Wouldn\u2019t you just love to be assured God is opening this exact door, and you don\u2019t have to knock on a single other door? It would be nice \u2026 but I\u2019ve found God really doesn\u2019t work that way. He doesn\u2019t magically appear with a booming voice, revealing every detail. Instead, He called us into a relationship with Him and once we start to grow in that relationship we experience God\u2019s presence and His peace.<\/p>\n<p>Joyce Meyer writes \u201cOne of the most important lessons we can learn is to seek God&#8217;s face (who He is) and not just His hand (what He can do for us).\u201d When we understand that seeking God above all else is more important than we can live the life of abundance that God has in store for us.<\/p>\n<p>But Scripture teaches that we are supposed to seek God\u2019s face, his presence, every day, all day. Psalm 105:4 says, \u201cSeek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We are called into a new season of maturity. God\u2019s presence always precedes the move. God will make a way. God will turn things around. But, before He does we must seek His face. We must seek to do His will and move in His way, and not just seek what He can do for us.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer for today<\/strong>:\u00a0<em>Loving Father Dear God, I am sorry for not trusting You.
