Learning to be Content Day 2


Psalm 56
Ephesians 3:20
Romans 15:4

Judging from Romans 15:4 I wouldn't have come to the conclusion that what David had to endure before he became King was meaningless. I'd be confident to say that God was training David to be reliant on Him way before he was crowned. King David wasn't perfect but he was kept himself reliant on God throughout his life. This was made clear in the final verse of Psalm 59 "my God on whom I can rely". I hope and pray for this type of longing for God. David wasn't praying to God because he wanted convenience, he prayed to God because he had faith that God would be faithful to His promise. I've read the Bible in it's entirety twice from back to front and God's character has never changed, He has always been astoundingly jealous and faithful to those He loves. Now for me I hope there'd be a fear put inside me that the one who I worship is jealous, this is even more reason me for to come running to Him. 

Prayer/repentance:
- I cast aside my idols to focus on God diligently
- Be content with my place in God's kingdom even if I may not currently be joyful in it
- Instill a fear inside the hearts of the Vision team. Let them worship you wholeheartedly and grow in love for Cape Town.
