Bible Verse of The Day – 9-7-19

Romans 14:8 (NKJV) 8 For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s.

It’s hard to get to a point in our walk where we feel content enough to say we are completely the Lord’s. We may be able to say we are working to get there, but to be completely there is another story.

We may pray, “God, use me”. And then He may want to do something with us or through us, and if we are not comfortable in doing it, we may shy away from it.

It’s not easy doing some of the things that may be asked of us to do. And some of the things may not be comfortable or anything like what we are used to doing.

As a matter of fact, most times it is something we have probably never attempted to do before.

Isn’t it funny that God would ask us to do something we are not familiar with. But He knows that if we don’t know how, we won’t lean on our own understanding, which causes us to reach out and lean on Him.

Some people have stepped out, leaning on God, but as time passed they got comfortable in what they were doing. And now they lean on what they have learned.

We have to always be listening and ready for God. We never know when He may want to add a little flavor to our life, so to speak.

Learn to live for Him so when He says, “change it up”, or “time to move on”, we are ready. Then we won’t ponder on it for too long and talk ourselves out of it.

Genesis 12:1 (NKJV) 1 Now the Lord had said to Abram: “Get out of your country, From your family And from your father’s house, To a land that I will show you.
