The Father’s Comfort: Don’t Assume

Sep 11, 2018 | Posted by Margo Fieseler | Devotionals |

Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he’s the one who will keep you on track. Don’t assume that you know it all. Run to God! Run from evil!

Proverbs 3:5-7 MSG

Assumptions can get me in trouble. When I accept something as true or as certain to happen, without proof, there is still a probability that it isn’t true and won’t happen.

   Meanwhile, my mind is set. No one and nothing will deter my focus. And that’s when I get in a quandary.

   Solomon, the wisest man in the whole world, gives the best advice ever

in Proverbs 3:

1. Trust God.

When I have total confidence in God, in His ways and His timing, I won’t try to figure it out on my own.

2. Listen for God’s voice.

When I am attentive to His voice, everywhere I go and everything I do, my crooked path becomes straight.

3. Run to God.

And when I give up my pride, (assuming I know better than God does), I not only run to God, He runs to me!

That’s His conviction in my heart followed by godly activity.

And that’s a very good thing.

FROM THE COMMUNUTY

Yesterday my mom fell again walking outdoors at her apartment…She is okay & was released from hospital after a few hours. On the drive to West Bend after we got the call…I found complete peace just loving my God & knowing He was in control of the situation no matter what it was. And then reading your devotion today made my heart cry out with a love for Him that can’t be put into words.
Thank you & thank you & thank you for listening & obeying the Lord.
