The Sure Word for Today

Regularly reflecting on and adjusting your intentions is essential for staying aligned with God's will. As life changes, so too must your plans and goals. King David provides an example of this in the Bible. Though David initially planned to build a temple for God, he adjusted his intentions when God revealed that it was not his role but Solomon's. David's willingness to realign his plans with God's purpose shows that flexibility and obedience are key to fulfilling your divine calling.

Reflection helps you to evaluate whether your intentions remain in sync with God’s plans. Life’s journey can often bring distractions, but by consistently seeking God’s guidance, you can realign your goals to match His. David sought God’s direction repeatedly throughout his life, ensuring that his actions and decisions aligned with God’s will. When you make time to reflect, you open your heart to divine adjustments that lead to greater fulfilment and peace.

The Bible encourages regular self-examination, urging you to assess and refine your intentions. In Proverbs 3:5- 6, you're reminded to trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your understanding. When your intentions drift from God's path, reflection and adjustment bring you back on track. Just as David adjusted his plans when God directed him, you, too, should be ready to change course when God speaks, ensuring your intentions remain true and purposeful.
