Devotion: Trust in God with all your heart
Although God does want His people to prosper and be blessed, it is much more important to Him that you entrust Him with your life.
Too often, we fall into the trap of trusting God to give us more things – a new car, a bigger house, a better computer.
We turn God into little more than a supernatural Santa Claus, who gives us what we want.

Although God does want His people to prosper and be blessed, it is much more important to Him that you entrust Him with your life.
Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight”.
Trusting God is simply having faith in Him – that He is who He says He is.
In tough circumstances, trusting God means believing His promises, that He will work all things for good.
Trusting God does not mean trusting that He’ll send Santa to give you what you want.
Especially during difficult times, putting your faith and trust in God brings rewards.
Isaiah 26:3 says, “He will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is set on Him”.
Perfect peace is available if you’re willing to trust God in the midst of challenging times.
