praying His will

Some Christians read this passage and take its meaning out of context! Wouldn’t it be wonderful if this gave you license to have anything and everything you want? But the name of Jesus is not simply a “magic word” to tack on at the end of your wish list.

You must realize that all effective prayer involves praying the will of God, not the will of man. There are many things in the Word that clearly reveals God’s will, and these you may certainly ask for boldly without any hesitation or concern about whether you should have them. Yet there are many other things you need to pray about without knowing the exact will of God in the situation. It is at these times you should pray that His perfect will be done and not your own.

Let His will be done!!

You can be free!

Everyone passes through different levels of God’s glory and obviously we aren’t all at the same level at the same time. Therefore you hinder the maturing process when you compare yourself with someone else and then feel as if you don’t measure up. And this is just what the devil wants.

I call this the performance-acceptance syndrome, and if you want to be free you must overcome it. You can do this by seeing yourself through God’s eyes. He sees you as valuable, unique, and precious, and He loves you just as you are-imperfections and all.

If you are worn out from trying to be perfect, start enjoying being yourself and trust God to change you. He knows what He’s doing and He will get the job done if you will keep on believing.
God cares…..
