FAITH CAPSULE: God is more than trustworthy to wait on Him.

Psalm 62

It is written, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” (Proverbs 1:7) Despising God’s instruction is the evidence of no fear of God. Ones who take to God’s instruction know to fear Him and will dwell safely, and will be secure without fear of evil. (Proverbs 1:33) Trusting God comes from knowing Him by constantly following His instruction. God is more than trustworthy to wait on Him. Do you trust God? Can you trust Him enough for your deliverance?
The word of God could not have said it better when it says, “The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom…” (Psalm 11:10) It is wisdom to know that the one that created heaven and earth is real and true. It is wisdom to know that there is nothing He cannot do. It is wisdom to know He cannot fail and all His word will come to pass. How do you trust in the Lord? “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” (Proverbs 3:5-6) Trust in Him with all heart-not just by acting to impress others. Trusting Him just by the word of the mouth is not enough to provoke the hand of God because God goes by what transpires in the heart. Do you truly trust with your heart or test Him in your heart? Testing and not trusting is a way of doubting God.
The word of God promised,”…He who puts his trust in Me shall possess the land and shall inherit My holy mountain.” (Isaiah 57:13) Absolutely there is nothing worth more than trusting God and finding out His truthfulness. A heart that knows to truly trust God waits on Him at all times in all situations. God expects us to wait on Him because it is a demonstration of faith and faith is what pleases God. The book of Isaiah 40:31 testifies, “…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.” There is no failure in trusting to wait on God. With the fear of God every other thing shall fall into the right place. All that the word is asking from us is to fear Him. King David also testified in Psalm 62:1-2, “Truly my soul silently waits for God; From Him comes my salvation. He only is my rock and my salvation; He is my defense; I shall not be greatly moved.” In trusting God there is salvation and God will not fail to defend the ones that truly trust Him. Do you truly trust God?
