John answered, "A person cannot receive even one thing unless it is given him from heaven (John 3:27). God's people, ought not to be lazy. However, they should be in total surrender to the will of God. When God gives command; they do so. When God gives and okay, they do so. We don't just JUMP the GUN and pursue our own perception of what we think is God's will. Jesus is LORD. He is Master. That is what "Lord" means. He ought to be, the influence of every thought, every word, every judgment, and every decision we make. He should consume us. Why do God's people do what they do? Why do they say what they do? Because Christ shed His blood for their soul.
There are people, whom God has called to wait. We are to be still and know that He is GOD. (Ps 46:10). You must understand that GOD's will is going to come to pass. God is sovereign. There is nothing that has happened, is happening, or will happen that God is not in control of. It is God's desire that we work, however He opens the door! He provides the task, He leads the way, by the leading of the Holy Spirit. From where does each heart beat come from? It comes from God. From where does your ability to move come from? It comes from God! So all of these people who have plans: YOUR HEART WON'T BEAT. YOU CAN'T EVEN MOVE APART FROM THE POWER OF GOD IN YOUR LIFE. Let us remain with a recognition of weakness: "Thy will be done."
