Often times we pray for things, we’re not willing to work for. Don’t get me wrong, God is able to do above and exceedingly what we ask of Him, but we must prove to Him that we are serious by doing our best. When God sees us doing our best, He’ll step in and do the rest.
Whether it’s starting a new career or job, strengthening your relationship with God, or maybe even finding the love of your life.
Thinking of starting a new job/ career? Don’t just post your resume on one job board and wait for a response. Post it on as many as you can, tell a friend to tell a friend that you’re looking for a job, start mingling with people who have the same career goals that you have. When you do your part, God will do His Part! He’ll place your resume in the hands of the right person.
Proverbs 18:22 says “He who finds a wife finds a good thing”, but how will he find you, if you’re nowhere to be found?
Instead of developing the mentality that God will just magically send someone to your doorstep, Make it a point to attend more social events, be open to meeting friends of mutual friends, maybe even consider joining a Christian dating website. As you continue to show God that you are serious, He’ll place you in the right place, at the right time, for the right person.
Most importantly, if you’re yearning for a relationship with God, set aside times to read your Bible, Daily Devotional, and really get to know Him. Like any other relationship, the way to get to know God is by spending time with Him.
I urge you to stop and ask yourself “What kind of message am I sending to God”? Am I doing my part?
Lord, I thank you for the trials you have given me. Your word says that “blessed is the man who perseveres under trial”. I declare that I have the Victory! In Jesus name, Amen!
I really like this post. I’m Sure that u want a relationship with God and peace and serenity in my life. I don’t know what I want besides that. Friends and a relationship would be nice but I’m in no condition to socialize. I went to a meeting today with about 10 other professional people / practitioner. As I glanced around at the group I noticed that everybody takes time with themselves … Nice clothing nice hair and makeup nails shoes jewelry watches …. Adorned I looked at myself I wore all black plain shirt plain pantsno jewelry no earrings. Only lip gloss and my hair simply braided… I had the presence of mind to ask myself today BEFORE I read this post..” Denise , what are u saying to the world?”
These people must not think very highly of ur presentation … The fact that I thought about this means it bothered me…. The shapeless formless unsexy unattractive in stylish clothing shouts ” I hate myself” that must be what God sees…. I don’t even try…. Sigh….. At least I’m one step closer . I KNOW stuff I just don’t DO stuff … Even if I was OUT there in the social scene… Who would notice me as I blend right in the wall ….????
I have such a biased view on meeting someone online. I know people who have done it but for whatever reason it just doesn’t sit well with me.
so true god knows what’s deserving to us
I so needed to hear this! I recently posted for another position at my current job, but thought about how seriously am I taking my current position? Am I ready to move up in the company?
