Okay, So we are here again with another Friday! I'm so glade that this week is done! It's been busy busy busy! Has busy as it is I have been in "My Own World' This is not good. God asks of one thing. To remember him through all the times of your life! and this week at times I may have forgotten to say thanks and or ask God for guidance. We must come and see that above all God is the one that really brings us to him closer and closer to make the right decisions.
How many of us let God think for us? How many of us let God make our daily instructions. ( I could do this more) How many of us need God more and more everyday? Well we all do. And we all need to let God in and to let him be our mind. We need to let God come and make our decisions and let God tell us what to do. Because for after all it is God we bow down at. But letting God speak and act through us is VERY important. So it's not just letting him act for you but letting him think for you. We get told the message from the Bible, he tells us whats on his mind. And that's what should be on our minds.
Letting God Act is something more than just doing good deeds it's fully accepting him in your heart. We hear the message from the bible and then God says it to us again in many different shapes and forms. From the Bible we must meditate and we must learn and become one with the unity with God. We MUST follow the Lord and we MUST allow God in to act and to speak to us.
Joshua 1: 8
"This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have success."
When we go to confession and God speaks for us, He is saying his own plan to us! He is saying his love and peace and perfect plan right in front of us! With the words of us saying it we can stand with God and not be ashamed. For when we let God speak through us we can say truly our sins without being a liar to God. For when we talk to God he will answer back If we give him time to respond that is. WE MUST LET GOD SPEAK FOR US!
1 John 1 9-10
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us.
Now, that God as Our word in confession that we have sinned and we have let him in, we must not carry our daily burdens by our selves. We must let God carry them. We must not carry around our day not carrying. We must let God carry our day. We must not sin or not do things our self, we must let God do it for us! God is wanting to be let in and so we shall pray for that that he might come in and change our lives with the words of his own mouth.
2 Corinthians 5: 6-8
6 Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord. 7 For we live by faith, not by sight. 8 We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord."
What a gift that God gives us His thoughts!! Yet so often we exchange them for our own. Strange really that we would value our opinions over His... but grateful for grace and the opportunity to turn to Him again and be receieved.
