The main idea of the message this past week is “Trust In The Lord For He Knows Best”. Examples were given of how
important it is to trust in the Lord in the different circumstances we face. We have to fully put our trust and faith in
Him because He knows best. We can choose to trust ourselves or trust Him.
QUESTIONS
Proverbs: 3:5-6
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.
Read the following verses: -Proverbs 3:19-20, Proverbs 8:27-29, Proverbs 28:26, Jeremiah 17:9, John 15:4, James 1:22,
John 10:10
1) Share with your group an example of a time in your life when you fully put your trust in the Lord. Now read
Jeremiah 17:9, and give an example of a time when you trusted in your own heart and the result.
2) Why do you think trusting in the Lord does not come naturally to us?

counsel. What was the result?
5) What is your favorite example in the Bible of someone who trusted in the Lord? Now give an example of someone
who didn’t fully trust in the Lord and the result. What conclusions can be made from each example?
NEXT STEPS / CHALLENGE:
