Sometimes, We Can't Handle the Truth
You can bend it and twist it... You can misuse and
abuse it... But even God cannot change the Truth. ~ Michael Levy
Scripture:Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Psalm 25.:5
Have you ever asked God a question, but didn’t like His
answer? Have you ever asked Him to give
you a spirit of discernment, but didn’t like what was revealed? Have you ever asked God to show you someone’s
heart and then regretted it?
We often ask God to do things on our behalf and then become
angry with the results. We become angry
because even though we want God to move in support of us, we want what we want
even if it’s not what God wants for us. We want Him to confirm our decisions,
even when we make the wrong ones. We
want our choices to be definitive, even as the world around us begins to crumble
because our decisions were not in God’s will.
In other words, God cannot lie to or for His children. So before you ask God the question, be
prepared for His answer.
Be Blessed
Prayer:
Father God, we come before the throne of grace with bowed
heads and humbled hearts. Lord, forgive
us for being stiff necked and reacting contrary to Your teachings. Forgive us Lord, for sometimes going against
Your will and Your word. Help us Father,
to be still and accept that there are things in our lives that shouldn’t be
there. There are people in our lives
that shouldn’t be there. There are
things that we do and say, that are not pleasing to You. Lord, help us to accept Your truths and dwell
in Your word. Help us Lord, to be still
and listen for Your still small voice and when we hear it, accept those things
You are revealing to us. Have mercy on
us Lord. Lord, we love You even in our chastisements. We magnify and uplift Your name because You
are Sovereign. We love You because You
love us more than words could ever express.
We submit our prayers in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ. Amen.
