His ways are perfect

“As for God, His way is perfect; the Word of the Lord is tried. He is a Buckler to all those that trust in Him.” Psalm 18: 30

God is continually showing me how perfect His way truly is. Most of the time, we have our own ideas of how to do things and think that our way is best, even if it’s subconsciously. However, what if we actually chose to do things God’s way?

What if we actually chose to handle our finances God’s way?

What if we actually chose to handle our relationships God’s way?

What if we actually chose to handle school God’s way?

What if we actually chose to handle work God’s way?

 What would happen if we chose to look to God for the solution to each and every area of life, rather than looking to how we or society have always done things?

What if we actually believed that God’s way of living is truly perfect? That He truly does know what He is doing and that He is absolutely able to be trusted…completely and without reserve?

“Lead me in Thy Truth, and teach me: for Thou art the God of my salvation. On Thee do I wait all the day.” Psalm 25: 5

No longer would we try to brainstorm how to handle a situation.

No longer would we try to come up with fleshly solutions.

No longer would we look inward during life’s difficult challenges.

We would focus our gaze upon HIM. For we are absolutely, positively, without a doubt convinced that our God will come through on our behalf! We know that when we try to do things in our own strength or willpower, we ruin them and make things only worse. But I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord; we can be completely and utterly dependent upon the One is all knowing!

His way is tried. Christians throughout history have taken God at His Word in simple faith, and He has always, without fail performed on their behalf! For, He is faithful and cannot be otherwise!

Jackie Pullinger was called to the walled city of Hong Kong, full of prostitutes and drug lords. She walked right into the city, free from worry of the danger present and absolutely confident in her Lord’s promised protection.

George Mueller set plates at the table for children, even when no food was visibly available, absolutely confident in his God’s promised provision.

Amy Carmichael left home and comforts to rescue little girls from temple prostitution, absolutely confident in her Lord’s promised satisfaction and love.

Richard Wurmbrand allowed himself to be tortured for the sake of Christ’s precious Name, absolutely confident in his Lord’s promised grace and endurance.

Corrie Ten Boom was able to love and forgive a man who had tortured her dear sister, absolutely confident of that fact that her God has promised to supply her with His love.

Little 5’ tall Gladys Alyward marched into a men’s bloody prison riot and commanded them to stop in the Name of Jesus, absolutely confident in her God’s authority and control.

I could keep going. Many others throughout history have seen God perform miraculous things on their behalf, simply because they chose to stake their all upon Him and let Him perform that which He has promised. 

Will we choose to trust Him in such a way?
