Ps. 16: 7-9 I will bless the LORD who guides me; even at night my heart instructs me. 8 I know the LORD is always with me. I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me. 9 No wonder my heart is glad, and I rejoice.* My body rests in safety.
You get up in the morning and you start making up your lists of things that you plan to do. It is our tendency to just go ahead and set up our day’s activities, but how many times do you ask God what He wants you to do? We can’t expect God to bless our plans if we have not even consulted him on what He wants done. God does not have to bless anything that He did not ask you to do. We should seek God first. The Bible tells us in Matt. 6:33 Seek the Kingdom of God* above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. To “Seek the Kingdom of God” means to put God first in your life. To serve and obey Him. To ask Him to help you set the right priorities. Planning is good in that it adds meaning to our lives, but we have to rememeber to ask the One who gave us this day to begin with.
You may ask, well how do I find out what God wants me to do? By spending time in His Word (the Bible). God’s Word is full of practical ways on how to live our lives. And what to fill our time with. By constantly thinking about Him and His ways, will help you live a life that will bring joy to you and honor to Him. He cares about every aspect of our lives. When reading God’s Word we will gain insights that will help us make right decisions and set right priorities in our lives. So if you want to have a really wonderful day and want God to Bless your day, ask Him what He wants. Spend time in His Word and spend time talking with Him, and listening to Him.
If you don’t know Him, you can right now. Confess that you are a sinner in need of a Savior. Ask Him to forgive you of your sins and to come into your heart and life. He will, 1 John 1:9 states that if we confess our sin to Him, he is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us of all unrighteousness. He’s waiting to hear from you. Do it now. Don’t wait another momemt. It’s the Best Decision you’ll ever make. God Bless!!!!!!!!!!!!!
