Building Trust
If you want to build unshakable trust in God and pass your trust tests, you have to let Him teach you intimacy and dependence. These are the roots God is establishing in your life. Intimacy and dependence come only through personal knowledge and encounter. Knowing God‘s name means knowing Him personally and knowing His nature.
There are plenty of people who use the name of God, and maybe they know a lot about Him, but it‘s clear they don‘t really know Him, because they don‘t trust Him and they don‘t seek Him. God doesn‘t expect us to build trust in Him blindly, without knowing His character. He doesn‘t expect us to build trust just on what we‘ve heard about Him. He wants us to build trust on personal knowledge. That‘s the only way to have true intimacy and dependence.

About this Plan
As Christians seek out their God-given purpose, it is natural to expect God to develop the skills and abilities given to believers that would allow them to go into the world and make an impact for the Kingdom. However, the focus is often spent on the vision God gave his Church rather than realizing God's main desire is to develop His children. If Christians want to change the world and "bear fruit" that makes an impact on the world, they must first make roots that last. Using the life of David, Liebscher gives readers three areas to dig in to start building those lasting roots--prayer, service, and community.
