It is not uncommon to make presumptions, thinking that we know what Yahuah wants to do or say, yet we have not actually asked Him. This normally comes from a willingness to bless and encourage, but the reality is we can do this without listening to He who loves us best. This means that when correction is needed, it is overlooked.
We have feared men more than we have feared Yahuah, and instead of taking time to consider what Yahuah is saying, we assume that we know what He would say or do in any given circumstance.
But now is the time in which the Lord God Almighty is calling His people to listen and not presume; to fear Him and not men, speaking the words that He is saying and being silent when He does not speak. It is a time to do what He is leading us to do and not to assume that we know His perfect will without asking first.
Prayer: Yahuah, forgive me for my presumption in assuming that I know what You are going to say or intend to do without taking time to actually listen to You. Forgive me for putting words in Your mouth and misrepresenting what you want to say and do things that You are not doing. Please take my heart, correct my attitude, and remove any presumption on my part. Help me to always seek You and Your will before I act or speak. Amen.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of Yahuah.
Romans 12:2 (NIV)
14 This is the confidence we have in approaching Yahuah: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
15 And if we know that He hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of Him.
1 John 5:14-15 (NIV)
