* Proverbs 3


5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

6 In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and HE shall direct thy paths.

7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.


***

(Joan Boney, apostle and prophet of Jesus Christ according to Ephesians 4:11-12)


Trust in the LORD with all thine heart:

The Lord is The Word.

John 1   

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

2 The same was in the beginning with God.

3 All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made.

4 In Him was life; and the life was the light of men.

The Word was in the beginning.  Then The Word came to earth for a short season in the form of a human named Jesus.  He died for our sins and was raised from the dead by God and was taken back into heaven where HE now sits at the right hand of God and intercedes for us as The Word.

HE has given His spirit, the Holy Spirit, to live in each believer.

And Jesus comes to us now as The Word to teach us and guide us and lead us and to show us things to come.  (John 14:26 & John 16:13)

Jesus lives in us. (2 Cor. 13:5)

We can trust Him. He knows: past, present, future

He puts us at the exact place where we should live and at the exact time. (Acts 17:26)

He will not leave us, nor fail us, nor forsake us.  (Heb. 13:5)

He provides everything we need. (Psalm 23:1)

At the end of this world, HE will take us to the new heaven and the new earth, and we will dwell with God and with The Word and the church forever. (Rev. 21:1-5)


***

*  and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Proverbs 14:12   There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

***

* In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and HE shall direct thy paths.

Pray over all things ... and wait until you are led by HIM.  He will bring thoughts to your mind to lead you.

Philippians 4

6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Remember:  God's yoke is easy and HIS burden is light.  

Matthew 11

28 Come unto ME, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

29 Take MY yoke upon you, and learn of ME; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

30 For MY yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

* Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.

Seek God's wisdom through prayer.

James 1:5  If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.


The plan given us by God will be pure, simple, gentle, easy to be entreated.  It will not be a burden financially.  It will not be overly complex or difficult.  (James 3:17)

The plans of this world, of men, and of devil is usually very hard to do and expensive.

John 10:10  Jesus says:  The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
