Trust
In The Lord
With
All
Your Heart
Scripture
Proverbs
3
Observation
Have
you memorized Proverbs 3:5-6? It has to be one of the most quoted
scriptures in the Bible just behind John 3:16!
If
you haven't memorized it yet then get to work … it is a great
passage. Once you have it memorized then God can use it to help keep
us on track.
If
you happened to have read Romans 7 in your quiet time this morning
like I did then you know that we need lots of help making good
decisions and doing the right thing!
The
old nature, that old sin nature, is always trying to take us in the
wrong direction! Inside of each one of us there is a spiritual battle
going on (if we are Christians) between our old and new nature.
Putting
God first and trusting Him with all of our hearts is a decision that
you and I must make every day.
When
ever I hear about a Christian leader stepping down from his or her
leadership position because of being caught in some kind of sin it
always reminds me to guard my heart or I could find myself in the
same bad place ... and so could you.
It
is why you and I need to be in God's Word everyday!
Application
I
will trust the Lord with all of my heart and I will not depend on my
own understanding. How about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, don't ever let me trust in my own understanding because I
mess up every time I do. This world is way to complicated and besides
that I still have an old sin nature that wants to pull me in the
wrong direction. So I pray for strength. Help me to be a man of
integrity. Help me stay away from stupid sins that will mess up my
life and mess up my relationship with You.
