It is not God’s will for us to be weighed down with our burdens.

He’ll give you rest if you just give them to Him.

Matthew 11:28 (KJV) – come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

God is all-knowing and all-powerful.

Yet we lack confidence in our asking.

Ask according to His will, you’ll receive it.

I John 5:14-15 (KJV) – and this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he heareth us: and if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.

We need to stop thinking we can fool God.

Man yes, but God – no.

God knows you better than you know yourself.

Psalm 139: 2, 4 (KJV) – thou knoweth my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether.

Don’t ignore those less fortunate that are crying out for help.

If you do, you’ll be ignored when you are in need.

Proverbs 21:13 (KJV) – whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.

We all think our way is the right way.

But is your motive for the right reasons?

God looks at your motives within your heart.

Proverbs 12:2 (KJV) – every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the Lord pondereth the hearts.

The way God sees it, is the way it is.

Psalm 119:160 (KJV) – thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.

Whatever the enemy tries against you will not succeed.

Because God got His children’s back.

Isaiah 54:17 (KJV) – no weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.

Pride is weak to God.

Humility is weak to man.

It’s better to be humble, which is strength, than to be prideful, which is weak.

Proverbs 16:19 (KJV) – better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.

We have a tendency to live only for ourselves.

We are to live unto the Lord, not ourselves.

II Corinthians 5:15 (KJV) – and that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.

When your ways, not just one thing, but your walk, is pleasing to God, He’ll make your enemies be at peace with you.

Proverbs 16:7 (KJV) – when a man’s ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.
