"Give us help from trouble,
for
the help of man is useless.
Through God we will do valiantly,
for
it is HE who shall tread down our enemies."
Psalm
108:12-13
When we have a problem, our first attempt to deal
with it is usually to turn to people for advice or help. Even if they
are loved ones or trusted friends, the advice of man is often faulty.
As good as their intentions may be, no one knows the situation well enough
to give the right advice, because they do not have the depth of
perspective that only God has.
How much different our lives
would be if we would turn to HIM FIRST for help. The one who created
you is the one most trustworthy to turn to. He says he knows the
numbers of hairs on your head. He knows you far more intimately than
your family and friends do, and he has a perspective about your life
that they aren't aware of. Repent of trust in man, place your faith
in God whose plan for your life is of utmost importance.
"Some
trust in chariots, and some in horses,
but we will remember the
name of the Lord our God."
Psalm 20:7

Trusting in the Lord truly means putting your trust in Him above all others. It doesn't hurt to go to others for advice from time to time, just make sure you have went to the Lord FIRST. He really doesn't desire our leftovers! 👍💗🕊😇
YES! Amen!
