Wherefore be ye not unwise,
but understanding what the

When God’s plans for you,
He begins to unfold
you’ll see there’s nothing
from you He’ll withhold.
For all of His planning,
will reveal to you
the exact endeavors
He wants you to pursue.
When God’s purposes for you,
He begins to unveil
you’ll find your life to Him
you will want to avail.
For all of His purposes,
will divulge to you His will
and His designs for you
you will want to fulfill.
When God’s begins to disclose,
for you His purposes and plans
you’ll find yourself becoming . . .
just like putty in His hands!
~~~~~~~~
But now, O Lord,
thou art our father;
we are the clay,
and thou our potter;
and we all are the
work of thy hand.

When your life,
is out of whack
it’s time to take
a step back.
You need to look,
at all that you do
asking Jesus . . .
is this done for You?
When your life,
is lopsided
it’s time to stop
being blindsided.
You need to see,
satan for what he is
and not let him
make you one of his.
When your life,
is out of control
it’s time to look
deep into your soul!
~~~~~~~~
For what is a man profited,
if he shall gain the whole world,
and lose his own soul?
or what shall a man give in
exchange for his soul?

Blessed is she who believes,
who mediates and prays
for she is able to hear
the things God has to say.
Blessed is she who has faith,
who is Holy Spirit filled
for she can understand
what is God’s perfect will.
Blessed is she who trusts,
God in and for all things
for she knows His favor
into her life He will bring.
Blessed is she who hopes,
whose thoughts are higher
for her joy is in knowing
the future will be brighter.
Blessed is she who believes,
whose hope and trust glows
for her heart leaps and bounds
because her Savior she knows!

“And blessed is she that believed:
for there shall be a performance
of those things which were told
her from the Lord.”

Often we say yes,
when we should say no
because it’s easier
just to say and do so.
But, sometimes God,
wants us to say no
so that a bigger yes
He can reveal and show.
Often we say no,
when we should say yes
because we don’t want
to jump into the mess.
But, sometimes God,
wants us to say yes
so that others for Him
we can truly bless.
Sometimes we say yes,
other times it’s a no . . .
but, if we seek God’s will
it’ll never be a maybe so!

