Let your heart keep His commands...!

Proverbs 3:1-2, 5-6, 11-12, 26 NKJV

My son, do not forget my law, But let your heart keep my commands; For length of days and long life And peace they will add to you. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord , Nor detest His correction; For whom the Lord loves He corrects, Just as a father the son in  whom he delights. For the Lord will be your confidence, And will keep your foot from being caught.

Shalom! Day #263. Do you know that length of days and peace is added to your life when you trust and obey the Lord and His commandments? Let's pray. Father, we pray that You would create a heart of obedience,  a heart of longing to be disciplined and be discipled. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

The first this is, Let the commandments of God be in your heart and live by it for you will see long life and peace. But if you depart from it, then it's the reverse of what you will see.

Secondly, lean not on your own understanding but in all your ways, trust in the Lord, and acknowledge Him in every step you take in your life. God directs your path to success and victory. If we try to do it on our own, surely and most assuredly I say to you that we will see failure and disappointment. Yes, I know that you can do everything, maybe you are "superman" but hey even superman needed Jor El's advice and guidance, this is just a TV series, but I'm talking about our real life. God is interested in your life, now tell me what you going to do about it?

Thirdly,  do not despise the discipline of God. If God is doing something in your life now, if you are feeling like you are being broken in every area of your life, and you are trying your best to get out of it, hey listen, better don't. Allow God to work in your life, allow Him prune everything that would hinder you from growing spiritually and to be the man and woman God intended you to be. The disciplines of God is made perfect in love, because He loves you that's the reason He disciplines you. You should know this truth THAT THE LORD TAKES DELIGHT IN YOU when you submit yourself to Him to be trained, discipled and chastened.

Finally,  the Lord is your confidence. If you are lack of confidence, come to God for He is your source of confidence. He gives you the courage you need, all you have to do is be desperate for Him, hunger for more of the Holy Spirit,  let your soul long for more of Him. Amen!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
