Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional 14 July 2024, Sunday Message
TOPIC: The Difference Between Faith and Trust
Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we will remember and trust in the name of the Lord our God. Psalm 20:7 (AMP)
TODAY’S MESSAGE
The words faith and trust are often used interchangeably, but there is a difference. Faith is something we have, while trust is something we do.
God gives us faith. His Word says that every man is given a measure of faith (see Romans 12:3), but it is up to the individual what they do with it. Trust is faith in action. It is faith that has been released.
If you have not been doing so, make a decision to begin putting your trust in God in every situation in your life. In your time with God today, talk to Him about all the things you trust Him for. Trust God for your future and trust Him for whatever challenging situation you are facing today. Trust Him to work in and through you to bring His will to pass.
PRAYER OF THE DAY: Lord, out of everything I tend to put my trust in, You, Lord, are the only source that is completely reliable. Thank You for giving me faith, and help me to actively trust You in every situation as I put my faith into action every day, amen.
