God’s Will or My Will? One of the greatest temptations in our Christian walk is to do our own will and not God’s. Because of this we need to learn how to say “Thy Will Be Done” in all that we do, all that we say, and all of our plans. Have you been so excited about a great plan that you’ve made? You put everything in place, and are ready to execute. Then you pray, “God please bless this plan“. Although this may be well intentioned, the plan was never first submitted to God. So, we can’t expect God to bless a plan that He was not even a part in making. In Proverbs 3:5-6, the Bible tells us to “Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Knowing this, we need to submit each plan and idea, no matter how great they sound. Likewise we can rest assured that “The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.” (Psalm 37:23) |
Time of Testing
When we are in a season of trial, doing our own will can become especially tempting. We are likely tired of the pain, the waiting, and the frustration. We just want out, but we know that if we take it into our own hands, we will be going outside of God’s Will and plan. After all, these are the seasons that we MUST press into God’s presence. Press into prayer. Press into reading the Word and be encouraged by your fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Most importantly, don’t give up. God is doing something in you; if you wait, you will receive a reward, and good fruit will come forth from your obedience. Remember the Lord’s Prayer and Be Encouraged! |
