John 2:24-25-“Jesus did not commit Himself unto them…for He knew what was in man.”

Please remember to read “My Utmost for His Highest” for  Today

 

TRUST NO MAN

 

If God is first in my focus any discouragement from others I see

Will be recognized as human frailties, not influencing or disappointing me.

 

If God’s needs are first and foremost. I’ll tarry in His Presence alone.

Satisfying the needs of our Father, until a worshipper is on his way home.

 

When God begins to orchestrate His agenda, He’ll recreate holiness within.

Forgiveness keeps God in focus as His strength and my renewal begins.

 

Lord, help me become available for Your service as I tarry alone with You.

Unless I trust in Your Spirit, I’m like a yo-yo with nothing to do.

 

In my freedom I’ll trust only Jesus, keeping my eyes staid on You.

Knowing Your Plans all have Purpose and my trusting is long overdue.

 

So I will keep trusting Jesus. I’ll meet alone with Him everyday.

Jesus and I have a bargain. He promised to guide me each step of His Way.

JOURNAL JOTTINGS and POINTS TO PONDER—How might a well- meaning leader interrupt or influence the plan of God for someone’s life? Recognizing natural abilities could stifle God’s plan to stretch someone in an unknown yet Godly direction. List your natural abilities. How many of them are you using for Him? What new ones has He given you recently? He equips as we obey.

 

Dear Lord, As this month draws to a close, thank you that my love for You is deeper than it was a month ago. Thank you for Your amazing Grace that I enjoy everyday. Help me to unselfishly share the Good News of Your Gospel everywhere I go.  Help me to always commit myself to seeking You and Your plans for my life. For Jesus’ Sake, I pray, Amen.
