HEAR HIM FOR YOURSELF

Its been a while since I blogged and I thought I should just share some of the thoughts that have been going through my mind lately.

We are all aware that God deals with us differently. So my thinking is we should never base our convictions or decisions on someone else's testimony. A sister or a brother gives a testimony of how God has blessed him or her and we think that God should bless us that same way and begin to want to take those steps they have taken. 

Sweetheart, what works for me will not work for you. Hear God for yourself. It is good to be encouraged by someone else's testimony but let our convictions be based on God.

Recently, I was going to take a step and almost everyone else I knew who had taken this step had not succeeded, but despite all the negatives I heard I still went ahead because I believed God for myself. And to God be the glory I succeeded.

So the next time you're going to take a step or the next time you're going to believe God for something please consult God for yourself. It is very important to seek Godly counsel and advice but as the bible says in Proverbs 20:5 'Counsel in the heart of a man is like deep waters but a man of understanding will draw it out'. Selah
