To trust in flesh is utter foolishness
because all men are flesh and they can die any time. All men are
liars, not because they always want to lie but because their
knowledge is incomplete. The only one whom we can trust in is Jesus
Christ.
It is written in Jeremiah 17:5 “Cursed
is the man who puts his trust in mankind and whose heart turns away
from the Lord his God.” Yet, people trust in people because they
can see people, they cannot see God. They don't trust in God because
he is not real to them, they don't trust in Jesus because Jesus is
not REAL to them. Even believers do not trust in Jesus because they
do not know Him.
Many believers will stand in front of
Jesus and He will say to them:”Go away from Me I never knew you,
you workers of wickedness.” That is because they never knew Him,
they never trusted Him and they never followed Him. You only get to
know Jesus when you put your trust in Him and you OBEY Him because
then He reveals Himself to you. As long as you still trust in
yourself and in other people you will never get to know Jesus because
Jesus is not your source of supply. If you OBEY Jesus and deny
yourself, abandon your own wisdom, abandon your own means and put
your trust in Him, then you will get to know Him, because only then
you will pray and He will answer. As long as you still trust in
yourself you have no reason to pray. As long as you trust in other
people you have no reason to ask Jesus anything and He will not
supply to you because you will not give Him the glory or the honor,
you will not recognize Him.
People trust in people and they end up
in eternal damnation because they never get to know Jesus Christ for
real!
