Trusting in God’s Care

For his love upon mankind. We are beneficiaries of God's love here on earth. A lot of things, a lot of activities are going on here in them all God is seeing every one of us through. He has never for any reason forsake any of us.

He is still there for every one of us for the few time we have here. The third of the message says, Trust in God's care. Trust in God's care. Fostering God's care means unsurreng all your professionals anxiety seeking his direction over your own and working diligently.

Working diligently. That's what God is expected of you and me. When we rely on God's care, when we trust in his care, he never relents in doing wonders in our lives. And that is why we will quickly see in the book of Proverbs 3, verse 5 and 6 and see what he has for us today.

Proverbs 3, 5, 5 and 6. We are reading from the book of Proverbs 3, reading verse 5 and 6. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge him, and he shall direct your path.

This is the word of God to us at this moment. He said we should trust in the Lord with all our hearts and lean not with our own understanding. We should not lean on our own understanding in everything we do or we want to fix ourselves on. We should delight in God's word.

We should acknowledge God. We should make him first priority in everything we are doing. We should not live in our own understanding, in our own strength, in our own wisdom. It is God who has made you and I to be among the living.

And for that reason he has a purpose in your life and my life. That is why before we embark on any journey or any project or any business, we should acknowledge God and not to lean on our own understanding. Because most times our understanding could fail us. But when we acknowledge God's presence, when we trust God care in our lives, you will see it will look as if you already projected it ahead of us.

Because you and I have shown the care of God in our lives through the leading of His Holy Spirit, who is the guardian of his angels. He will go ahead of us and make things look very easy. And when we embark on them, we will find it very fit, very easy for us in life to go through them. Do not lean on your own understanding.

Do not lean on your own wisdom. That's what the Word of God is telling us here. Let's read again in Psalm 37 Psalm 37, verse 5 to 6. 3 To 5.

Sorry. Read from Psalms 37, verse 3 to verse 5. Trust in the Lord and do good. So shall you dwell in the land, and verily you shall be fed.

Delight yourself also in the Lord, and he shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your ways to the Lord, Trust also in him, and he shall bring it to Christ. Do you understand this? He said we should trust in the Lord and do good.

Doing good is not by your power. It's not by my power. It is because we trust in the Lord and we have reward in doing good. Whoever that has done good and have no rewards, do not have full trust in God.

You are leaning on your own understanding. You are leaning on your own wisdom. But when you trust God and do good, God's reward is inevitable. It must surely come to pass in your life.

It must be bestowed in your life. And what are the blessings? The blessings is that you will receive peace of mind. You will receive maximum security, maximum protections.

Deliverances from the works of the dark. Healings will be the children's bread. Many today. Go out there.

You will understand what we are saying. Many are paying hard incurrences for them to be healed, for them to be protected, for them to be in safety. But God give angels charge over you and I, preserving you and I, sustaining you and I, delivering you and I from every hands and dangers whereby you and I are glad. That's what God could do.

He said, trust in God's care. Don't lean on your own understanding. It is God that is keeping us, preserving us, sustaining us, providing all our needs. What are your challenges and problems?

What are your difficulties? Go to God in prayers, commune with him. Don't just let you fulfill all righteousness. Be committed.

Be committed. Know that without God you cannot exist. Know that without God you cannot make ends. Know that without God, once you have been pursuing that project, that contract, that business, that job, you cannot afford to have them without God.

But when you see God's presence, God's care, and ask God, please, I need you to do this for me. He is able to go ahead of you and pay for you. When you come in into that project, into that business, it will look as if it it has already been projected that God used. God is the one doing it.

We cannot make it possible on our own. A lot of people have done it on their own. At the end of time, they failed. It look as if they are playing in their businesses, in their jobs.

Many have told that our case, your case, my Case will not be the same in the name of Jesus Christ. When we rely on God's care, God will prove himself faithful that he is a great God. He said, delight thyself also in the Lord, and he shall give thee the desire of thy heart. When we delight in the Lord at every given period of time, not just when we come to the church.

When you are opportune to be in the church, that's when you go through the word of God. That's when you feel you are delighted personally. Have a time with God to July 15th. He loves that.

