Doing our bidding

Good Morning! Eccles 5:2 Do not be quick with your mouth, do not be hasty in your heart to utter anything before God. God is in heaven and you are on earth, so let your words be few. Let me ask you something, Have you ever tried to make deals with God? I know I used to back in the day, when I'd be sitting in a jail cell for something and say to God, "God just get me out of this one and I will never do that again." But we have all probably done that at some time or another. But how about today? Do you try and make Deals with God? Do you try and get God to do your Bidding? Do you tell God, "Okay God! If you will do this for me, then I will be this way, or I will do that for you. But you see we were placed here for a reason. And that was to do Gods will. Not try and get God to bless OURS. And how about when he does give you something you want, do you go through with what you vowed to do for Him? Vs 4, When you make a vow to God, do not delay in fulfilling it. He has no pleasure in fools; fulfill your vow. Yes! How many of us get what we want from God and say, Thank You and Praise God and then go on our merry way. I talk about this, cause I do it all the time. Please God, just do that, and Please help me with this. Instead of just concentrating on doing His will. His will. God knows whats best for us, and when we are trying to make deals, we are only being fools, and we are mocking God. So today if you catch yourself saying, "OK God I'll tell you what." You need to stop and regroup, because you are about to try and make a deal, and try and get God to do your Bidding. God doesn't work like that! As a matter of fact He has already given us the Best Deal and did OUR Bidding when He sent his Son to die for our sins. Life is not a Deal or No Deal game. It is about Commitment and Obedience to God. Not you work with me and I'll work with you. God is Sovereign! HABD!
