Today, in our Daily Devotional for June 1, let’s reflect on the importance of building with God and ensuring He is at the center of our efforts.
Daily Devotional for June 1
“Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain.” – Psalm 127:1 (NIV)
Building with God
To succeed in any endeavor, whether it’s a marriage, a business, or your personal life, you need God at the helm. When God is the head of your building committee, your efforts are not in vain. Even the best-laid plans can falter and fail without His guidance and blessing.
Consider your life today and ask yourself if you are trying to do things without inviting God to be part of them. If so, you may be struggling and frustrated because things are not working well.
God is waiting to be invited into your plans and projects. All you need to do is ask Him.
Inviting God into Your Plans
Inviting God into your plans requires humility and a willingness to surrender control. It means acknowledging that you need His wisdom and guidance to succeed.
When you humble yourself under God’s hand, He will guide and direct you, providing the clarity and strength you need to move forward.
Think about a project or goal you are currently working on. Have you sought God’s guidance and invited Him to lead the way? If not, take a moment to pray and ask Him to be in charge. Trust that He knows the best path for you and will help you achieve success.
The Benefits of Building with God
When you build with God, you align yourself with His will and purpose for your life. This alignment brings peace, confidence, and assurance that you are on the right track.
You no longer have to rely solely on your own strength and understanding; instead, you can lean on God’s infinite wisdom and power.
Building with God also means you are open to His timing and methods. Sometimes, what we think is best may not be God’s plan for us. Trusting in His process allows you to experience His blessings in ways you might not have imagined.