Not with eyeservice,
as menpleasers; but as
the servants of Christ,

The thief comes not to give,
rather to steal and take
so that you will not care
about your eternal fate.
He comes not to save,
but, to destroy and kill
so that you will not care
about knowing God’s will.
The thief comes not to bring,
endless peace and harmony
rather to take you with him
into hell’s perpetual agony.
He comes not to bring,
life abundantly
but rather to eat away
at your faith constantly.
The thief your salvation,
doesn’t give a squat
so I pray this will be . . .
some food for thought!
~~~~
“I am the door: by me if any man
enter in, he shall be saved, and
shall go in and out, and find pasture.
The thief cometh not, but for to steal,
and to kill, and to destroy: I am come
that they might have life, and that they
might have it more abundantly.”
“Be sober, be vigilant;
because your adversary the devil,
as a roaring lion, walketh about,
seeking whom he may devour:”

Often at a crossroad,
we decide the way
we think we should go
before we even pray.
We trust our intuition,
so we make the choice
without listening to . . .
the Holy Spirit’s voice.
We start off down the path,
we thought was best for us
forgetting it’s God’s will
and not ours we should trust.
We grow more unsure,
with each step we take
until we start wishing
the choice we didn’t make.
So next time at a crossroad,
before you make a decision
pray first asking God to give . . .
you guidance and wisdom!

“If any of you lack wisdom,
let him ask of God,
that giveth to all
men liberally, and
upbraideth not;
and it shall be given him.”

Today I prayed,
asking God what to do
and He responded . . .
My will you need to pursue.
I asked Him how,
His will I may know
and He answered
My Word the way will show.
So I bowed my head,
and opened up my mind
to the truth I knew
I was about to find.
And there it was in print,
what He wanted of me
as my eyes opened up
His answer I could see.
Today I prayed,
and God did not disappoint
for He showed me what to do
from His advantage point!

Walking upright,
takes a lot of skill
but it’s easy . . .
if you know God’s will.
For in your heart,
God will speak
and the truth
you’ll want to seek.
Walking upright,
is not too hard
if you let God be
your shield and guard.
For He will show you,
His righteous way
and all things good
He’ll bring to your day.
Walking upright,
can surely be done . .
if you follow the steps
of God’s beloved Son!

“Lord, who shall abide
in thy tabernacle? who shall
dwell in thy holy hill?
He that walketh uprightly,
and worketh righteousness,
and speaketh the truth

and shield: the Lord will
give grace and glory:
no good thing will he
withhold from them that
walk uprightly.”

Educate me Lord,

help me to do
all You require.
Lead me along,
the path of goodness
help me to live
a life of pureness.
Teach me Lord,
the ways of Your will
with Your power
may my life You fill!

If on God we’re dependent,
we’ll want to know His will
before we go do this or that
we’ll gladly remain still.
We will pray for direction,
for guidance in all things
waiting until we receive
His reverent blessings.
If on God we’re to rely,
we’ll seek His holy counsel
whatever is not of His will
we will happily cancel.
We’ll need to understand,
His plans are not our own
once we see everything
is controlled from His throne.
If on God we’re dependent,
we’ll need to be submissive
to His will for our lives . . .
we must not be dismissive!

In the morning hours,
when all is quiet and still
seek God and you’ll find
what is for you His will.
Ask Him for the wisdom,
as you commence your day
and He will show you
the righteousness of His way.
In the early light,
when all is calm and silent
seek God with a heart
on Him trusting and reliant.
Ask Him to show you,
the plans He has for you
inquire of Him guidance
in all His has for you to do.
In the morning hours,
seek God while it’s still dawn
and throughout the day . . .
you’ll find yourself Spirit drawn!

A heart open,
to God’s searchings
is a heart ready
for His teachings.
It’s a heart willing,
for God to make known
His plans and purposes
the way to be shown.
A heart open,
is one that will pray
it doesn’t matter
if it’s night or day.
It’s a heart knowing,
God’s will is the best
if it wants to have
true peace and rest.
A heart open,
to God’s eternal good
is a heart working for Jesus
just as it should!

What is Your will Lord,
what would You have me do
how will I know the answer
is coming from You?
What will I need Lord,
what of me do You require
how will I know just what
is Your righteous desire?
What is Your will Lord,
what do You want of me
how will I know the path
when the way I can’t see?
What must I yet have,
what is it that I’m lacking
how will I know for sure
I have Your divine backing?
What is Your will Lord,
tis my hearts plea . . .
for I know you have
great plans for me!

Today’s Verse ~ Bible Gateway
I believe in God,
in all of His glorious creation
I believe He made the heavens
and the earth's foundation.
I believe that man,
came from but dust
I believe it's God's image
He puts into all of us.
I believe that Satan,
is the cause for our fallen state
I believe it's still his lies
he uses on us to trap and bait.
I believe that man's heart,
has always been cold and callous
I believe it's full of deceit
filled with ungodly malice.
I believe in Jesus,
God's only begotten Son
I believe He died and rose again
for the sins of everyone.
I believe in redemption,
from our wicked, evil ways
I believe it's the blood of the Lamb
that washes our sins away.
I believe in God's love,
I believe in His grace
I believe one day
God's judgement all will face.
I believe in Heaven,
I also believe in hell . . .
I believe for eternity it's where
the unsaved will dwell.
I believe in the hope,
Jesus imparts in me
I believe all can be saved
if these truth they'd just see!

I will not be shaken,
nothing can rattle me
not even my own death
will take me, Lord from Thee.
I will not tremble,
I have nothing to fear
even if I'm all alone
God is always near.
I will not waiver,
on my Rock, I will stand
if I was to stumble
in His grace I will land.
I will not be moved,
nothing can take away
the love I have for Jesus
from His ways I'll not stray.
I will not be shaken,
nothing will take from me
the peace, faith and hope
I have dear Lord, in Thee!
