Donnie McClurkin – We’ve Come This Far By Faith/I Will Trust In The Lord!

Proverbs 3:5-6 (ESV)

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

I remember 1999 just like yesterday, as it was a very intense year for many of us. I remember everyone being scared about the Y2K, and entering into the New Millennium. Just like then, over 12 years ago, and here we are with iphones, ipads, face-time, etc.

Most of us did not know what to expect. All I know is that I went to church and got my praise on, went home and everything, including all our computers were just fine.

I said all that reminiscing on that significant day to say this:.. ~ 2014 is going to be just fine!!!

Our advice to all of of our subscribers, family and friends: “Keep your trust in God!” No matter what man says: “Trust God!”

2014 – we are trusting God with our very lives as we’ve always done in the past years with miraculous results.

Trust God, and watch the blessings of the Lord overtake your life in 2014 and always.. Of note, we did not just say above that it was going to be easy trusting, but just know that each trial comes to make us strong! Keep your hands in the master hands and everything in our lives will work out fine!

We are saying good bye to 2013 and praising our way into 2014 “TRUSTING GOD” with all thine heart… We will not lean to our own understanding, because when the road gets rough, we may not always understand, but God knows and understands totally.

This is a surrender to him on this last day of 2013 as we walk into 2014 with a greater mindset than we had in 2013!

To the choirmaster: according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation.

They only plan to thrust him down from his high position. They take pleasure in falsehood. They bless with their mouths, but inwardly they curse. Selah For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence, for my hope is from him.
