SIMPLE not complicated

To complicate is to "twist together." We can see from that definition that if doubt and unbelief are mixed or twisted together with belief, the result will be complication.

Complicated means "bewildering." When we mix doubt and unbelief with belief, we'll feel bewildered, not knowing what to do, but busily trying to figure it out. We'll feel as if our problems seem too much to handle, as if they're not being heard or answered.

James 1:6-8 talks about the double-minded (complicated, bewildered) man is unstable in all his ways and that he should not think that if will receive anything he asks from the LORD- and that includes wisdom and guidance.

In comparison to the complex is the simple things. :) Simple is defined as "having or composing of only ONE thing or part; not complex: easy. Unassuming, unpretentious, sincere, not deceitful. Having no overtones, no divisions."

The simple things are of the LORD and if we are seeking answers to our circumstances, for prosperity, healing or success in every area of our lives, it is needful for us to seek ONE thing.

Psalm 27:4- ONE thing have I asked of the LORD, that I will seek, inquire for, and insistently require: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD, and His presence, all the
days of my life, to behold and gaze upon the beauty- the sweet attractiveness and the delightful loveliness- of the LORD and to meditate, consider, and inquire in His temple.

Today we don't need to seek many things, just ONE thing- Jesus.

See Matthew 6:33- it tells us if we seek His Kingdom and His righteousness, ALL these other things we desire and seek after will be given to us besides! :) Praise Jesus!
