Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. — Psalm 90:12
When we lose our sense of urgency to live for God, we end up wasting our time! God has a plan for us, for our world, and for his church. Without God's gift of "spiritual arithmetic" (numbering our days aright), we will never gain a heart of wisdom. So how do we get such a gift?
Ask for it without doubting (James 1:5-7)! Trusting the Lord for wisdom has a huge effect on us and the way we conduct our lives. Rather than losing heart, God gives us a heart of wisdom!
Facts About God’s Will
. Pray for His will to be done
Matthew 6:10
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
. Say, “If it is the Lord’s will…
James 4:15
Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.”
. Do it from your heart
Ephesians 6:6
Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart.
. Live for the will of God
1 Peter 4:2
As a result, they do not live the rest of their earthly lives for evil human desires, but rather for the will of God.
. Understand the Lord’s will
Ephesians 5:17
Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.
