Stop Asking!

on 18/April/2013

Beloved–

Stop asking and start praising and thanking.

When I met my husband, he had such a noble and moral character I didn’t realize he didn’t have a personal relation with Christ.  Lacking a deep enough faith to be obedient to 2 Corinthians 6:14, I told God not to worry, I’d get the job done; and married him!  Sin is often disguised as self confidence in one’s self.

For years I prayed for my husband’s salvation (it had become a bone of contention between us, I was pushing him away); then one day I decided (during prayer time; the Spirit leading??) that I would stop asking.  I would start praising and thanking God for the answer to my prayer.  I knew (John 3:16) that God wanted my husband to be saved.  I had also learned that God has his own timing and that I only had to be obedient (1 Samuel 15:22).  Obedience is very satisfying and it makes you wonder why you didn’t do it sooner.

I pray for you daily to be obedient sooner rather than later.

Luv Ya!
