Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 3:5-6
If Jesus Christ is Lord of your life, you will give Him the first consideration in every decision you make. You’ll ask, “What is God’s will in this? What is Jesus wanting to do in this? What will glorify my Father?”
Have you ever worked for a company and they decided to transfer you? So many people, because of their financial obligations, discuss it with family and friends, then make plans for the move. But the transfer happens so quickly, sometimes prayer is forgotten.
Friend, if God wants you to go, then go. If God doesn’t want you to go, then you need to stay. But you’ll never know until you get alone with God and let Him tell you what He wants.
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