When you come one on one with God to talk, to talk discussion, to know what God desires into your life. And when you have this, whatsoever you call on God, on whatsoever you talk to God and say, this is my problem, this is my niece. He will say, here is my son, my my daughter, my child. Here is it.

And you and I will share testimonies. Many, many have enjoy these privileges. Ours will not be exceptional. Let us take time to trust in God's care.

God is the one who is doing great things in our lives. Read again in Deuteronomy 13:20. Deuteronomy 13, verse 20,. Chapter 30, Verse 20.

That you may love the Lord your God, and that you may obey his voice. And that you may cling to him, for he is your life and the length of your days. That you may dwell in the the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham. Do you understand this?

This is what God is expected of you and I. That we may as love the Lord our God, and that we may as obey his voice. And that we may as cleave unto him at every given period of time. Not just when things begin to look, you know not how to do it, how to go about them.

That's when you remember your God. Love him at all times. At every given period of time. In the morning, in the noon or in the night.

Love Him. Let that Lord dwell in your heart. It will make you. Whenever you are facing challenges, you understand the only way out is in God's care.

You trust him, you rely on him, you depend on Him. And you will never for any reason fail you, fail me. That's the God we are serving. Our God is a God who is available at every given period of time, is not absent.

He is always ready to attend to our situations. And that is why he has signed angels. That is ahead of you and behind you. Don't joke with this situation.

With God's care. Don't feel you are on your own. Feel that you have God on your side at every given period of time. Understand that God is there for you and me at every given period of time.

Let us trust him. Let us believe in him. He said. He said, and that thou mayest cleave unto him.

For he is thine eye and length of thy days. And thou mayest dwell in the land which the Lord sworn unto thy fathers to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob to give them. You and I are inheriting thy God's blessings from our fathers of old, our founders as labor's foundations where we follow. And by the mercies of God, we are taking along that path that he has laid us on.

And God's love is still there for you. God's care is still there for you. God's faithfulness is still there for you. We should not jeopardize this foundation.

We should not jeopardize this part. We should not jeopardize this law that will hurt my father, God. Because of the goodness of the obedience of our fathers of old, Father Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. God saw.

He saw in his heart that he have a land for them. And that land is land where you and I is going to dwell eternally. And for us to be able to inherit that land is that we will obey God's voice, obey his commandments, obey his trust. If we do it on our own understanding, we may fail.

Many, many have failed. It is not meant for you and I to fail. And will meet that land in the name of Jesus Christ. We will inherit it.

That is God's plan in your life. God's plan is that we will not fail. That's what God has for us. Let us continue to trust in God's care.

He has a great thing for you and for me. For us to inherit, so that his name will be glorified. 1St Chronicles 28, 9. 1St Chronicles 28.

And verse 9. Means verse 9. And you so the Lord, my son, know ye the Lord, the God of your Father. And serve him with the prophet's heart and with a will of mind.

For the Lord searches all hearts and understands all the imaginations of the to. If you seek him, he will be found of you. But if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever. This is the admonition to you and to me.

Sons and daughters of the Most High. He said, and thou, Solomon, my son, your name could be dead. Johnson could be dead. David could be dead.

Deborah could be dead. We are sons and daughters of the Most High. He says, know the God of thy fathers and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind. For the Lord.

Searcheth all hearts and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts. And if thou seek him, he will be found in thee. He will be found of thee forever. That's what God is telling you and I today.

If we seek God because we are serving him with a willing mind, he searching. He knows what is in your hand. He knows what is in my heart. Even at this moment, we cannot hide in the sight of God.

Nobody, nobody is. Nowhere is hidden. Even in the uttermost sea, in the uttermost earth, nowhere is hidden. And that is why we ought to be willing to serve God.

Open minded. Seek Him. When we will be able to find Him. Not when we will rob ourselves in the mold.

We'll come back and say we want to serve God. What are molds? Mold is having evil mind, evil intentions. And you feel you could go and serve two masters.

It can't work. It cannot work. The word of God says you and I cannot serve mammon and gods. You must choose yourself.

