Intro: Don’t forget what you have been thought

I Trust in the Lord

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

‘Not on yourself”

A. Brings Security

Psalms 62:7 In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

8 Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.

“At all times”

B. Brings Peace

Isaiah 26:3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

4 Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD

JEHOVAH is everlasting strength:

C Brings Strength

Jeremiah 17:7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.

8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.

II Acknowledge him “God”

V6. In all thy ways,

The result is “he shall direct thy paths.”

A. Be Humble

7 Be not wise in thine own eyes:

B. Be Fearful fear the LORD,

C. Be Discerning “ and depart from evil.”

“Be Healthy,”

8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.

Honor the LORD

1 with thy substance, and

2 with the first fruits of all thine increase:

Malachi 3:8 Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.

9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.

10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

2 Corinthians 9:6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.

7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

“Be wealthy”

10 So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.

Don’t Despise the Lord

1 his correction

11 My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:

2 His ways

12 For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.

“Be Wise”

13 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
