It is my heart’s desire to trust in You always and to do good. I will delight myself in You, O Lord, and I trust You will give me the desires of my heart. As I commit my life to You, Lord, and trust in You, You will fulfill Your promises to me. You will bring forth my righteousness as the light, and Your judgment as the noonday sun. Knowing these truths enables me to rest securely in You (Psalm 37:3-7).
I will not fear, for You are with me; I will not be dismayed, for You are my God. You strengthen me and help me; You will uphold me with Your righteous right hand (Isaiah 41:10). I will not let my heart be troubled. I trust in You, God, I trust also in Your Son (John 14:1). Because my heart is fixed on You, trusting in You, I will not be afraid (Psalm 112:7).
Help me to trust You more and more because I know this is the key to security in my life. Your Word promises that the man is blessed who trusts in You, Lord, whose confidence is in You. Then I will be like a tree planted by the waters that spreads out roots by the river. I will not fear when heat comes and will never fail to bear fruit (Jeremiah 17:7-8).
This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is you salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength” (Isaiah 30:15). Father, this knowledge brings a feeling of great security to my soul. Thank You for Your Promise that Your unfailing love will surround me as I trust in You (Psalm 32:10). Thank You for promising to direct my paths when I trust You with all my heart and not lean on my own understanding of things (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Grant that I would never place my trust in uncertain riches or any other thing except You, my loving Lord and God, who richly gives me all things to enjoy (1 Timothy 6:17).
I place my trust in You, O Lord, in You alone; because I realize I am not sufficient of myself in anything. All my sufficiency and security are from You, dearest Father (2 Corinthians 3:5). You are my confidence, and I know You will always keep my feet from being snared (Proverbs 3:26). Thank You, Lord God, that through faith in Christ Jesus I have boldness and access to You with confidence (Ephesians 3:12). Therefore, I cast all my worries upon You, trusting that You care for me (1 Peter 5:7).
Though a host encamp against me, my heart will not fear; though war arise against me, in spite of this I shall be confident… I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. I will wait for the Lord; I will be strong and let my heart take courage; yes, I will wait for the Lord (Psalm 27:3, 13-14).
For You have been my hope, O Sovereign Lord, my confidence since my youth (Psalm 71:5). In the fear of the Lord there is strong confidence, and His children will have refuge (Proverbs 14:26). The fruit of righteousness will be peace; the effect of righteousness will be quietness and confidence forever (Isaiah 32:17).
It is Christ Jesus my Lord, in whom I have boldness and confident access to the Father through faith in Him (Ephesians 3:12). For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in me will perfect it unto the day of Christ Jesus (Philippians 1:6). Christ was faithful as a Son over His house – whose house I am, if I hold fast my confidence and the boast of my hope firm until the end (Hebrews 3:6). We have come to share in Christ if we hold firmly till the end the confidence we had at first. (Hebrews 3:14).
Let us therefore draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace to help in time of need (Hebrews 4:16). Since therefore brothers, we have confidence to enter the Holy Place by the blood of Jesus… let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful (Hebrews 10:19-23).
We can confidently say, “The Lord is my Helper, I will not be afraid; what shall man do to me?” (Hebrews 13:6). Beloved if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence before God (1 John 3:21). By this, love is perfected within us, that we may have confidence in the day of judgement; because as He is, so also are we in this world. (1 John 4:17). And now, let us abide in Him, so that when He appears, we may have confidence and not shrink away from Him in shame at His coming. (1 John 2:2). And this is the confidence which we have before Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. (1 John 5:14). And so we pray to Him.
