Message:
A wise woman once told me, “when it is sent by God, it comes with confirmation. But when it isn’t sent by God, it will come with hesitation, frustration, and confusion.” This profound insight resonates deeply within my spirit. Our journey in faith often presents us with choices, desires, and paths that we may feel compelled to pursue. However, recognizing the divine sourcing behind these motivations is essential. When God leads us, a sense of peace and confirmation floods our hearts, guiding us in clarity. In contrast, if confusion and doubt arise, it may be a gentle nudge from the Lord, urging us to pause and reflect.
Trusting in God’s timing and discernment can be challenging, especially amidst life’s noise. The temptation to rush forward, seeking immediate results, can overshadow our sensitivity to the Holy Spirit’s whispers. God desires for us to walk in assurance, not bewilderment. This assurance comes from deepening our relationship with Him and aligning our choices with His word. Remember that seeking confirmation from God is not merely about receiving signs, but it involves cultivating a trustful heart that waits patiently for His perfect alignment in our lives.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I come before you with a heart seeking clarity in a world often filled with noise and distraction. I thank You for the wisdom shared by those who have walked this path before me. Lord, I ask for your guidance as I navigate through the complexities of my choices. Help me to discern when something is truly from You. May I recognize the confirmation that comes from the peace of the Holy Spirit, enabling me to move forward in confidence according to Your will.
When I feel hesitation creeping into my heart, or if I encounter frustration and confusion, remind me to pause and reassess. I pray for the strength to resist the urge to rush into decisions without Your blessing. Teach me to be patient, to seek Your presence in every moment, and to listen attentively for Your voice. Fill me with the assurance that You are orchestrating my life in Your perfect way, and that true fulfillment comes from being in step with You.
Father, I acknowledge that life’s journey is not always clear-cut. Sometimes I may let my emotions cloud my judgment and lead me astray. Forgive me, Lord, for the times I have acted without Your confirmation. Help me to trust in Your timing, knowing that what is meant to be will unfold as You intend. Empower me through Your Word and the prompting of Your Spirit to seek only what aligns with Your desires for my life.
As I move forward, let every step be backed by Your divine confirmation, enveloped in peace and purpose. Strengthen my faith, so that my choices reflect an unwavering trust in Your plans. Thank you for being my anchor, my shepherd, and my source of wisdom. In Jesus’ name, I pray, amen.
Sasha
