TOPIC – Resolve to Be More Trusting and Less Controlling by Joyce Meyer
A great deal of our pain and misery is caused by trying to control people and situations that we cannot control. It is usually difficult for most people to admit they are controlling if they are. But we can learn to be out of control and love it! We can love the freedom it brings to us! Sometimes we think we are helping God when we are actually hindering His work. But God will lead us to a better result if we will simply give Him control. Practice casting your cares, worry and anxiety on God…and allow Him to take care of you. https://247devotionals.com/
RESOLVE TO BE MORE TRUSTING AND LESS CONTROLLING
This Week’s Scripture: Joyce Meyer
Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time He may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you. 1 Peter 5:6-7
What Is My Worry Saying?
Worry doesn’t tell God that we trust Him. Faith prays and then stands firm, waiting on God to finish His work.
Tip from Joyce Meyer
“Many people have difficulty trusting God because of past hurts. But God is not like the people who have hurt us. We can trust Him!” – Joyce Meyer RESOLVE TO BE MORE TRUSTING AND LESS CONTROLLING
Study Suggestion: Joyce Meyer
What people or kinds of situations do you typically try to control? Make a list, and then pray over each item, submitting your cares and concerns to God. Think: Who in the Bible did things their own way? Who trusted God and submitted to His instructions? Closely examine their stories and the outcome of their lives.
