Happy new month to you! Its quiet exciting to know that the Lord
is doing a new thing in your life this year, for me the Lord has been so
faithful and it's been so amazing so far.
This morning as i was on my devotion i got this sweet inspiration
and of course wants you to share in it.
You see, sometimes our prayers are not answered because we've got
a lot of "trust issues" i.e. not trusting God in totality
in everything and anything. And we've got to work on ourselves to eliminate
this "character threat" for our prayers to be answered!
Recall trust is "firm believe in the reliability,
ability, or strength of someone or confidence place in someone, making that
person the nominal owner of our property and in this case our life"
A lot of us are scared to lose "what we think we've got"
for what we are praying to have, Solomon tells us;
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not
on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make
your paths straight" Proverbs 3:5-6 NIV
In other words we should be a firm believer in the reliability,
truth, ability and strength of God, more so have confidence in HIM making him
the owner of our life! i.e BELIEVING GOD IN EVERYTHING and ANYTHING.
Remember most times if not all the times you need to lose sight of
where you are coming from to get to where you are going to trusting God in the
process.
Come to think of this, if you trust the fact that your well fueled
car will take you to your destination without hitches on way, you need to trust
God even more that whenever you ask Him anything in prayer believing it's done,
He will do it for you. I bet you, if you give God a little of the trust you put
on your car or any other stuff, mountains will move on your behalf, then when
you give him all, you can ask the earth the stop its rotation and it will
happen!
Surprised?!! Ok you remember Joshua a trustworthy servant of God,
when he asked the sun to stand still, it was done right, of course by now you
know the sun does not move but the earth does so literally he stopped
the earth from rotating on its axis for a time! You can do even much more for
it is written
" The glory of this latter
temple shall be greater than the former,’ says the Lord of hosts. ‘And in this
place I will give peace,’ says the Lord of hosts.” Haggai 2:9
And who is this temple that the Lord of Host is talking about ?
You! You are the Temple of the most High God for it is written;
" Or do you not know that your body is the temple of
the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your
own?" 1Corinthains 6-19. You see, there is so
much you get when you trust God in total
Jesus tells us;
" And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that
the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name,
and I will do it" John 14:13-14
Now you have heard from the horse's mouth! What are you waiting
for? what's holding you back? take a chill and look back it's not worth it!
It's time to take that step "trusting God in totality" and see where
HE takes you! the result might not be swift but then trust Him anyway the
results will sure come because
"This is the confidence we have in approaching God:
that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us" 1 John
5:14 NIV Not only does he hear he answers us!
So my Dear whenever you decide don't forget to "Leave the
driver's sit when you ask God to take over" there can't be two drivers on
the same sit at a time.
Just TRUST HIM IN EVERYTHING and ANYTHING.
Am a Testimony of this, and will be glad sharing in your testimony
too till then, i pray that "my God will meet all your
needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus" Amen.
Philippians 4:19 NIV.
Wishing you a blissful month!
Very networks...
