Did you know you can build your confidence in God? It grows the more we meditate on His Word, know who He is, and draw near to Him through prayer. Confidently trusting the Lord brings many blessings:
• Spiritual Growth. Relying on God means we respond to difficulties by seeking Him for guidance and strength. In turn, we experience the Holy Spirit’s presence, provision, and power and, as a result, spiritual growth. We’ll be capable of accomplishments far better than we imagined when our assurance comes from the Lord (Ephesians 3:20).
• Peace. When our security rests in God and we show conviction about His promises, peace follows. Isaiah 26:3 says, “The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace, because he trusts in You.” Our calm demeanor will waver, however, when we mix trusting Him with relying on ourselves.
