CAN GOD TRUST YOU?

I am unsure if you’ve ever thought of this before, but God wants to be able to trust you with His Gospel, the same way He wants you to trust Him.
Question?
Can God trust you with His word?

Can He trust you to feed His sheep with what He wants them to know?

Can God trust you when Satan is coming in with attack after attack?

Can God trust you with His money?

Can God trust you when everyone has abandoned you because you chose Him over pagan living?
Can we keep it (100)? We have all faced some type of spiritual attack at some point in our lives.

You know what I’m talking about, when Satan has pulled every one of his cards out to defeat us ( or try).
We want to blame our defeat on everyone but it’s rightful distributer, the one that attack should be accounted to and that is Satan( he has come to steal, kill, and destroy) that is his job, his character, who he is. John 10:10 ( partial) The thief cometh not, but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy
There are too many people being ignorant to where those troubles, issues, and defeat comes from, and yes don’t get me wrong I know that some people bring their defeat and demise upon themselves by leaving those entrance points open, but he is still the one behind it.
We know all that Foe needs is an open door…..
God does not want us to be ignorant to anything (good or bad). This is the reason why we have the Word of God and the Holy Spirit who is here to lead us into all truth (John 16:13)When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own but will tell you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future.
God wants to know if you will stand and fight, or will you back down and run, will you be the one fighting or the one hiding?
Do you even know when you’re under attack and in the midst of a battle?

All you have to do is look into Paul’s life, or better yet, how about Job’s and all they lost and gave up for a good cause.
PAUL: Shipwrecked, attacked by murderous mobs, beaten, starved, imprisoned, and betrayed by friends… all to serve the one thing ( Saul) at one time sought to destroy… Christianity.
Paul was… Persecuted for Jesus Christ,

Stoned and left for dead,

beaten with rods three times, Whipped with 39 lashes five times,

Attacked by an angry mob,

Many death threats,

Paul’s response was, “Everyone who wants to live a Godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted(2 Timothy 3:12)In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,

And the hardships he endured?

Shipwrecked three times and floated for 24 hours –

Criticized by other Christians –

Under arrest for two years without a trial-

Bitten by a viper,

And to these things, Paul said, “Endure hardships with us like a good soldier of Christ Jesus,” (2 Timothy 2:3)
JOB: can we just say, that God blessed him more in his later days-(Job 42:12) So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.

Job lost everything but gained so much more at the end.

When God calls your name will you stand and fight or will you run?

Believe me Satan has your number, and you can be assured that he’s going to try to steal your joy, kill your faith, and destroy your growth in God.

Satan’s job and character is to try and get you to run, quit, cave in, give up and get you to stop the race you have going for God.

So what’s going to be your reaction?

What will you quote from the inside out that you’ve been pondering on and training and equipping your heart for in such a time as the one that’s coming?

Stay equipped and armored down at all times with; the Word, Fellowship, Prayer, Fasting, Meditation, Praise and Worship.

Remember that if you have handed your life completely over to God and He is your (Only Source) and the One you lean, depend, and rely on for your daily existence.

He’s the One in control of your life, not Satan.

Satan’s not in control of anything pertaining to your life, he’s just a counterfeit that is easy to be recognized.

Always be ready to praise God morning, noon, and night, at all times, let His praise always be in mouth – (Psalm 34:2-3)My soul shall make its boast in the Lord;
The humble shall hear of it and be glad.Oh, magnify the Lord with me,
And let us exalt His name together.

Are you ready to face the facts?

Can God trust you for what He needs you for?

Are you trustworthy?

As you study and get prepared for living here in the world with training in CPR if you’re a doctor or a nurse, training in college courses for that position you’re seeking in the world. Have you done that spiritually?

Have you been in training?

But, what about what it takes to be equipped for kingdom living are you trustworthy and been trained in the Gospel?

Can you recognize false doctrine being taught when you hear it?

Does the Holy Spirit and you have that type of connection where he tugs at you to let you know that what you just heard from whomever you’re sitting under is not of God?

Do you or have you studied your enemies tactics and strategies?

Are you familiar with strongholds and how to cast them down?

What is it going to take for God to trust you?

God is looking for boldness – 1 Thessalonians 2:2 (NLT)
² You know how badly we had been treated at Philippi just before we came to you and how much we suffered there. Yet our God gave us the courage to declare his Good News to you boldly, in spite of great opposition.

God is looking to approve you –Philippians 1:10(NLT)
¹⁰ For I want you to understand what really matters, so that you may live pure and blameless lives until the day of Christ’s return.
God wants you to please Him in your speech – Romans 3:4 (NLT)
⁴ Of course not! Even if everyone else is a liar, God is true. As the Scriptures say about him,
“You will be proved right in what you say,
and you will win your case in court.”
God will examine your heart – 1 Thessalonians 2:4 (NLT)
⁴ For we speak as messengers approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News. Our purpose is to please God, not people. He alone examines the motives of our hearts.

God will not trust us with His word if you teach it in error – 2 Timothy 3:13-15 (NLT)
¹³ But evil people and impostors will flourish. They will deceive others and will themselves be deceived.
¹⁴ But you must remain faithful to the things you have been taught. You know they are true, for you know you can trust those who taught you. ¹⁵ You have been taught the holy Scriptures from childhood, and they have given you the wisdom to receive the salvation that comes by trusting in Christ Jesus.

If our motives are Impure – 1 Thessalonians 2: (NLT)
³ So you can see we were not preaching with any deceit or impure motives or trickery.
If we are being deceitful – Psalm 101:7 (NLT)
⁷ I will not allow deceivers to serve in my house,
and liars will not stay in my presence.

If Using flattery – 1 Thessalonians 2:5 (NLT)
⁵ Never once did we try to win you with flattery, as you well know. And God is our witness that we were not pretending to be your friends just to get your money!
Daniel 11:32 (NLT)
³² He will flatter and win over those who have violated the covenant. But the people who know their God will be strong and will resist him.
Luke 12:15
15 Then he said, “Beware! Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.”

When God is first in your life and your greatest desire is to do His will, then every resource you have will become available to Him, because you understand it all belongs to Him anyway.

The moment God can see you as a person who can be trusted with His possessions; you will qualify to receive more than you have ever before.

When your priorities are centered in Him He can trust you with His resources, and your priorities will become His priorities and you will be where He wants you to be.

So, I ask you again, Can you be trusted by God to do, go, and speak everything He asks of you?

Be Blessed.…( empowered to prosper)
