Romans 7:20-25 Now if I do that  I would not, it is no more  I that do it but sin that dwelleth in me. I find then a law,that, when I would do good. evil is present with me. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me in to captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.

Today was another day of battles within me. I pray that the Lord will lead me and guide me to do things right according to his word.I don't claim to be perfect,  but I know I can be; because Jesus said so in his word. Jesus said in Matthews 5:48-Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.  Right now there is a battle within me concerning a change I feel I need in my life or more so want in my life.  I really want to move and gain employment elsewhere. However, I am not sure if it is God's will but I don't want to continue to feel burdened wiht the job I currently have. Being thankful for where I am is a choice that I make everyday. I have to make a choice to either obey God's word or fall into a life of misery that will not benefit the kingdom of God or my walk with Christ.  I realize Jesus that I move too hasty at times, but this time I I am willing to wait for the answer from you.I don't want to move without you leading us to move. My husband and I both feel that it is time to move on to other career opportunities and relocate for various reasons. The number one reason is to become closer to Jesus, but then I think within myself will moving get us closer to God. We have made so many changes in our lives that we are not as close to God as we should be. I don't want to  move merely because I want to move or I feel that we should because everything isn't working out the way we want to or how WE think it should be. Lord, I pray right now that you speak to my spirit that and I say this prayer aloud and as I type that you lead us where you want to go. Father I come you with full assurance that you will show me and my husband the way we should go. not only show us the way but give us the knowledge, wisdom and understanding that we need to increase in you. Jesus, I realize that jobs, houses and land is not going to matter at all without you in our lives. I ask you now Father in the name of Jesus to show me the way, Lord show me where you want me to be. Lord, I desire for you to use me. Lord what will you have me to do. Mold me and shape me Jesus into a vessel you can use. I come to you Father in the name of Jesus now believing that you will show me what you have me to do. I am going to trust you Jesus, I am not going to waver in my faith because you are my Lord, my savior and my master and you will not lead me the wrong way. Order my steps in your word Lord and teach me how to fight the battles within me that are not building me up in you. My flesh is leading me to just make that move without being sure if it is your will. The flesh want me to believe that  this is the Lord's will. However I will not truly know until it is revealed to me. I know that if it is your will, I can be assured that when we move that it will be your will and the purpose of that will  be to build your kingdom and not fulfilling my own fleshly desires.  My spiritual man is leading me right now to sit, to be still, be thankful with where I am, and grow in you Jesus where I am. I can't expect to move and expect better until I am growing in Christ more where I am. I must draw near to you where I am. Waiting until I am in a better home or car is not going to make me a better person in Christ.  I have to keep in mind what your word says and I pray that you will always put me into remembrance of your word. Your word states in Colossians 3:1-3. If ye then be risen with Christ seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affections on things above, not on things on this earth. Thank you Jesus for your word. Help me in my daily walk that I seek the things from above. Not my will be done Jesus, but your will be done Jesus. Matthew 6:33 seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you.  Thank you Jesus for your word that direct my paths. Help me to overcome the flesh by following the things that are of Christ. I stand bold on your word that you will never leave me or forsake me.

Until next time...be blessed
