Trusting God Blindfolded - Julius Glass
INTRODUCTION
Are you prepared to allow God to bless your faith, and take you to another level in Him? Are you ready to see the manifestation of everything that God has spoken concerning your life? Don’t allow one obstacle to stand between you and what the Lord has promised you. Move on and do not delay any longer!
Move on in faith and assurance that what God has promised will come to pass. You will have to take a leap of faith even when you do not know how it’s going to happen. What’s important is that you know that God makes even impossible things possible and there is no searching of His understanding or His power. He has already given you all things that pertain to life and godliness. 2 Peter 1:3 says, according as his divine nature hath given unto us all things that pertain to life and godliness through the knowledge of him that has called us unto glory and virtue.
You only need to act out your faith. The scripture says, for by grace are we saved through faith. The grace has been given to receive from the Lord, but we access those things by faith.
Even when God has given you the promise, you need faith to step into it. So, keep moving as God moves, and do as He instructs. Never tire or relent because of what you see or don’t see in the physical.
Our faith is eternal even though the physical limitations are fleeting. The scripture says, for all flesh is as grass and all the glory of man as the flower of the grass. The grass withereth and the flower thereof fadeth away, but the word of our God endures forever. 1 Peter 2:24-25.
God is ready to bless you with the results that you have been expecting, but He also wants to take you on a journey of trust and complete dependence on Him. The only thing keeping you back from experiencing all that God has in store for you is fear and unbelief, nothing else. Fear makes you think, What if it doesn’t happen? And unbelief makes you feel that faith can’t be all and you need something more.
Our righteousness does not move God. He is moved by our faith in Him and by how much we can obey and trust Him to keep His word. He desires for us to trust him fully and totally, whether or not we can see what He is doing and whether or not we know where He is going. Usually, it is easy to trust God when you can see a sign and you know where He is leading, but the whole idea of faith is a complete abandonment in the hands of God, whether or not there is a sign. He says, this generation seeks for a sign before they believe. But blessed are those who haven’t seen yet they believe, John 20:29. You can trust God without seeing a sign or understanding the process. He desires for us to trust Him without borders—physical, mental, or spiritual. The chapters leading up will show you how to trust God; having an unshakable faith, even amid uncertainty.
In His vineyard,
Dr. J. R. Glass
CHAPTER 1
God Can Be Trusted
Trust depends on the characteristics, attributes, and personality of the person we are choosing to trust and not on the seriousness or lightness of the situation surrounding our trust. It’s not the gravity of what you are going through that determines your trust, but the nature of God and how you respond to Him in terms of your positioning, alignment, and actions. The Apostle Paul wrote in the scriptures , " For I know whom I have believed and I am persuaded… " (2 Timothy 1:12). He trusted God because he understood His nature.
When we choose to trust God, we choose to trust the very nature of God, which is the infallibility of His word and His Spirit. The scriptures talk about this infallibility in the book of Hebrews 6:13-14 where it says, for when God made a promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself saying, "Surely in blessing, I will bless you and in multiplying, I will multiply you. Verses 17-19 further says, "Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath, that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us. This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil."
God needed to prove to Abraham that he is not a man that he should lie and he is not the son of man that he should change His mind, that’s why he swore and because there was no greater one to swear by, he swore by Himself.
