It Must Be the Lord’s

Scripture Psalms 127:1 A song of Ascents. Of Solomon. Unless the LORD builds the house, They labor in vain who build it; Unless the LORD guards the city, The watchman stays awake in vain.

Observation: Basically, if it’s not the Lord’s will it is futile. If we do things on our own without asking God for guidance what we are doing is useless. We need God’s guidance before doing anything. Whatever we do here that is not of God will shall be burned up and lost forever.

Application: I need to stop doing things without asking God if this is what He desires. I do so many things that are wrong and a waste of my time, time that could have been spent on doing God’s will. I need to stop and pray and make sure what I’m about to do is scripturally based and not of my own desires.

Prayer: My Lord please help me do what pleases you. I’m lost so much of the time, because I don’t ask for direction from you. Take charge of my life and guide me each day and help me not take the wrong road, but be on the path you have chosen for me.
