Because we Trust the Lord

Kathy — They had called out to God during the battle, and he answered their prayers because they trusted him, (1Chron. 5:20).  There’s a lot of reasons we cry out to God during battle.  Pain, fear, offense, anger, pity, grief and hopelessness are some understandable causes for a “cry out”, but if we park on any of those causes, the battle can become a stalled storm we cannot see beyond.  If we sit in neutral gear feeling helpless, the siege continues to smother. Crying out in “park” or “neutral” gear and racing the motor and burning fuel doesn’t get us anywhere.  But if we cry out because we trust the Lord to hear, to care and to do something, we shift into a gear to move forward.  Trust moves us into the momentum of His answer and gets us on the road to His outcome.
