Preached by Rev. Ed Brouwer at The Gathering Place, Osoyoos

Psalm 100:3 (KJV) “Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.”

You can trust Him.

He’s the one who made us.  It is He who made us and not we ourselves.  The heavens declare the glory of God and the     firmament shows forth His handiwork.

No means of measure can define His limitless love, no farseeing telescope can bring into visibility the coastline of His vast supply.

I wish I could describe Him for you.
· He is indescribable because He is                incomprehensible.

· The Pharisees couldn't stand Him, but they couldn't stop Him. 
· Pilate could find no fault, and the false witnesses couldnt agree. 
· Herod couldnt kill Him. 
· Death couldnt handle Him and the grave could not hold Him!  

For thine is the Kingdom, the Power and the Glory, forever and ever.  AMEN.

BUT Praise God Almighty - You can trust Him!

Please hear me - You can trust Him!

You can't impeach Him
and He's not going to resign.
YOU CAN TRUST HIM!!!

This incredible truth is the recurring theme that has been playing out in your life…..
· everything
· every situation
· every crisis
· every pain
· every lesson
· everything has been a drawing of your spirit to trusting in God.

It has nothing to do with getting what you are hoping for, no matter how justified that may be.

Trust is about knowing that God is going to be there, taking care of you….
· even when you are walking in the shadow
· even when you are stumbling in the            valley
· even when your bank account is empty
· even when you are lonely
· even when your child is sick
· even when relationships break

Trust has nothing to do with the
good times, but has everything
to do with the bad.

When you feel like you can't get up, you can't move on, you won't be OK.

How can we not trust a God
like our God?

Christ died for us, died for our sins, and that alone should be enough that we’d want to worship Him & trust Him forever.

But He didn't stop there. 
· He has healed us
· He has guided us
· He has delivered us
· He has blessed us
· He defends us
· He rewards us
· He loves us

I am hoping that you will hear me today – because no matter what you are dealing with, God is for you.  He has already laid out a plan for your life.

Whatever you are going through, there is an end and God has ordained it.  I don't know what it is and neither do you, but He does and He is faithful, you can Trust Him!

His mercy is everlasting….His love never ends….He is always the same….His grace is sufficient….He reigns in righteousness….His yoke is easy….His burden is light….His Word is enough!

He is: The Rock of Ages….The Cornerstone….The Sure Foundation….He is Victorious….He is Mighty….He is Coming Again….He is Alive….He is the Good Shepherd….The Lion of Judah….The Sacrificial Lamb….The Baptizer of Fire and Holy Ghost and He is your faithful friend!

I hope this message will fill you with great comfort.
