Today Phil preached in the AIC Kijabe church. The topic was "Trusting Christ" and the text, Proverbs 3:5-8. The challenge was to truly trust Christ in every way and in all things. Trusting Christ is totally connected to knowing Christ (the message he shared last time). The more we know Christ, the more we trust Him. Our faith, in action, is based upon, and fueled by our practical understanding of Christ.
Often we speak that we trust Christ but never trust Him in reality and practically. To illustrate this, Phil called up 10 volunteers and told them to stand in two lines...
Often God calls us to trust Him, and we say we will follow, we say we will trust, but we never step out in faith. Trusting God requires a move to action. Truth is proven by action. Is God faithful? Act in faith!
If God calls us out in faith, we cannot remain with words only. We must go forward and trust Him in reality! So, to complete the illustration, Phil fell backwards off the stage into the men's arms.
May Christ increase our faith, and lead us to trust Him completely. He will send His revival fire as we press on to know Christ and as we trust Him with all that we are! Oh God guide us as we walk in trust!

Amen!! "Faith with out works is Dead." "Without Faith it is impossible to please God." "The Just shall live by Faith."
