July 5. Don't Plan Without God "Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass" (Psalm 37:5). Don't plan without God. God seems to have a delightful way of upsetting the plans we have made, when we have not taken Him into account. We get ourselves into circumstances that were not chosen by God, and suddenly we realize that we have been making our plans without Him?that we have not even considered Him to be a vital, living factor in the planning of our lives. And yet the only thing that will keep us from even the possibility of worrying is to bring God in as the greatest factor in all of our planning. In spiritual issues it is customary for us to put God first, but we tend to think that it is inappropriate and unnecessary to put Him first in the practical, everyday issues of our lives. If we have the idea that we have to put on our "spiritual face" before we can come near to God, then we will never come near to Him. We must come as we are. Don't plan with a concern for evil in mind. Does God really mean for us to plan without taking the evil around us into account? "Love... thinks no evil" (1 Corinthians 13:4-5). Love is not ignorant of the existence of evil, but it does not take it into account as a factor in planning. When we were apart from God, we did take evil into account, doing all of our planning with it in mind, and we tried to reason out all of our work from its standpoint. Don't plan with a rainy day in mind. You cannot hoard things for a rainy day if you are truly trusting Christ. Jesus said, "Let not your heart be troubled... " (John 14:1). God will not keep your heart from being troubled. It is a command?"Let not... " To do it, continually pick yourself up, even if you fall a hundred and one times a day, until you get into the habit of putting God first and planning with Him in mind.

Lord, we need only go to the Scripture to see pure joy expressed by those who have been set free from the grip of sin. I pray that others will observe the deep inner joy that I possess because of Your presence in my life. Mornings with Tozer.

July 4. Only God Is Free Standfast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free. Galatians 5:1 To any human who bothers to think a bit, it should be evident that there is in our society no such thing as absolute freedom?for only God is free! It is inherent in creaturehood that its freedom must be limited by the will of the Creator and the nature of the thing created. Freedom is liberty within bounds, liberty to obey holy laws, liberty to keep the commandments of Christ, to serve mankind, to develop to the full all the latent possibilities within our redeemed natures. True Christian liberty never sets us free to indulge our lusts or to follow our fallen impulses. On earth, a healthy society requires that its members accept a limited freedom. Each must curtail his own liberty that all may be free, and this law runs throughout all of the created universe, including the kingdom of God. The glory of heaven itself lies in the character of the freedom enjoyed by those who dwell therein! Lord, today I pray for the members of the churches in my community. Empower them (and myself) to curb their "fallen impulses" and to be a bright beacon in the midst of a dark society. Mornings with Tozer.

July 2 Help me, O merciful High Priest, to pray for those who have met with accident and sudden sorrow; for those who are passing through the fire, that they may not be burned; for those who are wading in deep waters, that they may not be swept down; for those who are in the midst of their enemies, that they may not be overpowered; for those who are lonely and desolate and forlorn, that they may not lose heart.
