Life Lesson: Nothings changes unless you take responsibility for it. Remember your "comfort zone" can become an unproductive "dead zone".
God knows exactly where you need to change. Take responsibility and ask Him.
Studying God's word always sheds light on our path and progress. The Holy Spirit has a way of pin pointing the need for large and small adjustments in our attitude and life choices. He is available 24 hours a day, no appointment necessary.
If you are struggling in any area today, know that God has promised to refresh you as you seek Him. To enlighten your understanding and to shed His light in the dark places as you seek Him.
James 1:5 states..
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not, and it shall be given him.
Psalm 23:3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
In regard to wisdom..
Proverbs 8:17 I love them that love me: and those that seek me early shall find me.
Proverbs 8:20-21 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgement. That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.
Treasures is described in Strong's as "magazine of weapons" Think of Ephesians 6- the whole armour of God.
Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Change happens first in our thinking and then in our actions. So consider...
2 Corinthians 10:3-6 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
Change can occur if we are willing to seek God and to take responsibility for our inaction and actions.
