Alignment with God's Will



Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God. May Your gracious Spirit lead me on level ground. Psalm 143:10 HCSB

For the past few days we have been learning from the word of God on how we can overcome our financial challenges and the word of God Gave us knowledge of God's divine ability to provide for our needs. Also, we got instructions from the word of God on how to pray for our finances. Today we continue on the same topic and there is something profound God is speaking to us from Psalms 143:10

The Word of God today teaches us the importance of humility and a recognition of our need for divine instruction. This suggests that in pursuing financial success, we should approach it with a humble heart, acknowledging that our plans and efforts should align with God's purpose.

Financial success is not solely about our efforts or strategies but about aligning our desires and actions with God's will. By seeking His guidance, following His principles, and relying on His Spirit, we can navigate the complexities of financial stewardship and find success that is not only material but also spiritual and meaningful.

The acknowledgment that God is the ultimate authority and guide implies that our financial decisions should be made in accordance with His principles and values. This might involve stewardship, generosity, integrity, and ethical conduct in our financial dealings.

The mention of the " May Your gracious Spirit lead me on level ground "  suggests that when we align our actions with God's will, He will guide us in paths that are morally upright and conducive to our overall well-being, including financial prosperity.

Throughout the Bible, there are numerous references emphasizing the importance of seeking God's guidance in all aspects of life, including finances. Proverbs 3:5-6 urges us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and not to lean on our own understanding, but to acknowledge Him in all our ways, and He will make our paths straight. The Word of God has always highlighted the significance of relying on God's wisdom and direction rather than relying solely on our own intellect or plans.

 Prayer:
  Prayer for Discernment and Clarity (Proverbs 19:21):
Heavenly Father, I come before You, acknowledging Your sovereignty and wisdom. Your Word reminds me that many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is Your purpose that prevails. Lord, I confess that at times I am overwhelmed by the multitude of plans and ideas swirling in my mind. Grant me clarity and discernment to distinguish Your will from the distractions of this world.

 Further Prayer Points:
 Guidance and Surrender (Psalm 25:4-5):
God, teach me Your ways and lead me in Your truth. I surrender my plans to Your guidance.
 Trust and Dependence (Proverbs 3:5-6):
Lord, I trust in You with all my heart. Direct my steps according to Your will.
 Focus and Priorities (Matthew 6:33):
Help me seek Your kingdom first above all else. Keep my focus on Your purposes.
 Confidence in God's Sovereignty (Isaiah 55:8-9):
God, Your ways are higher than mine. I trust in Your sovereign control over my life.
 Strength to Obey (Philippians 2:13):
Lord, empower me to walk in Your will. Work in me to fulfill Your purposes.

God Bless you🙏

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks.

DO NOT COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS

  "I know what it is to be poor or to have plenty, and I have lived under all kinds of conditions. I know what it means to be full or to be hungry, to have too much or too little. Philippians 4:12 CEV" God’s purpose for humankind is for everyone to succeed, but each person has their own season. Just as each flower blooms in its own time, each of us has a time set by God. When that season comes, God will make you prosper. Until then, keep praying and working hard, trusting in His timing. When you look at your peers, former classmates, family members, or others in your age group and see their success, it’s easy to start comparing. Maybe a friend just built a new house or got a high-paying job, or perhaps someone you know is getting married. If you feel like you’ve achieved more, you may feel good about yourself. But if you feel like you’re still “behind,” it’s easy to feel discouraged and inadequate. This is where your perspective can become distorted. Some people think they ar...
