Topic: Uncertainties
Today’s Scripture
Romans 8:26, NIV – In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.
Joel Osteen 10th December 2021 Daily Devotional Message
The apostle Paul wrote nearly half the books of the New Testament and was one of the most brilliant minds of his day. Yet, he said he didn’t always know what to pray. He was comfortable with what he didn’t know. He didn’t see it as a lack of faith to admit, “I don’t have all the answers. I don’t know what to pray. I have uncertainties, things I don’t understand, things I’m not sure how they’re going to work out.” The reason he could say this and not be worried about what he didn’t know is found two verses later. “We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him.”
Are you frustrated by what you don’t know, by what you can’t figure out, by what doesn’t look like it’s going to work out? Have a new perspective. It’s okay to not have all the answers as long as you know the God who is on the throne and working all things for your good.
Prayer for Today
Father, thank You that You are the Most High God who sees every uncertainty and every unknown I will ever face. Thank You that You have a plan for my life, and You are working all things for my good. I declare that my peace and strength are in You alone. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
