Ask Carefully

As I was reading in 1 Samuel today, I was struck by something that I overlooked previously.

Apparently, somewhere along the line the Israelites became extremely insecure and more concerned with being like everyone else that they too, wanted a "king like the other nations."
What they forgot was that God the King of all kings, had already promised to be their king and provide all that they would ever need.
The problem was not in what they asked for but why they asked for it!

Before you begin asking for things make sure that: 1) it hasn't already been promised to you 2) that it lines up with Gods will.
The sovereign King of the universe knows exactly what you need and has a plan to get you there...
