How to Trust God With the Outcome

What does it actually look like to place something in God’s hands when you care deeply about the outcome?

In the final episode of SPICE Up Your Prayer Life series, E is for Entrust. We’ll explore why entrusting is an action of faith, how we can ask God boldly while still surrendering the answer to Him, and what 1 Peter 5:7 teaches us about casting our cares on the God who cares for us.

You’ll also learn a simple way to identify what you’re still trying to control and practice placing it into God’s hands.

Key Takeaways

Entrust What You Carry — Prayer includes placing the things you deeply care about into God’s care, not just bringing them to Him.

Ask Boldly, Release the Outcome — You can honestly ask God for what you want while trusting Him with the answer.

Trust God’s Character — Faith rests in who God is, not in certainty that He will provide a specific outcome or follow your preferred timeline.

Faith Is Rooted in Grace — Trust is not something to force or manufacture; it begins with God’s gracious action.

Humility Makes Room for Surrender — First Peter connects humbling yourself under God’s authority with casting your anxieties on Him.

God’s Care Shapes What You Can Release — Believing God is good, wise, and caring helps you entrust your worries rather than carry them alone.

Put Entrustment into Practice — Name what you’re asking God to do, notice what you’re trying to control, and identify what you can place in His hands.
