Trust

I realize more and more...how much I need to seek God in each and every matter. When Samuel...or David...or others sought God...He answered them. Why should I not believe that He will answer me as well...when I seek Him.

If I am to make Him LORD of my life...and not rule my own life...then this is a given. I mean...how will I know what His will is...if I don't ask Him? I need to seek Him in every situation...
  • When I answer my emails
  • When I start a new task
  • When I get stuck on a task and need a breakthrough
  • Etc...
Obviously...I need to do what I know I should be doing first. I want success...and His word tells me to meditate on it day and night...then I need to do it. If I am praying and seeking for something...yet not doing the obvious...how stupid is that.

I often try to 'positive think' things into existence...usually without much success. Yet I seem to be so much more successful when I acknowledge the problem and seek God's help.

If I ask God to purify my heart...and He immediately brings things to mind to confess and bring to the light...impure thoughts...anger and frustration...not trusting in Him.

I know what my assignment is. Yet I am trying to do it on my own. I need to trust Him to help me do it...and seek Him at each turn. I am setting my cell phone timer to buzz every 30 minutes...to remind me to pause and seek Him.

I realize that I get all out of whack when I just try to get things done. So, I need to change tactics. I need guidance. I need direction. I need to walk by faith.

Stop

Time to pause...and take a break. I need to refocus and get back on track. I know what I need to do...and even how to to do it. But I am too easily distracted. I do what I want to and feel like...rather than what I should.

I have been using freedom as an excuse to cover up for my laziness. I am frustrated and use that as an excuse for my laziness. I haven't been paying attention to heaven's echoes like I should.

I know there is new stuff ahead...and I want it. But I haven't been doing what I need to and should. So, I pause...rest...and refocus. I wait for direction. I need to rekindle my faith and fear of God.

Everything is changing. My mercy is waiting in the wings to come in response to your cries and groaning in fasting prayer. What will you do? Business as usual? Or will you declare a fast and cry out day and night to Me until I lift My hand? You will soon see that I have good events ahead for you. They will bring you peace, fulfillment and prosperity. You don’t live by feelings but by faith.

“Come outside the tabernacle, your tent of meeting, your normal way of hearing Me. I have some instructions for you.” The river is to nourish you and cause more life to grow in health and happiness. Trust Me in pruning and nourishing.

Today is a day for the Prince of Peace to walk through your heart. He is the good shepherd Who will carry you in His arms. Never will He abandon or forsake you. This continues to be time of purpose. Pour out your heart to Me, and trust Me in getting your thinking, actions and relationships in order.

ARREPENDA-SE de ter sido seu próprio Senhor até agora! Passe a DESCANSAR e ESPERAR em Jesus (Sl 37:7) até que você ouça Sua voz e você, então, tenha condições de ter uma fé legítima (não existe fé verdadeira sem ouvir a voz de Deus) e obedecer ao chamado Dele.

New computer...new setup...new blog!

Exciting stuff going on in my life...with lots of confirmations from God about the mission He has given me.

So, I am just going to keep track of what is going on from time to time.

Success & Prosperity!
