Welcome To Our Official Website

Weakley County Baptists greet you in the Spirit of Christ and the Love of God.

We are a family of 40 cooperating Baptist churches affiliated with the Tennessee Baptist Convention and the Southern Baptist Convention. We are motivated by a desire to serve the Lord by serving people. What ever your need is, we hope there will be something here that will help you in your daily life.

Our Purpose:

We have no reason to exist except as a servant of the churches. We are here to

resource the churches, to encourage pastors, and to promote the carrying out of the

Great Commission as a community of churches.

Core Values:

We have discovered four core values that drive our association. They are:

1. Evangelism: We will desire to see the lost brought to a saving knowledge of Christ.

2. Ministry: We will minister to the spiritual and physical needs of people.

3. Missions: We will obey the Great Commission. Matthew 28:18-20.

4. Training: We will train believers to be like Jesus in every way possible.

Trust in The Lord

Posted on May 19, 2010 in Devotions |

It’s simple. It’s short. Yet it’s incredibly powerful. Proverbs 3:5-6 is one of the most familiar passages in the Bible–with good reason. It sets forth a life-changing truth that is worthy of our attention. Spend three minutes reading this article, and see if you agree.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

Trust in the Lord.

It starts with trust. Any real relationship has to start with some level of trust. It’s the only way a friendship will endure. It’s the only way a marriage will work out. It’s the simple reason why an employer hires workers, or why the workers stay employed. It’s all about trust. Trust in the Lord, however, takes on an entirely new dimension. This is our trust in an eternal, all-powerful, all-wise, all-loving God. He is worthy of our trust. The trust is important, not just because of who God is, but because of the way in which we must trust him: with all your heart. It involves every fiber of your being. That’s the kind of trust we can have in God–a complete, unshakable, deep, abiding trust.

Do Not Lean on Your Own Understanding

Read part 1 first, Trust In The Lord.

Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

Don’t Lean on Your Understanding

The verse involves a positive–something you must do. But it also involves a negative–something you must not do. Don’t lean on your own understanding. Basically, the verse is telling us that we ought not to be self-reliant. We cannot pursue a course of action, a financial decision, a business move, a relationship, or an educational choice, simply based on our own understanding. It must be founded in our trust in God.

Self-reliance is such a deceptive trap. We begin to pride ourselves in something–our savvy, our looks, our intellect, our spirituality, our family, whatever. And when we do, it takes away our trust in the Lord. It has become trust in self. The result is a dangerous compromise that will lead to destruction.
