Life is full of decisions, and if we want to make the right choices, the ones that glorify God and benefit us and others, we need the Lord’s guidance, Right?
We need to ask, “Is anything in my life hindering me from hearing what you are saying? If so, what is it?” Cleansing comes by confession, 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
We must submit (SURRENDER) to whatever God instructs us to do. Sometimes we find it difficult to do, we want to know step two before we complete step one of God’s will, we must surrender ourselves.even our children to His timing and guidance. Obeying the will of God is both a humbling and an uplifting experience, remember 1 Peter 5:6 says therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time.
In Mark 11:22-24 it says , And Jesus answered saying to them, “Have faith in God. 23 Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to happen, it will be granted him. 24 Therefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted you. we learn that when we ask, we must believe He is going to give us what we have asked for ,so we must trust that God will show us what to do ,Right? BELIEVE!!!
We must be willing to WAIT, and RECEIVE, Isaiah 64:4 says that God promises to act on our behalf if we will be willing to wait upon Him, we need to learn not to run ahead of Him and try to fix things ourselves, that will only lead to disappointment, God promises that He acts on our behalf when we wait for Him ,, when we obediently seek the will of God, we can be sure that He’ll hear us and give us the wisdom we need to make the right choices, so once we know His will, we have a responsibility to embrace His direction and obey Him completely., we learn this from the book of Mathew chapter 7 vs. 7&8, Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receive, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.
We can find great peace and confidence knowing that we are making decisions based on the guidance we receive from our heavenly father above. There may be many around you that will not understand or even agree with your decisions, but you will because you have heard from the one that matters the most.
Our lives are so strongly affected by our daily choice to seek Gods guidance in each and every circumstance that we encounter, from the very moment in life that we become aware of God and who he is and what He can and will do in our lives if we will only surrender to his will in our life is so so very important.
If we call God “The Great Physician” we need to stand on that, if we surrender a need to him we need to surrender it and believe that God will take care of it, why? Because he said he would, trust in what you hear from God; believe in what he says He will do! Blessings
