We must depend on God for our salvation.
We should rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead. II Corinthians 1:9
We wait on God for him to strengthen us.
Those who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength, for He gives power to the faint, and strengthens the powerless. Isaiah 40:29, 31
We trust in the Lord and don’t take matters into our own hands.
Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him, and he will act. He will make your vindication shine like the light, and the justice of your cause like the noonday. Psalm 37:5-6
We trust in the Lord to fulfill all his promises.
Show diligence so as to realize the full assurance of hope to the very end, so that you may not become sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises. Hebrews 6:11-12
We cannot depend on anything or anyone else who might want to take God’s place.
Do not put your trust in mortals, in whom there is no help. When their breath departs, they return to the earth; on that very day their plans perish. Happy are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD their God, Psalm 146:3-5
If we rely on God and not on our own thinking, he will bless us.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not depend on your own insight. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6
Those who rely on God call out to him to help them.
And will not God grant justice to his chosen ones who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long in helping them? I tell you, he will quickly grant justice to them. And yet, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?" Luke 18:7-8
We focus on God’s kingdom and righteousness and rely on God to meet our needs.
Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What will we eat?' or 'What will we drink?' or 'What will we wear?' But strive first for the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:31,33.
