NEED TO CONTROL EVERYTHING

“For the law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and death.” Romans 8:2
Let go of everything that is beyond your ability to control.
There will be  things that will not work out the way you desired or intended, but the Lord’s ways are  higher than your ways.

The Lord knows the beginning from the end, and He is giving  you opportunities to align yourself with His purposes for your life.

Move  with the flow of His Spirit to come into divine order so that His purposes will be  established in, around, and through you.  Do not be afraid.

Isaiah 55:9  For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My  ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.
Refuse to be drawn away from that which is vitally important to your spiritual well-being.  Even as many things demand your attention and resources, you must continually guard your heart.
Maintain integrity and be true to yourself.

Psalms 26:11  But as for me, I will walk in my integrity; redeem me and be merciful to me.

*God’s Giving is an overflow of His character(Matthew 5:3-12 Beatitudes) and an example of how He calls us to share what we have with others.(Testimonies of what Jesus has done for us—The Cross, the Gospel)

*God gives lovingly. (Exodus 34:6)

*God gives freely. (James 1:17)

*God gives abundantly. (Psalm 132:15)

*God gives wisely. (Romans 16:27)

I sincerely ask the Holy Spirit to show me what I need to do and empower me to follow through in obedience.

Result: I am released from my need to control everything.

I am “Free.”

*The reason for this is that I now trust God, Who knows all, and He has promised those who are meek, that they will inherit the earth.  Faith is God has freed one from the burden of trying to push, manipulate or force, in order to get one’s way.
Jeremiah 9:23,24. “This is what the Lord says: “Don’t let the wise boast in their wisdom, or the powerful boast in their power, or the rich boast in their riches. But those who wish to boast should boast in this alone: that they truly know me and understand that I am the Lord who demonstrates unfailing love and who brings justice and righteousness to the earth, and that I delight in these things. I, the Lord, have spoken!”

 

 

 

Lord, help me daily to release my need to control everything. Help me come to you for direction in all my ways and thoughts—for Your Glory.   Amen
