Today’s Devotional 📖

Good Morning,

As I shared yesterday, God actually wants to give you the desires of your heart. Why? Because He loves you and He is good! Too many times people get religiously twisted like a pretzel when it comes to talking to God about your desires. What are your desires? Your wants! The Heavenly Father is actually interested in giving you the desires of your heart.

As I shared in yesterday’s podcast, Mark 11:23-24 and 1st John 5:14-15 deal with praying for the things that we want. When we talk about praying concerning things that we want, people often ask, “What if I have the wrong desire?”

The key to that question is found in Psalm 37:3 and 4. The passage, as we covered over the last few weeks, tells us to Trust God and do good. Verse 4 tells us to delight ourselves in the Lord. What does that mean? It means to find our happiness in God, to enjoy serving God, and to find our delight in God. As we do this, trust God, and do good, the Holy Spirit is able to work on our hearts and deal with wrong desires.

As you grow in relationship with Him, there are times where He will pinpoint those desires and ask you to give them up. It may be a hard thing for you to give up. However, this is where the trust factor comes in. Whenever God asks you to give up something, it’s because He has something far better for you! You can believe that something better is coming your way!

There’s so much more I want to share with you in today’s podcast and in tomorrow’s podcast and newsletter! You can stream today’s podcast on YouTube, Apple Podcast or Spotify. I’m praying for you! Have a great day!
