Don’t Make Sense

When things happen that don’t make sense to us, we try our best to understand it. We must accept, that things won’t always make sense to us.

Know, that God is in control of everything. His ways and thoughts are higher than ours. He knows our beginning and our end, we just have to trust Him.

Isaiah 55:9 (KJV) – for as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Change Me

Most of us have a tendency of trying to change others, or expecting others to change to our likeness.

What if someone was trying to change you?

Examine yourselves, not others.

Psalm 139: 23-24 (KJV) – search me, O God and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts; and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

II Corinthians 13:5 (KJV) – examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?

Where Is Your Faith

Why do we ask God for something, then turn around and ask 2-3 others for what we just asked God for?

Where is your faith?

I John 5:14-15 (KJV) – and this is the confidence that we have in Him, if we ask any thing 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.

Hebrews 11:1 (KJV) – now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Stop Giving In

God wants to fed us, but we’d rather feed satan.

Stop giving in to satan. God gives you a way out.

I Corinthians 10:13 (KJV) – there hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

Lead

We have to learn to be obedient, follow instructions, in order to know how to lead.

Leadership is a decision, so is obedience. You just have to decide.

Mark 16:15 (KJV) – and he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

Romans 6:16 (KJV) – know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

Be Strong

How can you be strong in a relationship, when you’re unwilling to be uncomfortable to grow in your singleness?

God commanded you to be strong and courageous.

Joshua 1:9 (KJV) – have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

Can’t Be Trusted

Lying lips don’t trust others, and wonder why they are not trusted by others.

Lying lips can’t be trusted with the truth.

Proverbs 26:28 (KJV) – a lying tongue hateth those that are afflicted by it; and a flattering mouth worketh ruin.

Jeremiah 9:5 (KJV) – and they will deceive every one his neighbour , and will not speak he truth, they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.

His Plans

God’s plans for you always ends in victory!

You’ll never know, if you keep putting your plans before His.

I Corinthians 15:57 (KJV) – but thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Jeremiah 29:11 (KJV) – for I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
