Romans 11:33-36

Most of us enjoy feeling in control of our own schedule and grow frustrated when things don’t go according to plan. Yet, if we truly desire to walk in the center of God’s perfect will, we must become willing to cooperate with His time frame.

Consider how you pray about situations in your life. Without realizing it, you may be demanding that God follow the schedule you’ve constructed, according to your very limited human wisdom. Yet, if we believe He is who He says He is, how can surrendering to His way not be to our benefit? Think about His unique, praiseworthy qualities:

• His all-encompassing knowledge.Unlike us, the Lord has complete awareness about our world and the details of every individual life–past, present, and future.
• His complete wisdom. God understands man’s every motive, whereas none of us are able to accurately discern people’s intentions. We make choices based on partial information, however, He has the wisdom to take action based on truth.
• His unconditional love.Our Creator is always motivated by love and constantly has our best in mind. Unless we trust His heart, our view of reality will be distorted.
• His perfect sufficiency. At just the right time, God will provide us with everything we need to carry out His plan.

Submitting to God’s timetable requires faith and courage. Believe in the goodness of His heart and His plans–and determine to wait until He gives the signal to move forward. Then, as you follow His schedule, you’ll experience the joy of watching Him make all things beautiful in His timing.

My prayer:     

Father, in this time of our lives being turned upside down by this virus, we can see how our making plans can be changed, but Yours are the true plans for our lives. You are in control, even when it seems like everything is out of control.

I pray, Father, we start to listen for Your voice, Your guidance, and follow the plan You have laid out for each of our lives. While we stay at home, even after we get back to work, I pray for a revival to take place in our nation … For the saved, as well as the unsaved, to truly follow You with heart and soul … not just lip service.

O’ Lord touch hearts today and cleanse our nation.

Bless each and everyone with your healing, saving grace …

AMEN

Until we meet again … KEEP LOOKING UP!

In His service
