(a chapter from the section, The Growth Paradigm, of my book, Heaven on Earth)
Trust God in His promises. His promises are good and faithful. Take courage and step out in faith. Start with small steps. Grow into bigger steps. Let God grow our capacity to trust Him. God hasn’t changed, but we may have. We have allowed God to enlarge our capacities.
Trust in the Lord
Fiddle dee dee, fiddle dee dum
Mangoes and guavas, cherries and plums
Fruits of our labor, fruits of Your hand
What a glorious God You are
Do we know what Your glorious plans are?
Just step out in faith, one step at a time
You give us the desires of our hearts
If we delight in You, Lord Almighty God
You said: Ask and we will receive,
Seek and we will find,
Knock and the door shall be opened.
For those who ask will receive,
those who seek will find,
to those who knock, the door shall be opened.
The earnest prayer of the righteous avails much
It has great power and produces wonderful results
Trust in the Lord with all of our heart,
and lean not on our own understanding.
In all our ways we acknowledge Him,
and He will make our paths straight.
Bible References:

Delight yourself in the LORD

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
