Trust God by Trusting What He Has Done

"What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

"He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?" (Romans 8: 31-32)

Do you have a hard time trusting God for anything in your life?

Do you know that He has paid for all your sins -- past, present, and future?

"And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world." (1 John 2: 2)

and

"By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all." (Hebrews 10: 10)

This work is a done deal, finished:

"I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do." (John 17: 4)

and

"For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. " (Ephesians 2: 10)

On a more serious note, the writers of Hebrews declares:

"For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins." (Hebrews 10: 26)

The work is done, finished, over in Christ! We are thus called to bring all thoughts into captivity to His Obedience (2 Corinthians 10: 5)

If you have the notion that He has not taken care of everything, then you still need to grow in grace and knowledge of the Lord!

The more that you know Him, the more that you see all that He has done for you, then you cannot help but trust Him!
