Trust in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6

We have all been faced with making a life-changing decision. It can feel quite overwhelming, not knowing who we can turn to, who can we trust to help us make the right choice. It's comforting to know others who have walked through the same situation you're facing, but is their advise right for you?


Only God knows what's best for you. He's a much better judge of what you need, even more than you know yourself.

God has given each of us wisdom and understanding. He placed in us the ability to reason and think things through. However, we should never trust exclusively in our own understanding of the situation, thinking we are wise enough to handle things on our own. 

We must learn to trust our Heavenly Father completely in every choice we make. Be willing to listen and be corrected by God and His Word.

Bring all your decisions to Daddy God in prayer. Use His Word as a guide, then follow His leading. He loves you and will direct your paths if you lean on Him and trust Him with whatever comes your way.

"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever!"
Ephesians 3:20-21

The other day I woke up with a song going through my mind.

He is able, more than able, to accomplish what concerns me today.
He is able, more than able, to handle anything that comes my way.
He is able, more than able, to do much more than I could ever dream.
He is able, more than able, to make me what He wants me to be.

We serve a big, loving Daddy God who is more than able to do abundantly above anything we could ask or even think. He is bigger than any mountain, stronger than any foe, and more powerful than any situation we may find ourselves in today.

Ephesians 3:20 tells us this same power is at work in us. The word "power" is where we get the word "dynamite." Have you ever seen a bomb explode? It changes everything in it's wake. This same explosive, life-changing power brings results in our lives. It's the God imparted authority and ability to overcome any obstacle we may encounter.

This power working in and through us the Holy Spirit of God that is imparted in us when we are born into His family. Residing in you today is the same dynamite power that raised Jesus from the dead. WOW!


What is it you're facing today? What needs to be changed in your life or circumstances? No matter how insurmountable it seems, know Father God is more than able to do exceedingly abundantly more than you could every dream, and to change you into what He wants you to be. 

Surrender completely to Him and allow His dynamite power do it's mighty work in your heart and life. HE IS ABLE!
