So many people wait for problem to occur in their lives before putting trust in God.. Some don't even remember there is God. As a result they live anyhow to the disappointment of God. God is not pleased with this attitude of man. God is not happy with the nature of man's life and problems that he encounters every now and then, He is prepared to help man [Rev 3:20] but the ' question is: ls man willing?
Revelation 3:20:
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, then I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with me."
Revelation 3:21:
"He who overcomes, I will give to him to sit down with me on my throne, as I also overcame, and sat down with my Father on his throne."
In today's world living beings that God created are going against God in His word and commandment for them. People are no longer after the things of God but after the things of the flesh [money and materials accumulation]. They have wondered away from God's presence and they no more do God's will but the devils. God is just watching, waiting patiently for man to repent of his evil ways. Thus, when to trust in God's word is now and always till eternity. This is why the scripture declares that those standing should stand firm lest they fall.
Revelation 3:15-16
“I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot."
"So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will vomit you out of my mouth."
Trusting God in his word is a continuous exercise of faith till Christ comes. We are not to trust Him today then relax tomorrow. No, we have to be watchful and prepared at all time lest the trumpet takes us unaware. God wants us to trust in Him always in anything we do [our family, marriage, job, business, ministry, health, life, etc]. Everything belongs to God and as such, we must trust Him in all and with all [1Cor.10:25]. In time of sorrow, trouble, joy, and weeping, we must learn to trust in God at all times not minding the situation around us, in all things we must learn to give God thanks for all things worketh for good to them that believe.
Just what I needed to read this morning.
I asked myself a question while reading - why do we really need to trust in God?
The answer to that question may differ. We need to do so solely because we love him, we also know the time left is reduced. We definitely want tobe on his side when Armageddon comes.
Like you mentioned, it's important to note that trusting in him is a continuous process.
We all always trust God in everything we do be it small or big we must trust God
