Proverbs 29:26
Many seek the ruler's favour; but every man's
judgment cometh from the Lord.
Sometimes we look to people to tell us whether we
are doing a good job or not. We could
expect our husband’s approval or a friend’s warm response but it is much better
to go before the Lord and get His judgment of the matter. How do we get this judgment? One way is to lie in bed at night and review
the day before the Lord is prayer. Bring
our relationships and responsibilities before Him and seek His evaluation. A scripture might come to mind regarding a
situation. This is God speaking. It could be a verse that affirms and approves
or one that rebukes and corrects. It
could be a verse that directs us for the next day or maybe we might just sense
the Holy Spirit grieving or the mind of Christ approving. We can pray after a task or ministry and ask
the Lord to reveal His judgment on it.
Remember not to just listen for what you might have done wrong but be
open to His joy and gladness over your works.
He is a good Father and good fathers give lots of praise and
encouragement.
