Why Won’t It Work For Me?

Proverbs 16:3 (KJV)
Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established.

There are many of us out there that have experienced more failure in life than success. It may be in your relationships, your finances, your educational experience, or your professional life. It seems like every time you try and get ahead you always end up at a road block or taking two steps back.

The reason why we sometimes experience so much stress and confusion in our activities in life is simply because we haven’t consulted with our Father concerning our affairs. We have gotten so intellectual and high-minded that we think we can do it on our own. We as human-beings were never created to do anything on our own; we were created to depend on God for all of our needs. (Philippians 4:19)

No, this doesn’t mean not to use your mind which God has given you to use in all your affairs, but sometimes we make it tough on ourselves going after something that we never asked our Father about. You were created to prosper, and if you commit all your ways and thoughts to God you will have no choice but to prosper, and you should experience nothing but peace in everything you do.

II Chronicles 26:5 (KJV)
…and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him to prosper.

Joshua 1:8 (NIV)
Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.

Genesis 39:3 (KJV)
And his master saw that the Lord was with him, and that the Lord made all that he did to prosper in his hand.

I didn’t start to have success at anything until I applied those principals. So if you’re in a situation now that is not looking in your favor, ask God what He wants you to do. If you’re thinking about going back to school or opening up a business, ask God what He wants you to study or what kind of business he wants you to open. Don’t be afraid to ask because you think it will be something contrary to your plans, it may not be, and if it is I urge you to follow Gods plan because you don’t want to put yourself in a bad situation.

Everything you want in life, all the answers you seek lies within the Kingdom of God.

Matthew 6:33 (KJV)
But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

I pray this has been a blessing on your life.
