When seeking God’s will it can be hard waiting for God to
answer. Sometimes we want to hurry and rush into what we think is His will and
then wonder why things aren’t going too smoothly. I know this is a marriage
blog but I have been having a burden to write on this topic. The bonus of this
post is that when my heart is right, It can make a difference in my marriage
also!
But seek
ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall
be added unto you ( Matthew 6:33)
He tells us in His Word that first and foremost we have to
have our hearts right with Him in order for Him to perform His will in our
lives. I can truly say that when I quit flirting with the World and really gave
my all to God and allowed Him to work in my life, That is when I saw a major
change for the better in my life, home and family. By seeking Him in prayer and
fasting, it shows our sincerity in wanting a different life and God can begin
to show us areas in our lives we need to work on. Not to mention our Hubbys and children see it too :)
Ask, and
it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened
unto you: (Matthew 7:7)
This verse kinda goes along with the first, when we truly
begin asking in prayer, seeking on our knees for Him to move in us, and humble
knocking with our hearts, we can begin to see and feel Him guiding us into the
direction He has for us to take. His ways aren’t as ours and neither His
thoughts as ours, don’t get discouraged if His plan is different from how you
imagined it. His plan is always better than ours!
And all
things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.( Matthew 21:22)
Have faith and believe that He is working and I will receive
what He has for me! He is my Guide in this life, He has already walked this
path before me!
Be still,
and know that I am God: ( Psalm 46:10)
He knows all things before we get there! He is always on
time and working. We may not see it immediately but you can rest assured in His
promises that He is working in our best interest!
For This
God is our God for ever and ever: He will be our guide even unto death. ( Psalm 48:14)
Isn’t it great to know that our God is forever, He will be a guide to us till we pass on from this life! We can live knowing that as long as I
give my 100% He will give me His! Trust Him and He will show His will. Remember
it may not be today but it will come and we can be thankful we waited on Him!
He knows our best interest, He knows our needs and desires! He knows what is
best for me!
I'd love for you to share something and/or verses that may encourage you when you are seeking God’s will in your life or
in situations that arise sometimes?
Be Blessed,
