Isaiah 30: 21 And your ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, this is the way, walk you in it, when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left.
The days that are coming upon the land will call for a different and higher level of obedience that some Christians may not yet be familiar with. When prime time comes around, we should have already learned the critically important lessons of how to wait upon God for everything. Thus, in our ongoing experiences He seeks to teach us bit by bit, how to trust, how to wait, how to read His providences and how to obey, in times when His providences might direct us to do this or that.
God’s written word, and His voice in our consciences are always to form the backbone and the springboard of all our actions. When making any move or when having to make a major decision that can have serious consequences, God’s written word must be consulted, and His Holy Spirit should be sought after through prayer, so that He will direct us in the ways of His choosing. There will at times be pressures and deadlines, and times of panic when persons will be tempted to run ahead of God’s guidance.
These instances should be carefully guarded, lest a wrong move can potentially place persons in a compromised position which they did not cater for. One of satan’s devices is to create an atmosphere of panic and uncertainty, so that persons will become fretted and confused as to what course of action to pursue, and if, like the Hebrews of old, they were to see pharaoh coming after them in the distance, they can be driven to make hurried, ill-advised decisions that may be contrary to God’s will.
Psalms 27:14 Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