The God you and I will serve. Trust in God's care. That is the only way out here on earth. And at this time we find ourselves.

This critical moment we find ourselves. A lot of things are going on in the world. People are facing challenges. May God keep preserving his own.

Don't take him for granted. We should not take it for granted. It is God that has been sustaining us. Preserving us.

Not even when the enemy sees us. They will say, no. His testimony was told not from this church, but by someone. She was attacked by men on the wall.

They double across her. I mean on the highway, when they tried to molest her, she asked. She did nothing. What had she done?

And when she tried to, she mentioned the name of Jesus. Save me. At that point, one of them that was attacking her came and shout to their master and said, this man is. This lady is mentioning Jesus.

The man came. I mean the head of those people came and saw her. He said, oh, she's not the one. She.

I mean the man. Now make way for her to go through her path or go her way. That's what God could do for you and I. God is the one preserving you and I.

Sustaining you and I. And how he does them. You and I don't know them. How God preserves you and I, sustain you and I.

We don't know. A lot of people are begging for bread today. But God has not allowed you and I to. To go to the point of where you cannot be able to find and eat or drink May God keep providing for us in the way.

Fast finding. Why not trust God's care? He's a good God. He's lovely.

He's kind. He said we should serve him with a willing mind. He searches all hearts. What are your problems?

What are the challenges? Nothing is greater than God. He is able to sustain us. He is able to preserve us.

Psalm 32. 8. Psalm 32, verse 8. Psalms 32, verse 8.

I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will guide you with my mind. This is the word of God. It says that he will.

Sorry, he won. Psalm 32:8. That he will instruct you and teach you the way which thou shalt go, and guide thee with his eyes. The eyes of the Lord is hovering around your ear.

Whenever evil is coming to touch you, he will box them. You know how when you have sword, when you have injury and flies is trying to perch on them, you can't give chances. That's how God's eyes is upon you and I always. His care is on you and I always.

And that is why for us to be able to be in safety, we must trust in his career. Do not lean on your own wisdom or your own understanding. When you are about to sleep, call upon God. Commit your life to him.

Tell him I'm about to rest. Take charge. God is faithful. He never counts.

He never fails. He give angels charge over you. His eyes watch over you. When enemy wants to attack you, don't touch.

This is my son. This is my daughter. This is my child. He's untouchable.

And when there's pride, they will encounter problems that you and I will never see. God is faithful. He's loving. He said, he will instruct you and I to follow that path.

You and I will follow. And when we go through it, many people had gone through it that they couldn't come out of it. And you and I go through it. And we are saved, we are protected, we are delivered.

That's what God is doing in our lives. His eyes will be over of our lives all the days of our lives. God offers a profession, a purposeful future and promises to provide for your needs. When you profit, when you prioritize his kingdom, when we prioritize the kingdom of God.

Here we are now in God's kingdom. When we take it serious at every given period of time. To have love dwelling in the temple of God. To have love in the things of God.

To have love in the things that will glorify the name of God. He said, God Is ever having every purpose in your life to make sure that you and I succeed. God never relates in you having success in me having success in you and I being protected. He never relied he mental as he worked very hard to make sure that you and I are safe.

Devil has done it. He has done it to our fathers of oath. He went to accuse our father of oath. Is it not because you bless him?

That is why he loves you. He said because God searches all hearts. He knows what is in the intent of your heart. In my heart he said so I know this my son.

He cannot forsake me. He said, give me chance. Let me try. Now he went, he said, okay, go and try every other thing.

But his soul. Never go through it. Don't touch. Which means your soul.

Your soul and my soul, they are very precious in the sight of God. God scared we should trust in him. He cannot fail us. Devil tried very much ahead in the life of Job.

Job lived in the care of God. Even when he lost every of his begotten ones to his children. None of them lacks. What did he say?

The answer was God giveth, God taketh. Can we be able to withstand this situation? It becomes our way. He keep leaning in God's care.

And at the end of Job was not better than his beginning. That's what God is referring to you and I this morning. That we should trust in his care. Our end must be better than our beginning.

