TIMES OF REFRESHING DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org
DATE: THURSDAY, 23 MAY 2024
In our journey through life, the desire to “get it right” can be overwhelming. We strive for success in our careers, relationships, and personal growth, hoping to align our choices with a path that leads to fulfillment and purpose. Yet, the quest for perfection can often leave us feeling anxious and inadequate, especially when we face uncertainties and setbacks. However, the wisdom of Proverbs 3:5-6 offers profound guidance in navigating this quest. And it says,
SCRIPTURE: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” — Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: TheScripture verses aboveremind us that the key to getting it right in life is not found in our own understanding or abilities, but in our trust and submission to the Lord. When we rely on God, acknowledging His sovereignty and seeking His will, He promises to direct our paths. Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: The key to getting it right in life is not found in our own understanding or abilities, but in our trust and submission to the Lord.
RESPONSIBILITY: So, beloved, surrender your ambitions and desires to God. Allow Him to direct your steps, trusting that His ways are higher and better than your own.
PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the promise that You will direct our paths when we trust in You. Help us to surrender our need for control and lean not on our own understanding. Guide us in every decision and step we take, that we may walk in Your purpose and fulfill the plans You have for us. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
PROPHETIC WORD: As we surrender our need for control and lean not on our own understanding, may our lives be a testament to God’s faithfulness and love. In the name of Jesus, Amen!
