Are you willing to let God be God? Are you willing to let Him take the leading role in your life? Are you willing to surrender and to submit? It all starts with willingness. When you are willing to do something, you accept doing it by choice and you are not reluctant. God wants us to be "willing and obedient" so that we can eat the good of the land.
Life will always present to us choices. We have to choose right from wrong. We have the blessed ability to make choices in life about what we want to do with our lives. Even when things don't go the way we plan or want them to go, we still have the ability to choose how we respond to those situations. We can choose to continue to trust and believe that God will honor His Word in our lives despite what we see. We get to choose to believe that He is working everything in our lives together for our good and His glory. We choose what we believe and we choose how we respond.
As you walk out each and every day in life, walk it out knowing that God is God all by Himself. Walk it out knowing that He will never leave you and He will never forsake you. Walk it out remembering what God has done and let that remembrance fuel your faith for what you need Him to do.
SCRIPTURE MEDITATION
Mark 11:22-26
King James Version
22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
