Commanding Your Morning Devotion 18 January 2024
Verse: “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
Explanation: This verse encourages believers to rely on God completely, acknowledging His wisdom above our own. It advises against relying solely on our understanding, emphasizing the importance of submitting all aspects of our lives to God. By doing so, we can trust that He will guide us on the right path.
Example: Imagine facing a difficult decision at work. Instead of relying solely on your own knowledge and insight, trust in the Lord. Seek His guidance through prayer and submit the decision to Him. This may involve asking for wisdom, discernment, and clarity. By trusting in God, you can navigate challenges with confidence that He is directing your steps.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, I come before you with trust and surrender. Help me to rely on your wisdom rather than my own understanding. In every aspect of my life, I submit to your guidance, knowing that you will make my paths straight. Grant me discernment and clarity, especially in the face of difficult decisions. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
