Simply Trusting

March 16, 2026 | David Jeremiah

He trusted in the Lord God of Israel, so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah.
2 Kings 18:5

King Hezekiah faced two crises in a short period of time. His kingdom was invaded by the Assyrian army, and he contracted a terminal disease (see 2 Kings 19–20). Navigating one crisis is hard enough, but how often we’re hit by multiple calamities! Has this happened to you? Are several pressures bearing down on you?

2 Kings 18:1-8

Hezekiah trusted in the Lord God. His problems were humanly unsolvable. But God can do more than we can. In times of discouragement, we must turn to His promises and seek them out in His presence.

It’s easy to get discouraged in this world, and that can lead to doubt. But when we feel we have nowhere left to turn, we can encourage ourselves in the Lord through Bible study and prayer. When our faith is faltering, we need to turn to Christ and allow Him to strengthen us in our faith. Psalm 112:7 says of the child of God, “He will not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord.”

You can do that today!

Trusting as the moments fly, trusting as the days go by; trusting Him whate’er befall, trusting Jesus, that is all.
