What Do You Do When You Don’t Know What To Do? – By Iwalola(Lola) Ademodi

🌺Well, I am glad you asked.

🌺Beloved, I believe that our loving God knew ahead of time that we will be faced with life situations (especially in a sin-sick world) where we find ourselves overwhelmed with issues that need to be addressed, but we do not know what to do.

🌺The Bible offers great help for all of us no matter where we stand. When we don’t know exactly what to do or how to go about standing up for truth, here are a few places we can begin.

🌺We need God’s guidance to know His will in our situation.

✝️James 1:5 AMP tells us…

🟑 β€œIf any of you lacks wisdom [to guide him through a decision or circumstance], he is to ask of [our benevolent] God, who gives to everyone generously and without rebuke or blame, and it will be given to him.”

🎈 𝐖𝐄 πŒπ”π’π“ 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐒𝐓 π†πŽπƒ.

We must trust that God knows what He is doing. After all, only He has the power to lead, guide and direct us into solutions.

✝️Proverbs 3:5-6 AMP encourages us…

🟑 β€œTrust in and rely confidently on the Lord with all your heart And do not rely on your own insight or understanding. 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].”

🌺The Word of God tells us not to be anxious or worried, but pray.

✝️Philippians 4:6-7 AMP

🟑 β€œDo not be anxious or worried about anything, but in everything [every circumstance and situation] by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, continue to make your [specific] requests known to God.

🟑 And the peace of God [that peace which reassures the heart, that peace] which transcends all understanding, [that peace which] stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus [is yours].”

🌺We are to pray about our situation continually without ceasing.

✝️1 Thessalonians 5:17 AMP says…

πŸŸ‘β€œbe unceasing and persistent in prayer;”

🎈 𝐖𝐄 πŒπ”π’π“ 𝐁𝐄 π‚πŽππ…πˆπƒπ„ππ“.

We need God-confidence in whatever situation we find ourselves at all times.

✝️Apostle Paul said in Philippians 1:6 AMP…

πŸŸ‘β€œI am convinced and confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will [continue to] perfect and complete it until the day of Christ Jesus [the time of His return].”

🎈 𝐖𝐄 πŒπ”π’π“ 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐄.

🌺We must not despair or go weary. We must not give up or give in.

✝️Galatians 6:9 AMP encourages…

πŸŸ‘β€œLet us not grow weary or become discouraged in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap, if we do not give in.”

Key phrase; β€œIF WE DO NOT GIVE UP”

🎈 𝐖𝐄 πŒπ”π’π“ 𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄 π‡πŽππ„.

🌺We must keep encouraging ourselves and others that God is absolutely faithful. He already knows what is going to happen, so keep holding onto to hope. He who promised is faithful.

✝️Hebrews 10:23-24 AMP encourages…

🟑 β€œLet us seize and hold tightly the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is reliable and trustworthy and faithful [to His word]; and let us consider [thoughtfully] how we may encourage one another to love and to do good deeds,”

🎈 𝐖𝐄 πŒπ”π’π“ ππ‘π€πˆπ’π„ π†πŽπƒ 𝐈𝐍 π€ππ˜ π’πˆπ“π”π€π“πˆπŽπ.

🌺Even in moments when we can not see the future and we don’t know exactly what to do, bless the Lord. Give Him praise! Lift him up! As we lift Him up, His glory is known and seen.

✝️The psalmist says in Psalms 34:1 AMP…

πŸŸ‘β€œI will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.”
