Whatever occupies your thoughts is your god. Whatever occupies your bank account is your god. Whatever occupies your dreams is your god. There is only one true God. He is the Alpha, the Omega, the Beginning, and the End. He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. God is Love.

REPOST: Roll Them Over
August 7th - Hearing from God Each Morning by Joyce Meyer
Roll your works upon the Lord [commit and trust them
wholly to Him; He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will,
and] so shall your plans be established and succeed. (PROVERBS 16:3)
If we want to be in intimate relationship with God and live
lives that are truly committed to Him, we have to take everything about
ourselves and say to Him: “God, I give this to You. I give You this
problem. I give You this situation. I give You this
relationship. I completely release it and let it go. It is too much
for me. I am going to stop worrying and trying to figure everything
out—and I am going to let You take care of it. God, I also give
myself to you because I can’t do anything about myself either. I give it all
to You. I give You my strengths and weaknesses. I want to
change, but You have to change me.” It was a great day for me when I
finally learned that it was God’s job to change me and my job to believe!
Psalm 37:5 says, “Commit your way to the LORD, trust also in
Him, and He shall bring it to pass” (NKJV). What does it mean to commit
our ways to God? It means to “roll” them off of ourselves and onto
Him. When we roll our problems and human reasoning onto God, which means
to trust them completely to Him, then He changes our thoughts and makes
them agree with His will. In other words, His thoughts become our thoughts so that
we want what He wants. When that happens, our plans will succeed because
they are in complete agreement with God’s plans. Release yourself and all
your cares today and relax so you can hear God speak to you.
GOD’S WORD FOR YOU TODAY: Roll all your problems onto
God.
