When God speaks to us and guides us, He doesn’t scream at us or push us in the direction in which He wants us to go. No, He leads us, like a gentle shepherd, inviting us to follow Him to greener pastures. He wants us to get to the point where we are so sensitive to His voice that even a little whisper of caution is enough to cause us to ask, “What are You saying here, Lord?”
The minute we sense Him directing us to change what we are doing we should promptly obey Him. If we sense a lack of peace concerning something we are doing, we should stop and seek God for His direction.
Proverbs 3:6 says that if we will acknowledge God in all our ways, He will direct our paths. Acknowledging God simply means having enough respect for Him, enough reverential fear and awe of Him, to care what He thinks of our every move.
A good way to start each day would be to pray for Jesus to gently guide you in the way He would have you go and to help you hear and obey His voice.
PRAYER OF THE DAY: Lord, I care about what You think, and I don’t want to be doing things You don’t want me to do. If I start to do anything today that You don’t want me to do, please show me what it is so I can stop it, turn away from it, and do Your will instead, amen.
