Job 34:33
33 Should it be according to thy mind? he will recompense [shalam] it, whether thou refuse [kiy] [ma'ac], or whether thou choose [bachar]; and not I: therefore speak [dabar] what thou knowest [yada`]. KJV-Interlinear
33 'Shall He recompense on your terms, because you have rejected it? For you must choose, and not I; Therefore declare what you know. NASB
There are only two opinions in the universe - Gods opinion which is truth, and everything else. The sin which rejects truth is arrogance. All other departures from truth, all other sins, cascade down from arrogance.
So, anytime you fail in your spiritual life, arrogance is always involved. By the way, it should always be included in your confession list. No extra charge for that tidbit.
God is the sovereign of the universe. God is omniscient and God is omnipotent. He knows everything and He is able to do anything.
Since God is all knowing, all powerful and always truth, then it stands to reason that His will, is the best option in any situation. That His counsel is the best counsel available. That His advice, His guidance, His suggestions cannot be bettered anywhere else, by anybody.
Gods terms for life are designed for your best interest, and His terms are based on truth, not lies or deceptions.
Man, or you, have not been around very long in this universe. Man, or you, have not seen the expanse of the universe either through the telescope or under the microscope. Man, or you, are severely limited in knowledge.
Therefore, God follows a policy based on His terms, which is truth, not yours. And just because you happen to not like something, just because you disagree with something, does not make your opinion or your preference, or the convenience which you desire, right.
When folks disagree with Gods truth, they are just about 100% wrong. That is pretty close to being wrong all of the time.
There is no wiggle room around truth.
But God will not decide for you. No other person can decide for you.
Each individual is on their own. Each person makes their own decisions, and even ignoring or avoiding decisions is really a decision of indifference or irresponsibility.
