Stop, Drop, and Worship

Worship and simple trust—that’s what the Lord Jesus wants from us. He does not want the most polished or eloquent prayer or our promises to do this if He’ll do that. Right in the midst of whatever trouble we’re facing, He asks us to trust and worship Him. God has promised to carry His people through whatever difficulties they may face but not necessarily around or out of them.

Do you have your own version of Daniel’s lion’s den or a Job-type experience? Has the Lord allowed you to be “thrown to the lions,” or did you perhaps jump right in due to your own bad choices? How are you handling it? I encourage you to lift your hands and drop to your knees in surrendered worship. Your Father God will make a way where there seems to be no way. You can count on it. He is worthy of your absolute trust, beloved.

Prayer for the Day

My Father, I lay my burdens at Your feet. I surrender this “lion’s den” experience to You and choose to trust You through it. I choose to worship You in the midst of it. Where there was once turmoil and confusion, cause Your peace to fill me. I love You, Lord. In Jesus’s name, amen.
