There are some who say, God has given us common sense to handle situations on our own, and we don’t need to bother Him for every little thing. That can’t be true because God’s Word says, acknowledge Him in all our ways (Prov. 3:6).

God wants us to rely on Him for every little situation. Not just the major situations. It may seem like we’ve made the correct decision using our own wisdom, skills, and efforts at the time, but relying on ourselves only leads to failure (Prov. 16:25).

Reliance on God, displays our trust in God. If our reliance is elsewhere, we have to ask ourselves, do we really trust God?

2 Chronicles 14:11 Then Asa called to the LORD his God and said, “LORD, there is no one like you to help the powerless against the mighty. Help us, LORD our God, for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this vast army. LORD, you are our God; do not let mere mortals prevail against you.”
