God Allows Us The Opportunity To Make Mid-Course Corrections In Our Lives ... Are Your Hearkening To The Voice Of His Word and Doing What He Says?

Are you hearkening to the Word of God?   God’s Word speaks, we just have to listen to what He is saying through His Word with the intent to obey.   To listen is one thing but to listen and obey is another.   We have to learn how to listen and how to obey.   A child can hear what you are saying and continue to do what it is that you are telling him or her not to do or they can hear what you are saying and make the necessary corrections to do what you are telling them to do.    What are you doing when God gives you direction?   Are you making the necessary mid-course corrections and walking in obedience or are choosing to continue to obey your flesh and what it is telling and desiring for you to do?   

Life is not easy and life is filled with choices.   We choose each day what we will and will not do.   We choose to obey or we choose to disobey.   Sin doesn’t just happen.   We choose to walk in and live in sin.    The question is, what will we do with the knowledge that God gives.    Will we choose to walk in obedience or will we choose to disobey what God has told us and is telling us to do?

Wanting God to shield you, protect you, and provide for you is one thing but walking in a way that is pleasing to Him will cause Him to want to shield you, protect you, and provide for you.   God said in His Word that if we are willing and obedient, we SHALL eat the good of the land.    

So make sure you are listening to what God is telling you to do with the intention of obeying Him.    Seek His will through His Word and seek to do what He has already told you to do.   None of us are perfect in what we do but we have to believe God and trust that God will do what He said if we walk the way He tells us to walk.   Remember, God is not a man and He does not lie.   God will honor His promises in your life if you honor Him with your life.    

SCRIPTURE MEDITATION

Luke 6:46 - And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

Romans 6:16 - Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
