Are you struggling with trusting God?
Do all the facts of your situation seem overwhelmingly against you?
Is your faith wavering in the middle of a crisis that needs faith to be resolved?
If it does, remind yourself of the numerous situations where God saved his people from humanely impossible situations and proved that With God nothing is impossible (Luke 1:37) because as He says, My thoughts are not your thoughts and my ways are not your ways. For as the heavens are above the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts above your thoughts. (Isaiah 55:8-9)
These situations that demonstrate that God’s saving techniques are way superior to ours include:

The first situation that you should remind yourself of so that you can trust God more is that of Pharaoh and Joseph.
God caused Pharaoh to dream a dream that only Joseph could decode even though All the magicians of Egypt and its wise men could not interpret it. (Genesis 41:8) God then caused Pharaoh’s butler who had had his dreams interpreted by Joseph while in jail, remember Joseph and his gift of dream interpretation and he informed Pharaoh of Joseph.
Pharaoh then sent for this prisoner who was good at interpreting dreams and he was so impressed by Joseph’s interpretation and by the fact that Joseph was A man in whom is the Spirit of God (Genesis 41:38) that he promoted him from prisoner to Prime Minister with immediate effect.

God then caused a severe famine which made Joseph’s brothers leave their homes in Canaan and go to Egypt to look for food since it was the only country with food. (Genesis 42:3) On arriving, they found that their brother whom they had sold as a slave, was not only free, but he was the Prime Minister of the entire Egypt.
Therefore, trust God because he can turn the bad things that your enemies have done to you into blessings and you will be able to testify as Joseph did to his brothers that, You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, so that He may bring it about as it is this day in order to save many people. (Genesis 50:20)
So even if your relatives and friends have betrayed you, cut your career short or destroyed your business, or ministry, trust God even if you don’t understand why He allowed it and believe that He can turn it around to bless you because All things work together for good. (Romans 8:28)
