Trust in the Lord and Accept His Correction

 Today, the Lord wants you to go out and work. There are times when you want to get things done but somewhere along the way, you have failed to do it. There may be a lot of excuses or reasons but what matters most is your integrity. Do what you say and always be true to your commitments. Let your yes mean yes and your no mean no.

God works through His Word and by His Word, all things came to be. Walk in the way of righteousness. Obedience is not by words but in deeds (Mt 21:28-32). It is easy to say yes in doing a particular task or work but to actually do it is an entirely different thing. Take action in every instruction. Only then will you fully experience the joy and gladness of God's hand working in you. 

Humility shall bring you to dwell in the Lord's holy mountain (Zep 3:11-12). God will bring you to a far away land where you shall live a life of humility, security, peace, and prosperity. A high place where you shall permanently dwell and work without any disturbance (Zep 3:13). Continue to be humble and lowly. Take refuge in the name of the Lord. 

The city in which you live today has become a problematic place which is no longer conducive to a clean, peaceful and healthy living conditions.  People are more concerned about themselves rather than trusting the Lord (Zep 3:1). God will remove you from this place and bring you far away from the proud braggarts. There, you shall live a life of humility, security, peace, and prosperity. It is a high place where you shall permanently dwell and work without any disturbance (Zep 3:13).

Glory in the Lord delivers you out from many troubles (Ps 34:20). Troubles that have forced you to move out from your comfort zone, and have caused you to experience distress. In these troubled times, seek for the Lord's glory. He shall answer you and deliver you from all your fears (Ps 34:5).

Glorious living is not just all about prosperity in material wealth and riches. What good are all of these things if you are not well enough to enjoy them? First and foremost to the Lord is your health and well being (Ps 34:21).

Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart find favor before you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. - Psalm 19:15

Prayer

What lies within this fragile heart that beats and bleeds and breaks apart. What secrets does it hold inside that I have tried so hard to hide. What dreams and hopes and fears and doubts that fill my mind and make me shout. What passions and desires and joys and pains that stir my soul and course my veins. What words and thoughts and feelings and deeds that shape my life and guide my needs. What truths and lies and rights and wrongs that form my voice and sing my songs. What is this heart that you can see that only you can set me free. What is this heart that I conceal that only you can make me reveal.
