Trusting in God

Welcome to Living Word Cast!
I’m Pastor Michael Chilcott, coming to you from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This podcast exists to proclaim, teach, and explore the Word of God together. Our goal is to provide sound theological and biblical guidance on all things Scripture, helping you grow deeper in your understanding of the Bible and your relationship with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Whether you’re seeking answers, encouragement, or a closer walk with God, this podcast is here to help you stay firmly rooted in the truth of God’s Word.
Trust is a word we use often, but what does it really mean to trust God? How do we trust Him when life is uncertain? Why is trusting in God so essential? And what does it mean to truly place our full confidence in Him?
Trusting in God is more than just saying, “I believe in Him.” It’s about depending on Him in every situation-when life is good, when life is confusing, and when life is painful. But how do we develop real trust in God? Why is trusting in Him so vital? And what does it truly mean to trust Him fully?
Our key Scripture today is Proverbs 3:5-6 (ESV):
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths."
This verse tells us to trust God with everything, not just when it’s convenient. Today, we’re going to explore:
1. How to trust in God - Practical steps to develop deep trust.
2. Why it’s important - The blessings and promises that come with trust.
3. What it means to fully trust God - Living a life of surrender and faith.
Let’s dig deep into this truth.
