Hello Everyone,
Ephesians 3:20-21 Says:

“Now Unto Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,” NIV

When we come to the Lord to seek His will for our life what do we ask?
Do we ask?
Lord what do you want me do?
When do you want me to do it?
How shall I do it?
Who do you want me to involve along the way?
And please tell me what the outcome will be.

Or do we ask: Lord, just tell me what to do one step at a time, and I will do it.

We are always asking God for a detailed “road map,” We say Lord, if you could just tell me where I am heading, and then I will be able to set my course and go.”

But He says, “You don’t need to set your course. What you need to do is follow Me one day at a time.”

Who is it that really knows the way for you to go to fulfill God’s will or purpose for your life? God is!!

Jesus said:
"I am the way and the truth and the life.” John 14:6NIV

· He did not say, “I will Show you the way.”
· He did not say, “I will give you a road map.”
· He did not say, “I will tell you which direction to head.”
· He said, “I am the way,” Jesus knows the way; He is your way.

If we were to do everything that Jesus tells us one day at a time, do you suppose that we would always be right in the center of where God wants us to be?

When we get to a place where we trust Jesus to guide us one step at a time I believe we will experience a new freedom.

If we can’t trust Him to guide us this way, what happens when we don’t know which way to go?

We worry every time we have to make a decision.
Are we freeze up and cannot make a decision.
I believe with all my heart this is not the way God intends for us to live our lives.

We just release the way to Him. Then take care of everything He tells us one day at a time.
There is always plenty to do that fills each day with meaning and purpose.

If we do everything He says, we will be in the CENTER of His WILL and ready to be used when He has a special assignment.

Oh How HE Loves Us!
Pastor Phil
