Good morning,
We are always looking for formulas to enhance the way we live our lives. Today we will see a simple formula that has life changing implications. However, the formula is only as good as the implementation. It is only effective and life changing if implemented without reservations.
Oh, what a blessed formula for us!
(John MacDuff)
“Nevertheless, at Your Word!” Luke 5:5
Oh, what a blessed formula for us!
This path of mine is dark, mysterious, perplexing! Nevertheless, at Your Word I will go forward.
This trial of mine is cutting, sore for flesh and blood to bear! It is hard to breathe through a broken heart, “May Your will be done!” But, nevertheless, at Your word I will say, “Even so, Father–for this is Your good pleasure!”
This besetting sin or bad habit of mine–is difficult to crucify. It has become part of myself–a second nature! To be severed from it would be like the cutting off of a right hand, or the plucking out of a right eye! Nevertheless, at Your Word I will lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily entangles me! This idol, I will utterly abolish!
“You have laid down precepts that are to be fully obeyed!” Psalm 119:4
“Help me understand Your instruction–and I will obey it and follow it with all my heart!” Psalm 119:34

If we want our lives to change, we must obey God’s word.
