This will Encourage You! Commit it “All” to the Lord: And Leave it with Him

God wants us to commit all our problems, cares, worries, pain, heartache, and difficulties to Him!

No doubt Christians are facing tremendous challenges and difficulties that can leave us feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about the future. But we are encouraged to trust in the Lord and to commit our ways to Him. Psalms 37:5 says, “Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.” This verse holds a powerful promise for those who believe and trust in God.

Committing your way to the Lord means you take your problems, concerns, and needs to Him and leave them there. It’s like putting a letter in a mailbox and trusting the Postal Service to take care of it. You don’t go home and worry about whether the letter will reach its destination or not. You simply drop it off and let it go.

The same goes for our concerns and needs. When we bring them to the Lord, we trust that He will take care of them and bring them to pass in His own time. We don’t hang onto them and worry, but we commit them to the Lord and let them go.

In 1 Peter 5:7, it says, “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.” This verse is emphatic that we as believers are to commit our ways to the Lord and leave our worries with Him.

Devotional:

Beloved, let us trust in the Lord and commit our ways to Him. When we face challenges and difficulties, let us bring them to Him in prayer and leave them there. Let us trust that He will take care of us and bring everything to pass in His own time. May we have the peace of knowing that the Lord cares for us and is always with us. Amen.

Thank you for reading.

What Saith the Scripture?

Most problems in interpreting Bible passages arise from neglecting a passage’s context. The guiding principle of sound interpretation is to take a passage literally. Not maintaining this discipline, interpreting Scripture becomes made up, man’s idea, fantasy, and the passage can mean almost anything. The result is erroneous and ridiculous interpretations.

Another important principle to sound Bible interpretation is to read Scripture “in-time”. In other words, we have to read and study the Bible as a progressive revelation. Not getting ahead of God’s revelation.

God’s plan of redemption for mankind wasn’t revealed all at once to Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Isaiah, or any of the other old testament prophets. Not even Peter and the eleven were given the full counsel of God. The Lord revealed to each of the aforementioned what they needed at their particular time in Biblical history. A hermeneutical method that does not approach Scripture as a progressive revelation leads to erroneous interpretations.

To be a good bible student one must maintain a literal, grammatical and historical (in-time) hermeneutic. There has been much too much of man’s theology governing Scripture when it is God’s Word alone that reigns over theology.

Who's writing?

Identify the author of the book and passage.

Who is the author writing too?

Who is the audience? Yes, all Scripture is for us but not all of Scripture is directed to us our salvation and doctrine (how to live our daily lives). To say all of Scripture is, is erroneous interpretation.

When was the Book or Passage written?

This is necessary to identify the time and historical context.

What were the circumstances when it was written? (what was going on)

What was going on before and after it was written?

What happen before and after the particular Book or Passage you’re reading?

What is the HISTORICAL CONTEXT OF THE VERSE?

Where does the Bible verse fit in Biblical history. Use the answers from the list of these questions to identify the “historical context”.

Are there other passages that the Author has written to help expand on the verse your reading?

Utilize the full counsel of God to illuminate the passage

All of Scripture fits perfectly.

The Good News

salvation

Salvation is a FREE GIFT from God. You don’t have to do anything but believe by faith that God sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for your sins, was buried, and rose from the dead 3 days later.

THE GOOD NEWS

SALVATION

Salvation is a FREE GIFT from God. SALVATION IS BY FAITH ALONE & FAITH IS BELIEVING WHAT GOD SAYS.

God declares all mankind sinners and we all fall short of Glory of God. Romans 3:23
The payment for our sin is death. Romans 6:23
But God…because he loved you so much sent His own Son, Jesus Christ, to die in your place, for your sins, was buried, and rose from the dead three days later. 1 Cor 15:1-4; 2cor 5:21

All God asks is that you believe by faith alone in 1, 2, & 3. That you’re a sinner, separated from God but God sent his Son to die for your sins, was buried & rose again 3 days later.

that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

Romans 10:9
