The Ultimate Trust Fall (2 of 8)
Series: In God We Trust

Proverbs 3:5-10
We’re hitting the pause button on our series in Acts and we’ll pick it up again on Easter Sunday. During this pause we’re doing an eight-week series called ‘‘In God We Trust.’’ Our church is now looking at what it means to be financially free from debt. This may seem to be more practical than spiritual, but as we’ll see, getting out of debt bondage is also a spiritual matter, apparently a matter with which our entire culture is struggling. So as a church, we’re taking two months to hopefully put our personal finances in order. Our small groups are going through Financial Peace University, and others of us are also going through what is called the Legacy Journey. Both of these help us understand how to manage our money to the glory of God, properly using our resources, not only to serve our own needs, but also to serve and honor God with every penny spent. Then during our time together as a congregation, we want to look at the issue from more of a spiritual side-not that the practical is bad. We’re focusing on the idea of trusting God, because if we can’t trust God-not only with our money, but with our time and our talents and our families and our relationships-then we don’t see God as being wholly trustworthy in every aspect of our lives and we’ll never give Him the things we should. The Bible says when we keep things to ourselves, we are fighting against God, rather than walking with Him. We’ve been looking at Scriptures that remind us that God is completely trustworthy, and today we’re going to ask, ‘‘How do I begin to trust God in all facets of my life?’’ Our Scripture today is a famous Old Testament passage-Proverbs 3:5-10: 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. 6 In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. 7 Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil. 8 It will be healing to ...
