How do we know that trusting in the Lord brings safety?
Answered in 1 source
Trusting in the Lord brings safety as His word assures us that those who seek refuge in Him will be secure (Proverbs 29:25).
The assurance of safety when putting trust in the Lord is rooted in the promises of Scripture. Proverbs 29:25 declares that those who trust in the Lord shall be safe, indicating divine protection from all that can harm us eternally. This safety is not about physical security but rather a spiritual safeguard against sin, death, and the fear of man. The New Testament reinforces this understanding, particularly in Philippians 1:21, where Paul expresses that dying is gain for the believer, showcasing the ultimate safety found in Christ. God has bound Himself to His word, which is a foundation for believers to rest their hope upon.
