Trusting Jesus

Justin Baker • August 19, 2022

Have you ever dealt with trust Issues? relying on someone and they do not show up or relying on them to do something, yet they do not come through with what they said they would do. This Morning's Fire-starter is a reminder of how we can trust Christ and he will always keep his word!!!

In the picture Above you can see a Church built back in the 1800's. This is where i am preaching this Sunday and where i preached this past Wednesday night.

This Church has been in existence for that long. I'm reminded this morning how important it is to trust Jesus.

Pastors, I am sure that there have been times when you have wondered where the money would come from to pay the bills, where the manpower would come from to get the work done and yet you had to sit there and wait on God to show you and direct you to the right people. 

Christians, as a whole, have a trust issue!!!1 What do I mean by this? Instead of letting God handle things we take matters in our own hands. 

I will never forget being at the back door of the auditorium and the man at the front door came to me right in the middle of service and said the parking lot lights need to be turned on. I said, give me a few minutes and i will get someone to turn them on. About every five minutes he kept coming to me and telling me the same thing and i would respond the same way. Finally, the man got upset that i had not got someone to turn the lights on and then went into the Auditorium and told someone himself to turn the lights on. He came out the door and slammed the door behind him. 

What Happened? There was a trust Issue. 


The reason why so many people in this world have a trust issue with a lot of Churches in this day and time is because so many have words coming from their mouth yet no actions coming from themselves. 


Same thing goes for Christ people have to learn to trust him because of the way that Christians act and the words they say. 

Let me be the first to say, Christ is trustworthy!!! if you call on him to save you, he will answer you.
