Think about what you really want from God?
How do your prayer requests compare to tough times other people may be going through.
Some people want a new car – some people just want to be able to walk.
If you get what you want, will it take you closer, or further away from the Lord?
Luke 17:1-10
If the Lord requires something of you He gives you what you need.
A mistake isn’t something you do on purpose. Be what God want’s you to be – on purpose.
Don’t
James 4:13-17
Watch your plans. Filter everything through Christ and His will for your life.
There are good things you know to do in Christ – do them.
(back to Luke 17)
Remember that God doesn’t owe us anything – we owe Him everything.
Some requests can be almost insulting to the Lord – be commited – want more of God.
