God Will Lead You

The Holy Spirit does not automatically seal your mouth so you don’t overeat-or so you don’t yell at your children. But He will prompt you! God will gently lead you as you read, study, pray, and try to apply God’s Word to every area of life. For example, Proverbs 17:28 tells us that even fools are considered wise and perceptive when they hold their peace and shut their mouths.

You have to decide how you’re going to respond to the issues in your life. Often your best response comes only after you are silent, prayerful, and willing. God’s Spirit lives in you as a believer in Christ-and He’s ready and willing to assist you with your personal discipline, self control, and spiritual growth.

Lord, Your peace eases my soul and gives me perspective and patience. I will follow Your leading and lean into Your strength to become a wise believer and better parent—one filled with Your Spirit. Amen.

We’ve all struggled at one time or another with our ability to fully trust God. I never truly realized the extent to which I wrestled with Him over both the simplest of things, and the big things, until I had children. Yet, I would always hear Him whisper to my spirit, “I will protect them. Trust me.”

There are few things that can change a marriage the way prayer can. While I was an associate pastor, a couple came to my office for marriage counseling. After we pinpointed several areas of concern in their marriage that needed their attention, I asked the husband to commit the couple’s desires to the Lord. As the man finished praying, I looked up to discover that his wife was crying. She explained through her tears that this was the first time in ten years of marriage that they had prayed together as a couple!
