WHEN TRUSTING GOD FEELS IMPOSSIBLE—BUT YOU DO IT ANYWAY

Have you ever cried out to God, only to feel like the heavens are silent?
Have you ever placed your trust in Him, only to watch everything around you fall apart?

I know that place.
I know what it feels like to beg God for answers and be met with nothing but silence.
I know what it feels like to wonder if He sees, if He hears, if He even cares.
I know what it’s like to wake up in the middle of the battle, surrounded by enemies, crushed by betrayal, drowning in heartbreak, and thinking—God, where are You?

But let me tell you something—faith isn’t built in the easy places.
Faith is built in the fire.
Faith is tested in the waiting.
Faith grows when trusting God feels like the hardest thing to do.

Because trust is not a feeling.
It’s a choice.

THE ENEMY DOES NOT GET THE FINAL SAY

“I trust in You; do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph over me.” (Psalm 25:2)

David wrote these words while surrounded by enemies.
He wasn’t sitting on a throne, dressed in royal robes, living in victory.
He was in the middle of the battle, crying out for God to rescue him.

And maybe that’s where you are today.

Maybe you’re looking at your situation, your broken heart, your unanswered prayers, and you’re wondering, How much longer, God? How much more do I have to endure?

Let me remind you—your enemies do not get the final say.
The people who betrayed you do not get to define you.
The pain you’re feeling is not where your story ends.

“No one who hopes in You will ever be put to shame.” (Psalm 25:3)

Your enemies may rise against you, but they will not prevail.
The enemy may be whispering lies, but he will not have the last word.
Because God is still writing your story.

And what the enemy meant for evil, God is about to use for good.

WHEN YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO, CRY OUT TO HIM

“Show me Your ways, Lord, teach me Your paths. Guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are God my Savior, and my hope is in You all day long.” (Psalm 25:4-5)

When the weight of life feels too heavy, ask Him to guide you.
When you feel lost and broken, ask Him to teach you.
When fear grips your heart, stand on His truth.

Because God does not abandon His people.
He sees every tear.
He hears every cry.
He knows every silent prayer you’ve whispered in the dark.

And even when you can’t see it, He is working behind the scenes.

SURRENDER THE NEED TO UNDERSTAND

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” (Proverbs 3:5-6)

Let’s be real—trusting God is easy when life is good.
But when your heart is shattered? When your plans have collapsed? When the people you trusted have turned their backs on you?

That’s when trust becomes warfare.

That’s when faith isn’t about understanding—it’s about surrender.

Surrendering the pain.
Surrendering the questions.
Surrendering the need to know why.

Because God doesn’t need you to figure it all out.
He just needs you to trust that He already has.

WHEN FEAR RISES, REMEMBER WHO HOLDS YOUR FUTURE

“Have no fear of sudden disaster.” (Proverbs 3:25)

The enemy wants you to stay in fear.
He wants you to believe that your suffering is permanent, that the pain will never end, that you are stuck where you are.

But he is a liar.

Because the same God who raised Joseph from the pit…
The same God who delivered David from his enemies…
The same God who rescued Daniel from the lions…

Is the same God who is fighting for you.

You are not alone.
You are not abandoned.
You are not forgotten.

PRAY BOLDLY. BELIEVE FIERCELY. STAND FIRM.

“If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.” (Matthew 21:22)

So today, I challenge you—pray like you believe it’s already done.
Declare your victory while you’re still in the battle.
Trust that even when you don’t see it, God is working behind the scenes.

Stand firm.
Trust boldly.
Pray fiercely.

Because this is not where your story ends.

Your breakthrough is coming.
Your restoration is near.
And your faith—this faith that you are holding onto right now—WILL NOT be put to shame.

Will you trust Him, even when it doesn’t make sense? 
Will you surrender what you don’t understand? 
Will you step into the faith that moves mountains? 

Drop a in the comments if you’re choosing to trust God today!

Because victory belongs to the Lord.
And He is not done with you yet.

AMEN!