In the name of Jesus Christ. If we trust in God's care, God is faithful. God is lovely. Let's see what he had for us in Jeremiah, chapter 29, verse Jeremiah, chapter 29, verse 11.

Jeremiah, chapter 29, verse 11. For I know the to that I take toward you says the thoughts of peace and not of evil. To give you an expected end. Do you understand this?

God has a wonderful thought for you. He has a purpose in your life and in my life. We are not just here on our own. He said thought of peace and not of evil.

To bring unto you and unto me an expected end. What is the expected end? The expected end that we should be successful. That we should make ends meet.

That we should be blessed. When men will see you and I, they will call you blessed. That is the purpose of God in your life and in my life. God never fails.

Most of the time we have faced challenges that look as if I wish how long can I be in this and God At a time those days, those months, those weeks, those years when they pass and become stories, become references of what we have passed through now Today is becoming a testimony of what God is doing in our life. In the time past, so many of us encountered situations that look, how do we go about them? Testimonies have been told about them. That God's fear the story has for you and for me that you are going through recurrent situation right now does not mean the end has come.

It hasn't. It is just the beginning. Trust in God's care, lean on God's wisdom and not your own, not my own, not our own. God is faithful to do great things in our lives.

Psalm 14, verse 5. Psalm 40, verse 5. Read again from Psalms 40, verse 5, the book of Psalms, chapter 14. We are reading verse 5.

Many O Lord, my God, are your wonderful words which you have done and your thoughts which are to usward they cannot be reckoned of, they cannot be reckoned up in order to you. If I will be clear and speak of them, they are more than can we know them. Do you understand this? If we start now to count all what the Lord has done for us, we can't even name them one by one.

That's what the songwriter says. We can't enumerate them what God is doing right from the day we are formed in our mother's womb, the battle we have been facing, the battle God has been fighting for you and for me. If we should start now to count them, we cannot count them. They are too numerous.

They are too wonders what God is doing or has done in our lives. Why not we continue, trust in God's care and not lean on our own understanding. God is faithful, is loving and kind towards God's people. Matthew 6:33, Matthew 6:33 Matthew chapter 6, verse 33.

But seek ye first the kingdom of God in his righteousness and all these things shall be added to you. Do you understand this? In anything you and I are doing, we must seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness. Every other things what are you.

What. What are those things you need? He said it shall be added. But when you first of all seek on other things before coming to seek the the kingdom of God, what if you and I are dead?

That door shuts down just like the. The. The. The.

The five virgins that was not prepared. They were not prepared. They went to seek other things before coming to seek God's kingdom. What happened to them?

The door was shut against them. God forbid. It shall not be our portion in the name of Jesus Christ. For God giving us like to meet today we will seek God's kingdom and his righteousness wherever we are wherever you find yourselves, be it in the east, south, north, northwest, within or outside the country.

Do not forget your roots. Do not forget your foundation. Remember that you have a root, you have a place. That God has promised your fathers and my fathers that we should inherit them.

And for us to be able to inherit such inheritance is that we should seek God's kingdom. And when we seek God's kingdom, he said, all those things, all those things shall be added to you and I. Big peace. Be progress in anything you lay your hands on.

You will prosper. In your health, you'll be healed. Many will be shouting, casting down. You will be shouting, lifting high.

You'll be asking how people will come to ask you. Are you sure you are not seeing what we are seeing? Are you sure you are not seeing what I'm seeing? You will tell them all you are seeing is the Lord Jesus Christ caring for you, who is our Savior, God, who is our Maker.

That is the only person you are seeing. He keep making provisions in the west path. Finding trust in God's care. Don't lean on your own understanding, nor on your wisdom.

Because many that have done that, they keep lamenting, they keep groaning in their hearts and minds. They feel disappointed that they have made every effort to make ends meet. They couldn't. How are you doing it?

The only way out is that we should trust in God's care. If we trust in God's care, God will not disappoint us. That's what God has for you and for me. This afternoon.

God is speaking. Let us take grace from God to love him. He said believers call to work faithfully, as if serving the Lord rather than human masters, finding that that delight. Diligent effort bring reward.

Diligent effort bring reward. When we diligently serve God, work for God. At the end of time, God's blessing is inevitable. It's inevitable.

