Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I am Sherri Mackey, and it's time for us to
- 0:03Speaker 1: go to God in prayer. And as always, I invite
- 0:05Speaker 1: you to join along with me in prayer. You know,
- 0:08Speaker 1: sometimes we just want peace and we want direction, especially
- 0:10Speaker 1: when we're faced with difficult times. circumstances. So Father God,
- 0:15Speaker 1: in the name of Jesus, we come before you today
- 0:18Speaker 1: with hearts that need you. Some of us are standing
- 0:21Speaker 1: at a crossroads, facing decisions that could change the direction
- 0:25Speaker 1: of our lives. We don't know which way to turn.
- 0:27Speaker 1: We don't know what to choose. And sometimes, Lord, we're
- 0:30Speaker 1: afraid that one wrong decision could cost us something we
- 0:34Speaker 1: can't get back. But today, Father, we surrender our decisions
- 0:38Speaker 1: to you. Your word says in Proverbs 3, 5, and 6,
- 0:42Speaker 1: trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean
- 0:45Speaker 1: not into your own understanding. But in all our ways,
- 0:47Speaker 1: we've got to acknowledge you and you promised to direct
- 0:50Speaker 1: our path. So, Lord, we choose to trust you even
- 0:53Speaker 1: when we don't understand. Quiet every voice that's not yours.
- 0:56Speaker 1: Silence the noise of fear and pressure and anxiety and
- 1:00Speaker 1: opinions and expectations. God, help us not to make permanent
- 1:04Speaker 1: decisions based on temporary emotions. Don't allow desperation to make
- 1:09Speaker 1: our choices for us. Don't allow fear to convince us
- 1:12Speaker 1: to settle for something you never ordained. Father, give us
- 1:16Speaker 1: wisdom when the answer isn't obvious. Give us discernment when
- 1:19Speaker 1: everything looks good on the surface. Give us courage to
- 1:23Speaker 1: walk away from when something is not right. Give us
- 1:25Speaker 1: patience when you tell us to wait. And Lord, if
- 1:28Speaker 1: the door is not for us, give us the strength
- 1:31Speaker 1: to stop knocking. If the opportunity is from you, give
- 1:35Speaker 1: us peace to walk through it. If the relationship is
- 1:38Speaker 1: not healthy, give us courage to release it. If the
- 1:40Speaker 1: move is necessary, give us faith to go. If we
- 1:45Speaker 1: need to stay, give us grace to remain. If we
- 1:48Speaker 1: need to start over, remind us that starting over with
- 1:52Speaker 1: you is not failure. It is obedience. God, we ask
- 1:56Speaker 1: you to order our steps. Close every door that would
- 1:59Speaker 1: lead us away from your purpose. Open every door that
- 2:02Speaker 1: aligns with your will. And when you close the door,
- 2:05Speaker 1: help us not to keep trying to reopen it simply
- 2:07Speaker 1: because we don't understand why it closed. Give us supernatural peace,
- 2:11Speaker 1: peace that you promised would go beyond our human understanding.
- 2:15Speaker 1: So let peace guard our hearts and our minds. When
- 2:18Speaker 1: our minds say, what if? Let our faith say, God's
- 2:21Speaker 1: already there. When we don't know what tomorrow holds, remind
- 2:24Speaker 1: us that you hold tomorrow, Godfather. We don't need to
- 2:29Speaker 1: know every step. We just need enough light for the
- 2:31Speaker 1: step we're on. So today we surrender the decision. We
- 2:35Speaker 1: surrender the outcome. We surrender the timeline. We surrender our plans, Lord.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Your will, not ours. Your way, not ours. Your timing,
- 2:45Speaker 1: not ours. And when the answer comes, give us the
- 2:48Speaker 1: courage to obey. God, we declare that we will not
- 2:52Speaker 1: be driven by fear. We will be led by faith.
- 2:54Speaker 1: We will not be confused. We will seek your wisdom.
- 2:57Speaker 1: We will not rush. We will wait on you because
- 3:00Speaker 1: we know that when you order our steps, even the
- 3:02Speaker 1: difficult road can lead us exactly where you intended us
- 3:07Speaker 1: to be in the mighty, wonderful name of Jesus. Amen, amen,
- 3:11Speaker 1: and amen.
