LET THE LORD DIRECT

-

Numbers 9:2,4,8

“Tell the Israelites to celebrate the Passover at the prescribed time,

So Moses told the people to celebrate the Passover

Moses answered, “Wait here until I have received instructions for you from the Lord.”


In our Christian walk we get to points and situations that may not seem very clear to us. We may have looked at scriptures and sought advice from elders etc, yet there is no clear instructions on what to do. We need to wait on the Lord.


This is why it is easier to live a life that is in continual fellowship with the Lord, so that it doesn't look strange to hear from Him or receive His instructions.


Many a times we are so filled up with ideas and opinions from the world, media and people that we do not place much importance on God's direct guidance to us.


Proverbs 3:5-7

Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.

Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.

Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom. 

Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil.


We mustn't get it wrong, definitely there are things that are clear in scriptures and in our conscience there is no need to beat around the bush with them, however like we see in Numbers 9:1-14, there are times we need to be absolutely sure, especially when it comes to condemnation and things concerning the law.


As believers we walk by faith in the Spirit, not by the law, we walk in the love of God and truth, which is obedience to Him.

Remember that when the enemy was tempting Christ He was quoting scriptures!


It is not childishness to seek Godly counsel when you are not sure but actually a sign of maturity.


1 Corinthians 8:2-3

Anyone who claims to know all the answers doesn’t really know very much.

But the person who loves God is the one whom God recognizes.


Look at the ones who brought the woman caught in adultery to Jesus, they thought they knew enough, "O yes, let us hear what He would say now". After the encounter none of them was still waiting around, they walked away one by one in shame.


Let the Lord direct.


If you have the slightest doubt, seek the Lord, make it clear, then you move ahead without regret.


God is love!


O help us Good Lord.


PRAYER

Holy Father help me to seek Your guidance in all things. My constant dwelling in Your presence would help me know Your will concerning all things, lead me Lord, I surrender completely to You.


He calls us blessed.


Love

@the watcher.

MAINTAIN A GODLY MARRIAGE

-
Judges 13:2-3,6,10 In those days a man named Manoah from the tribe of Dan lived in the town of Zorah. His wife was unable to become pregnant, and they had no children. The angel of the Lord appeared to Manoah’s wife and said, “Even though you have been unable to have children, you will soon become pregnant and give birth to a son. The woman ran and told her husband, “A man of God appeared to me! He looked like one of God’s angels, terrifying to see. I didn’t ask where he was from, and he didn’t tell me his name. So she quickly ran and told her husband, “The man who appeared to me the other day is here again!” We live in times when the institution of marriage is being destroyed from in and out of the church. Divorce rate is high and many are in a marriage but are not happy therein. What is the problem? God has been taken out of the equation. How? Jesus said: Matthew 19:8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted divorce only as a concession to your hard hearts, but it was not what God had origina

Remember: God is in control.

As we go through the 11th month of this year of accomplishment, let us be reminded. When it seems to hurt so much, or it all looks quiet and alone, when it appears not to work out. Please don't give up, God is still in control Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. My dear it is not about how you feel, and not about what it seems, it is about what He Has promised and He who promised is sure to keep His Word. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:12 " Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you." God is in control and His plans for you are good. He has already done it. Romans 4:21 " and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform." Have a

NEEDLESS BATTLES

-
Judges 12:1-4 Then the people of Ephraim mobilized an army and crossed over the Jordan River to Zaphon. They sent this message to Jephthah: “Why didn’t you call for us to help you fight against the Ammonites? We are going to burn down your house with you in it!” Jephthah replied, “I summoned you at the beginning of the dispute, but you refused to come! You failed to help us in our struggle against Ammon. So when I realized you weren’t coming, I risked my life and went to battle without you, and the Lord gave me victory over the Ammonites. So why have you now come to fight me?” The people of Ephraim responded, “You men of Gilead are nothing more than fugitives from Ephraim and Manasseh.” So Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead and attacked the men of Ephraim and defeated them. When the Lord does not lead you, you become prone to minding and walking with unnecessary things, like fighting unnecessary battles and stirring evil sentiments. I have always said that devices like racism, tri
