TREASURES FROM GOD’S WORD | PROVERBS 1-6

“Trust in Jehovah With All Your Heart”

A man in Bible times prays
Jehovah is worthy of our complete trust. The meaning of his name builds our confidence in his ability to fulfill all of his promises. Prayer is an important part of building trust in him. Proverbs chapter 3 assures us that Jehovah will reward our trust in him by ‘making our paths straight.’

  • trusts in his own thinking or that of the world

One who trusts in Jehovah . . .

  • cultivates a close relationship with him through Bible study, meditation, and prayer
  • seeks his guidance by searching for Bible principles when making decisions
