“Doing It God’s Way”

3 30 2020 Isaiah 30 21
Praise The Lord Everyone!!! ✝️❤️😊

 
First Lady Donece likes to joke with me about a trip we took to Columbus, Ohio.
 
She said, “you need to go this way as she pointed to the off-ramp ahead, which redirected me toward our hotel after not listening to the directions of our GPS. I’d traveled to our destination a few times, so I wasn’t following the verbal commands of our navigation system. It had been a long day, and I was tired and wasn’t as focused as I should have been. You see, all I had to do is listen to my navigation system. Instead, I went 12 miles out of the way and through a tough-looking neighborhood.
 
As I was meditating on our morning’s Bible passage, that adventure came to my mind. Before being spiritually reinstated and reunited with God I’d often deviate from obediently doing it God’s way, I was always captivated by the impulses to pursue what I want instead of seeking His ways. Beloved, how often have you (or know someone) that have done the same thing?
 
Now meditate just a moment on Isaiah 30:21. I want you to feel the words of Isaiah from God for Israel: “Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it’.” Earlier in that chapter, God had rebuked His people for their defiance. But if they would trust His strength instead of their own ways (v. 15), He guaranteed to show His kindness and generosity (v.18).
 
One manifestation of God’s generosity is His guarantee to guide us by His Spirit. It materializes as we talk to Him about our aspirations and ask in prayer what He has for us. I’m thankful God patiently instructs us, day-by-day, step-by-step, as we have confidence in Him and listen for His voice. Amen and Aaamen!!! ✝️❤️😊
 
Let Us Pray:
Dear Heavenly Father, You’ve agreed to guide us through the ups and downs and choices we face in life. Help us to have confidence, hold on to You, and to listen for Your voice to direct us actively. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen and Aaamen. ✝️❤️
 
I Love you all!!! Have a joyful Monday and a secure and sensible week Everyone. ✝️❤️😊
