Sometimes, that’s your answer when you’re in the midst of a trial. Just tell God and no one else. I have walked with Him long enough to know what pleases Him; so that’s what I offer Him. Of course, you could be at a stage where the Lord is dealing with your pride or your faith hasn’t been developed, and He could very well instruct you to divulge your situation to others. So, do that.
Well, the Lord takes good care of me by trusting Him always. So, when I hit a strange place financially over the past couple of months He encouraged me not to mention it to anyone. Things appeared to get progressively worse, and yet I didn’t miss a beat in praising Him and encouraging His people because of a promise of provision that He made me in 1996.
Well, someone contacted me Saturday to say that they had some money for me for today (Monday), and some one else contacted me Sunday to say that they had some money for me for Tomorrow (Tuesday). Then someone left money by my house after church yesterday.
For all of this and for each person I am so grateful, but I am most of all so grateful that the Lord taught me to trust Him. He always said that if one door closes that He would open two or three more in its place, and He has never failed to do so.
I am God’s responsibility because He called me to follow Him in a completely sold out manner when I was 33, and He reassured me that He was a covenant maker, not a covenant breaker. His Word has been tested and tried in my life, and I can say that He is faithful. I am 70 and still single, and His best for me is about to unfold!
It might get scary sometimes, but you can trust Him.
