Roll your works upon the Lord--commit and trust them wholly to Him; [He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will, and] so shall your plans be established and succeed.
– Proverbs 16:3
If you are human, and I know you are (well... Most of you? haha) You have had a time in life where you had to make a major decision...
You know what I'm talkin' about: 1.) about to make a change in your job/career... 2) or your church... 3) or even concerning your personal life...
You KNOW you need divine guidance to make such HUGE decisions. And you're hoping desperately that you are truly hearing the voice of the Lord in regards to your decision.
If that's your situation, READ MY LIPS (or my Blog)... DO NOT PANIC!!! Being led by the Lord isn't some complicated process that only the spiritual "BMOG's / BWOG's" can master.
(That's Big Men of God and Big Women of God ) hahaha
I found that out years ago when I was a brand spankin' new Christian. I wanted to live in a way that was pleasing to God, but I didn't know how to make decisions that were in line with His perfect will for my life.
Then one day as I was studying The Amplified Bible,( I love me some Amplified, CUZ it's Bible on Steroids!!!) I came across Proverbs 16:3. Immediately, I latched onto this verse and began to use it in my every day life--and I can tell you now from experience, it works!!!!!!!
God is no respecter of persons....If it worked for this goofy whiteboy, then it will work for you as well... if..... you'll do what it says.
Roll your works over on God, commit your ways to Him, trust them wholly to Him.
He'll start adjusting your thoughts to be like His.... Oh Yah!! Until, you get to a place where you just know the right thing to do. and you do it!!!
Hey like everything else spiritual, faith is involved. One of the requirements is trust, and you won't be able to do that without feeding on God's Word.
Then as you practice rolling your works upon the Lord and trusting Him, you become more confident in your ability to hear His voice. Start now with whatever problem is bothering you. Pray and trust God wholly with it. In other words, when you pray... Kick that Faith Gear in... and believe you'll receive what you pray for. Stop your worryin' and frettin'... and begin believin'.
Learn this (make it your Hood Habit) that way it doesn't matter whether you've been a Christian 30 seconds or 30 years, your plans shall be established and succeed!! That's Bible Talk!!!
Have a Blessed Week!! See you next Monday!!!
