DIVINE DIRECTION

Psalms 37:23. 

The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.

Everyone needs direction in life, but more importantly, everyone needs divine direction in life.

Have you ever been misled while seeking for direction to a place before? It can be very frustrating. But what is more frustrating is to lack God's direction in life.

Jeremiah 10:23 says, _O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps_ Yes, man lacks the capacity to correctly direct his own steps in life. Man lacks the ability to correctly control his own life.

Only the Lord can order the steps of man in the right path and in the path of destiny. However, God will not order everyone's steps, He will only order the steps of those who surrender to Him.

Eliezer, Abraham's servant who was saddled with the responsibility of looking for a wife for Issac, (Abraham's son,)  committed his ways to the Lord and God ordered his steps aright.

Eliezer prayed thus- May it be that the young woman to whom I ask, ‘Please, lower your jug so that I may drink,’ responds, ‘Have a drink, and I’ll water your camels as well.’ May she be the one whom you have chosen for your servant Isaac. This is how I’ll know that you have shown your gracious love to my master.” Genesis 24:14. Before he had finished speaking, Rebekah appeared.

In response to his heartfelt prayer, the steps of Rebecca was divinely directed and led into destiny.

How come it was Rebecca who came out immediately after the man's prayer? How was the timing so perfect like that? Well, it can only be through divine direction.

God ordered the steps of Rebecca to the well that fateful day, but ultimately God was ordering her steps into the lineage of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

To fulfill destiny, your steps must be divinely directed everyday.

Psalms 37:5 says, *Commit your way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.* Trust the Lord to divinely direct your steps this year and forever.

 Bible reading:

 Genesis 24:1-28.

 *PRAYER FOCUS*

Father, I commit my ways to you that you might grant me divine direction in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
