I am glad you asked.
We are told in Proverbs 3: 6 to acknowledge God.
Proverbs 3:6 AMP – “ In all your ways know and acknowledge and recognize Him, And He will make your paths straight and smooth [removing obstacles that block your way].”
If we acknowledge and recognize Him in ALL our ways, He will not only make our path straight, He will also remove obstacles that block our way.
How exactly do we acknowledge God in ALL our way?
- Acknowledge His existence.
This is the most simple way we can acknowledge God. Hebrews 11:6 says, “And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe the HE EXISTS exists and that He rewards those who diligently seek Him.
- Acknowledge His glory by your life.
Part of acknowledging God in all your ways is conforming your ways so that they bring glory to God. 1 Corinthians 10:31 states,
So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
Bringing glory to God means making Him greater than everything else in our lives.
- Acknowledge your death and Christ’s life in you – in short, your new identity.
This is probably the best part of acknowledging God in all your ways. Galatians 2:20 says,
I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
This is a total identity change when we become believers. The old self is dead, and the old ways are to be put to death. “I” no longer live. It’s Christ who is living in me.
LET US PRAY
Father, thank You for removing obstacles from our path when we acknowledge You. Lord, I pray that Your Holy Spirit will empower and teach us to acknowledge You is ALL our ways. Help us to live our lives in obedience to Your will. In Jesus’ mighty name, I pray. Amen 🙏🏾.
Have a blessed weekend ❤️
