MFM Mountain Top Life Devotional 31 October 2019 By Dr. D.K Olukoya – Do It In God’s Way
TOPIC: Do It In God’s Way
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 22-23; Titus 1
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Exodus 2:11-14
MEMORY VERSE: “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.” – Isaiah 55:8
MESSAGE: Moses, as a child, enjoyed both the loving tender care of his biological mother and the special privileges of being a prince. Nevertheless, these privileges of a royal upbringing did not cut Moses off his roots. However, when Moses became conscious of his responsibility, he went about it in a wrong way. Moses failed to wait for God’s instructions, instead he acted in anger and took the laws into his hand by killing an Egyptian. James 1:20 says, “For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.”
Have you been given any assignment or responsibility (secular, spiritual or general)? Are you doing it or trying to do it in your own way or wisdom? It may backfire! It is always good to do things in God’s own way. God’s way is always the best and secured.
It took Moses 40 years in the wilderness to learn to wait for God’s directions. It is a thing of joy to know that God does not abandon His own. God used this period to prepare Moses for His service.
Beloved, God rewards obedience. He does not reward education, skills, strength and anything that is outside His will or done contrary to His instructions. When He told Noah to build an ark, He gave specifications. The Bible confirms that Noah built according to God’s specification. Similarly, the tabernacle Moses built in the wilderness as well as the temple Solomon built and dedicated to God were built as God specified.
The lesson here is that whatever you have to do in line with destiny fulfilment, go to God and inquire how He would like you to do it. Then make your obedience unquestioning, prompt and complete. Whatever you do (business, career, ministry), do it in God’s way. That is a safe way to enjoy God’s blessing and reward for your effort. Be wise!
