Trust the Son
Have you ever seen two people that needed to be on the same page about something, but just weren’t? Maybe it was your parents, your boss and your boss’ boss, or two friends. You had a question, so you asked one person and got one answer, but then you got a completely different answer from the other. How confusing is that?
That is something that never happens with God and His Son, Jesus.
John 3:34-35 (NIV) tells us, "For the one whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives the Spirit without limit. The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands." These verses show us how special Jesus is to God and how much power and love God has given Him.
Jesus speaks the words of God, knows the will of God, and has the power of God. They are always on the same page.
Because Jesus speaks the words of God, we can trust that everything He says is true and reflects who God is accurately.
Because Jesus has the power of God, we can believe that what He says will come to pass.
God loves Jesus. God speaks through Jesus. This means we can trust Jesus completely. He has all the power and authority and is speaking Truth because what He speaks is directly from God.
In our daily lives, we often face moments of uncertainty and darkness. Sometimes our lives are made confusing or difficult by arguments or disagreements. No matter what, we know that God and Jesus are one. Jesus was a perfect example of the heart of God, so all His love and sacrifice teaches us even more about who God is.
So, let's use this message in our lives. Let’s trust Jesus fully because He speaks for God and has unlimited power. Let’s also try to be like Jesus, speaking God’s words and trusting in His power.
Proverbs 16
English Standard Version
16 The plans of the heart belong to man,
but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord.
2 All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes,
but the Lord weighs the spirit.[a]
3 Commit your work to the Lord,
and your plans will be established.
4 The Lord has made everything for its purpose,
even the wicked for the day of trouble.
5 Everyone who is arrogant in heart is an abomination to the Lord;
be assured, he will not go unpunished.
6 By steadfast love and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for,
and by the fear of the Lord one turns away from evil.
7 When a man's ways please the Lord,
he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
8 Better is a little with righteousness
than great revenues with injustice.
9 The heart of man plans his way,
but the Lord establishes his steps.
10 An oracle is on the lips of a king;
his mouth does not sin in judgment.
11 A just balance and scales are the Lord's;
all the weights in the bag are his work.
12 It is an abomination to kings to do ...
