Who is your builder?
What are you building your spiritual life upon? It is easy to say that God is your pilot but are you living in such a way that shows that He is?
My trust is God
I do not just trust in God…He is my trust. He is so very good.
Are you listening to the scripture? Stay prayed up and be blessed. — Jayly
His name is strong by itself
God’s name is so strong by itself.
I mean, when you hear some names, they already command respect because you know who they are and what the person behind the name is capable of doing. However, those name holders are not perfect and even they are fallible.
But then there is God. He is perfect. There is nothing fallible about Him. When you hear His many names like God, Jehovah, I Am, what thoughts are conjured up in your mind? Perfect? Almighty One? The one that can never fail?
I think about all the ways He has taken care of me through life. Then I think about how He is taking care of me right this moment. Then I think about how He plans, Lord willing, to take care of me and my family in the future and I do not even know what that means yet.
But God has a proven track record. And just like the scripture is getting at; I can feel safe and assured just in His name, let alone in His whole being.
Are you listening to the scripture? Stay prayed up and be blessed by God’s word.

Something new?
Is God saying in the verse above that new miracles will happen? Is saying He will do something that He has never done before in the life of the reader? Is He coming up with a new way to bring people to Christ?
The answer to all of these questions is no.
But consider what He is saying. When you look into a desert, a path is not readily there, is it? If you find yourself in a dry land, all you thirst for is a little bit of water let alone a river, right?
It’s amazing how camels 🐫 can migrate from one point in a desert 🌵 to another point without losing their way. God has provided them the path.
In the lower dry plains of Africa, all types of 🦁 🦏 🦅 🦒 🦓 🦔 animals, wait by a dry riverbed with hopes of water flowing so that they can quench the thirst that is even stronger than their hunger. The snow melts in the northern mountains and eventually that water makes its way to the dry riverbed. God provides that for them.
Even more so, God makes a way out of no way for us that are His, according to to His Word. Yet, we worry about things that we have no control over and the things we do have control over, we worry or are anxious about those things too and we should not be.
