Scripture Reference: Jeremiah 17:7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.
When reading the bible we need to slow down and pay close attention. God meticulously planned exactly every Word He wanted to give us and say to us. We often get caught up in the busyness of life, and of course are distracted by the chaos around us (which is a trick of our adversary to take our focus off of HIM).
But careful dissection of the Word will lead you into a new and deeper understanding of revelation in Him. Look at this Scripture closely. Most would say, “Lord, help me to trust in You more.” However, He is trying to pull a deeper meaning out to us here.
The Scripture actually tells us, “Blessed is the man…whose hope IS THE LORD!” It is one thing to trust God, but is your hope in Him too? Do you see the chaos and confusion in your life, but are unmoved? To do this, we must be able to see beyond our troubles, fears, worries, and doubts, and put our entire HOPE in Him.
Do you truly trust Him? Then why not put your total Hope in Him, knowing HE will NEVER let you down? What would or could happen if you not only trust Him, but also made your Hope Him?
So True! Our Hope & Focus should be in the Lord! I know for myself I need to take the time To sit at the feet of Jesus! He is our ever present help at all times! I love you Jesus with all of my heart, soul & mind!