There is no doubt. You can't tell me that you plant corn with trust, with confidence, that you cannot reap from that corn. Look at a seed of corn. When you plant a seed of corn, it will give you a bunch whereby when you count.

If you are to take time to count that seed of corn that you reap within 10 months, I want to tell us there are still your plants. It will take three months to harvest. There are seeds you plan it will take six months to harvest. There are seeds you and I will plant.

It will take a year for you to harvest them. That is seeds, diligently working, serving for God. When the reward starts coming, it will look as if you, you, you, you, you. You already did.

I mean, you make. How do I put it? It will look as if you, you people will call it Obuego. It's not.

It is the seed that you have. I have planted in the 10 past waiting for the harvest. And that harvest is on the wall. God has for you seed of righteousness, seed of faithfulness, seed of loving God in everything you do.

Sow it, do not grumble, do not will it. Let me just. No, do not prefer unrighteousness. Do it wholeheartedness.

The things of God, serving God wholeheartedly. He said, it has reward in your efforts. Colossians 3, 23 and 24. 4.

Colossians chapter 3. It says, and whatsoever you do, do it heartily as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that of the Lord, he shall receive the reward of the inheritance. For you serve the Lord Christ. Do you understand this?

Whatsoever you do, do it wholeheartedly. Not as if you are doing it for men, you are not doing it for man. It is God, the maker of the whole universe. He said, a cup of water that you serve your visitor.

There is a great reward on it. Just a cup of water. Many, many have not even seen it as an important event, as an important thing. You do it serving your visitor.

Cup of water. Many take it, Zolukopo. There is a great reward on it. And as you serve God diligently, He said, there is a great reward on it.

He said, and whatsoever ye do, do it diligently as unto the Lord and not unto men. Knowing that of the Lord, ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance. For ye serve the Lord Christ. Anything we are doing, we are serving Christ because He has given us that mandate.

This is what you will do. And you obey the voice of God. Obey the voice of Christ. Directly or indirectly.

You are serving Christ because you are doing it for Christ. You are not doing it for man. Know it now. Many have seen it.

When I do good to you, I should expect good from you. That's not what God is expecting from you. That means there is no reward. You are not expecting it from God.

Anything you do for righteousness sake, have it in mind. Have it in mind. The only person that will reward you all after day is Christ is Jesus Christ, who laid down his life for you and for me. For us all to be redeemed.

That's the only one that has the reward that when the end of time shall come, he will be the one to usher you in. Come and have your reward. My Son, my daughter, then when you have it in mind that you are doing it as unto men. Sorry, you might be disappointed.

That shouldn't be your case. It shouldn't be my case. Our case is that we are serving as unto Christ so that at the end of time you will be blessed of him. I will be blessed of him.

Trusting in God's care. That's what God has for you and me. Acts 20, verse 32. Acts chapter 20, verse 32.

And now brethren, I command you to go and to the word of his grace which is able to build you up and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified. This is the word God, the Spirit of the living God is commending you and I unto God today. He said, and now brethren, I commend you to God and to the world of this grace which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all them. Which.

Which. Which is sanctified. That is what God which has sanctified you and I in commanding you and I to God's grace. And that grace can be able to build you and I up to keep trusting, leaning in God's love, God's ear at every given period of time.

Before you embark on any journey, don't go on your own. Don't do things on your own. Let God be first acknowledged. When you acknowledge God, you are good to go.

Feel free, Feel free. I am living example of what God is doing. Last two or three weeks I traveled. I was at my bus station to help my means of movement down to Benin.

It took me a lot of time, a lot of time. I kept worried to a point that for me to live where I am then is getting late. I felt almost felt disappointed if God is not aware of my movements. And immediately I had that thought.

I said, God, please take control. God brought me a vehicle that came and took me down. Before getting to a point, I noticed something that there was hindrance on the road. If I had taken the first bus, it would be the same time that I landed that place.

That's when I would have landed. And before I got there, God has already abated the whole blockage and I passed through without any waste of time. That's what God can do for you and for me ahead of you and I. God will always pave way.

