding of this truth will make your life important. We do exist because of Him, not the other way round. God can live without me, but I, in turn, cannot live without Him. God has entrusted me with my life, therefore. It belongs to Him. Life is a trust! Saying you trust God doesn’t make you a hero. It’s silly not to trust God. Anybody can trust God. There is no reason why one should not trust the Almighty, all knowing God. There is a different question to answer. Whom does God trust? It’s easy for you to trust God, while it’s important to know whether God trusts you. It’s necessary that God can trust you. God has entrusted you with your life, so that He can bless you and release more and more of His resources into your life. However, in order for that to happen, you have to prove to God that He can trust you by the way you relate to all the things you have already received from Him. Each of us has received something from God. You can prove to God that He can trust you by understanding that everything you possess has been given to you by God and by using all your talents the right way and for the right purpose. Once you prove to God that you can be trusted with things of value, He will bless you with more and more of His eternal resources,- more and more power, wealth, anointing, grace, influence and glory. Please do a self evaluation and check yourself out on how you are using all what God has already given to you. Majority of Christians think their prayer is the key to everything, so whenever they run into problems, they turn to God in prayer, asking Him for help and so on. I am not trying to underestimate the power of prayer; it’s truly important and essential in our Christian life to prayer and to run first to God in the days of trouble. But my point is this: prayer (petition) can’t resolve all our problems; petition can’t solve problems caused by disobedience. All problems caused by disobedience can only be resolved through true and sincere repentance and not prayer as many people understand it. Obedience is a sign of repentance. When we deserve God’s trust, God gives us much more than the desires of our heart or what we are asking for. God will do exceeding more abundantly above that which we ask or what we can imagine (see Ephesians 3: 20).
