From the CANON on this blog:
Solutions
1. God
is omnipotent and therefore can solve any problem. He may choose to use the solutions listed
below, but he often provides in ways you could have never imagined. The poor should cry out to God for help,
rather than depending on Baal.
From today’s scripture reading:
Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not
depend on your own understanding. Seek
his will in all you do, and he will direct your paths.
Proverbs
3:5-6 (NLT)
From today’s devotional:
Living a
life that’s committed to Christ calls for following His wisdom. Let's look at
attitudes necessary for consistent Christ-centered lifestyle:
Determination. Walking in wisdom is not something that happens
automatically. We must decide ahead of time to pursue godly living
wholeheartedly.
Focus. To stay on the path of the Lord's will, we must fix our
attention on His Word. As we meditate on Scripture and absorb its truths, our
minds will align with Christ's, and our choices will be in tune with biblical
principles.
Spirit
Sensitivity. With determination to live a holy
life and with close attention to Scripture, we become more sensitive to the
promptings of the Spirit, our guide who indicates the direction we are to take.
Trust. Sometimes the Lord's choice for us doesn't appear sensible.
It may seem foolish or require sacrifice. Trusting in His perfect wisdom is
necessary if we’re to walk according to His plan.
Courage. Some things God requires of us may cause us to react with
fear. As our trust in Him deepens, courage grows, and we discover the joy of
embracing His choice for us.
Perseverance. It is one thing to start out on the right path; maintaining
the course for a lifetime is something else. By depending on God, we can
persist and choose wisely over a long period.
Walking in
wisdom requires that we continually practice a few basics: Know God, trust Him,
listen, and obey. Is this your pattern for living? Remember, a lifetime of
godliness develops one choice at a time.