And when you pass through it, it will look as if how do you do it? Did you see what I saw? That's what people will be asking. You will tell them already God has made way for you and Me.

That's what God can do. God is faithful. His care never fails. It never go to a point and it fails or break.

The only thing. The only thing that will break God's love in your life. God, first day in your life and my life is when we fail to the voice of our maker, the voice of God. The voice of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

If you fail and say, who is that God? He will keep aside. He will watch over you. You will understand.

If you can be able to make it at the end of time, you will still run back to him and say, God, please, I'm sorry. That is the only time God can feel God sees his care from you. But when you faithfully continue diligently following trust in his care, he will never fail you. He will see you through.

He will favor you. He will do great and marvelous things in your life which you will glorify his name. That's what God has for you. Proverbs.

Proverbs, chapter 14, verse 23. Proverbs 13, 14, 23. Please. We are in from Proverbs 14, verse 23.

Proverbs, chapter 14, Verse 23. In all the world there is prophets. But the tongue of the lips tends only to theory. Do you understand?

In all our labors. All our labors there is profits. All our labors is the labor of righteousness, labor of love. Labor to trust God in everything you do.

He says thanks to profit. There is profit in them. Labor of unrighteousness. I see profit in them.

What are the problems? The problem is that you are going to get what you never expected. Unrighteous acts. It doesn't pay.

The only thing that pay is that we serve God. We serve Jesus. For navigating workplace stress or job loss, scriptural orders, presenting requests to God through prayer, trusting in his strength and finding comfort in his presence. That's what God is urging you to be.

Urging us. The only place we could find comfort is that we should commit ourselves through prayers to God. Without God's care, nothing. All we are seeing today is just camouflage.

Without God's love, there will be no existence. Many in the time of old, we are just floating the way we are floating today on earth. A day came, a day came. Everything gone down drain.

Nothing except eight souls and pure animals that was saved. We shouldn't wait until such situation should arise again Today we shouldn't. We should keep trusting God. Philippians 4, verse 6.

Philippians 4, 6. We are reading From Philippians chapter 4, verse 6. Philippians 4. We are reading verse 6.

Be careful for Nothing. Because in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your request be made unto God. Trusting in God care, He said we should be careful for nothing. But in everything, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, we should let our request be made known unto God.

Not unto man, not unto any man, but unto God. Someone has asked, can God come down from heaven to answer my prayer? The answer is yes. The answer is yes.

Because Jesus Christ came in the form of man to redeem you and I. He came in the form of man to save you and I. He came in the form of man to direct us that path for us to follow, teach us what to do, how to pray to God. He can use Bar.

He can use any man, any being to come down to save you, to answer your prayers. It is none of your business to know who is that person is. It is none of your business. Only God knows because he cares.

He could use male or female, he could use young or old, even people you least expected he could use them. That's God to you. God is faithful. Our time is limited.

We have just few place to study. Joshua 1:9 Joshua chapter one, verse nine. One. Joshua Chapter one, verse nine.

Have not I commended you? Be strong and of a great courage. Be not afraid, neither be you dismayed. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.

Do you understand the this is the encouragement coming to you and me at this moment of time. He said, have I not commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage. Be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed, for the Lord thy God is with thee.

Wilt thou soever thou goest, wherever you go, in the mountain, in the valley, in the sea, wherever you are, God is with you. There he said only what you and I will do is to be strong, be courageous, be strengthened. God is there with you even as it with us here present. Quote us from henceforth, those challenges, those difficulties, those doors that refuse to open today, they will be open in the name of Jesus Christ.

Those failures. You are going to receive a welcome note in the name of Jesus Christ and say, my son, my daughter, the time has come for your reward. Don't see that of righteousness you have planted in the past. God is about to do great things in your life.

His care is coming, it has come right now and we will receive them all in the name of Jesus Christ. We read to close Psalm 27:1 and 2:7 27:1 and 2 of Psalm. We are reading from Psalms chapter 27, verse 1 and 2. The Lord is my light and my salvation.

Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, even my Vietnamese and methods came upon me to eat all my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

So shall it be upon our lives. In the name of Jesus Christ shall we.
