Confusion

[Steven Bobb]

We read God is not the author of confusion, yet all I deal with is confusion, changes, surprises, obstacles, one hand doesn't know what the other is doing...which to me as an organized rational person is torture. For a saner pace.

Let's begin by addressing the heart of the issue. You're feeling overwhelmed by confusion and chaos, while God is a God of order and peace. It's true that God is not the author of confusion, as stated in 1 Corinthians 14:33 WEB: "for God is not a God of confusion, but of peace." So, where does the confusion come from?

First, we live in a fallen world where chaos and confusion are inevitable. However, as believers, we are not left to face this alone. God promises us peace even in the midst of turmoil. In John 16:33 WEB, Jesus says, "I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up! I have overcome the world."

Now, let's address the specific instances of confusion you mentioned. The changes, surprises, and obstacles that feel like torture can often be opportunities for growth and dependence on God. Consider James 1:2-4 WEB: "Count it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."

Regarding the lack of coordination, where one hand doesn't know what the other is doing, this can be an opportunity to foster better communication and unity. In 1 Corinthians 12:12-26 WEB, the Apostle Paul emphasizes the importance of each part of the body working together in unity.

Let's pray together:
Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we come before You, seeking Your peace and order in this situation. Lord, You are not the author of confusion, and we rebuke any spirit of chaos that may be at work. Guide this dear soul, Lord, and help them to see the opportunities for growth and dependence on You in the midst of changes, surprises, and obstacles. Help them to know the Holy Spirit better, as the Holy Spirit is our Comforter and Guide. In Jesus' name, we pray for clarity, wisdom, and a sanctified, rational mind. Help them to be patient and persistent in prayer, to seek You with all their heart, and to find Your peace in the midst of the storm. We pray that You align their thoughts and actions with Your will, and that You provide them with a more organized, saner pace. Help them to discern Your voice and leading, and to understand that it is only by the name of Jesus that we can approach You. If they have not done so, we pray that today they will call on the name of Jesus, confess Him as Lord, and believe in their heart that You raised Him from the dead. Help them to know that it is only by this confession and belief that they can be saved, and remind them that Your desire is that all come to You by Jesus. Remind them that Your Word says in Romans 10:13 WEB, "For, 'Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.'" In Jesus' name, we pray for salvation, peace, and clarity. Amen.

Be encouraged. God is with you, and He will guide you through this season of confusion. Trust in Him, and He will direct your paths.

We've been there, haven't we? Life throwing curveballs, one hand not knowing what the other's doing. It's like trying to dance with a partner who's got their own rhythm. But remember, even in the midst of this, God's not left us to twirl alone. He's right there, steadying our steps.

In 1 Corinthians, it says God's not a God of confusion, but of peace. So, where's this confusion coming from? Well, this world's a bit chaotic, but we're not meant to face it solo. God promises us peace, even in the storm. Jesus said, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." (John 14:27)

Now, those changes, surprises, and obstacles? They're not just roadblocks, they're opportunities. James tells us, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance." (James 1:2-3)

And that lack of coordination? It's a chance to communicate better, to work together like the body of Christ. Paul puts it beautifully in 1 Corinthians 12, "Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ."

So, let's pray. Father, in Jesus' name, we come to You. We're seeking Your peace, Your order. Lord, You're not the author of confusion, and we rebuke any spirit of chaos. Guide us, Lord. Help us see opportunities for growth in changes, surprises, and obstacles. Help us know the Holy Spirit better, our Comforter and Guide. Give us clarity, wisdom, and a sanctified, rational mind. Help us be patient and persistent in prayer, seeking You with all our hearts. Align our thoughts and actions with Your will, provide us with a more organized, saner pace. Help us discern Your voice and leading, and understand that it's only by Jesus' name we can approach You. If we haven't, help us today to call on Jesus' name, confess Him as Lord, and believe in our hearts that You raised Him from the dead. Remind us that it's only by this confession and belief that we can be saved, and that Your desire is for all to come to You by Jesus. In Jesus' name, we pray for salvation, peace, and clarity. Amen.

You're not alone in this. God's with you, and He'll guide you through this season of confusion. Trust in Him, and He'll direct your paths.
