Abridged notes taken by Jacob Litchfield.
Trust
- Makes no arrangements
- No questions asked (carnal questioning)
- All questions answered in God’s timing
- No programs of man
- The Holy Spirit is the leader
- Not what we want
- Complete relaxation
- Anticipation of His will
- Does not manipulate or arrange
- Does not try to steer or engineer God’s will
- Suffering - which precedes compassion
It’s not to accomplish great things, it means to be faithful to a small assignment.
Many men have died without knowing what they could have been if they would have trusted Jesus.
God will not let the trusting heart miss anything that is for him
The world sees what God gives the trusting heart as scrap, but it is at the center, diamond
The life of trust is the only life He can guide
God cannot lead the retaliating, resentful, murmuring, critical, disobedient, unbelieving heart
The trusting heart dwells and leans under the shadow of the Almighty
The trusting heart lives on and in the Word
Trust has it’s existence in the fellowship of God
Trust has it’s essence in "Christ in you the hope of glory” as you wait and praise and obey
Trust ceases at disobedience
Trust cannot exist with any earthly manipulation
Trust cannot exist in an unbelieving heart
Trust ceases to exist in a cramped, pressed spirit
In the life of trust it is never monotony, it is variation
Trust is when we are completely in His hand, happy with His guidance and direction
In the life of trust there is great flowing of praise in the interior life
In the life of trust there is a sunset that never sets
Only a childlike heart will trust
ALL OF THIS IS BASIC YET PRICELESS
Man will try to mash this out of you
The most wonderful thing you could ever do is to learn to trust Him with all your heart!
In the life of trust there is complete compliance with God’s will
Only the trusting, obedient heart can hear
The trusting heart fears God
The heart that loves and fears God is the heart that trusts God, not anxious
The trusting heart rejoices
Everything in us (that is our flesh) is against this!
