Analyse Every Act Of God

"Great are the works of the LORD; they are pondered by all who delight in them."
Psalm 111: 2

Even the tiniest work of God is so skillful and excellent, when we explore the hidden wisdom of God beneath the surface of whatever He has done. Let us not just take everything for granted, but meditate and evaluate on all His works (143:5), to understand His purpose, power and wisdom.

Pray And Act

"..we prayed to our God and set a guard as a protection against them day and night." Nehemiah 4:9

Let us first pray, seeking God's strength, leadership and favor before starting a work. Let us realize our limitations and seek His unlimited providence. Let us not just pray and sit back, neglecting our responsibility, but get down into action. Nothing should frighten us from our mission. Let us cast all our cares, griefs and fears before God and be careful to carry out our duty.

Do Not Act. Let God Act

"..Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again."
Exodus 14:13

When there is no hope or courage in us and when we feel blown away, the Lord prompts us not to fear, quit crying, moaning or attacking and just be quiet, wait for Him and watch His move for us. We need to let God have our situation in His control. He will find a way to bring us out of it as more than conquerors.
