For taking your time to study remain blessed.
TOPIC: SEEK DIVINE DIRECTION
SEPTEMBER Wednesday 5th
TEXT: Genesis 26:1-3, 12-14
KEY VERSE: Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life. Proverbs 4: 13
Life is a maze, a complex network. Things are not always exactly as they appear or turn out the way you think. That is why you need divine direction. Direction precedes miracle and breakthrough. Proverbs 14:12, “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Jesus is the Way, the only Person that can show you the right way to go. Jesus is the Truth, the only One that cannot deceive or lead you astray. Jesus is the Life, the only One that can give you the fullness of life. Put your trust in Him and you will not end up in the wrong destination in life. Proverbs 3:5-6, “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” If you travel to a strange land, you ask the local people you meet on the way for direction otherwise you will miss your way. They are able to help because they have lived in the environment for some time and are familiar with its geography. It is the same with navigating life. Only the Giver of life can navigate it and give direction that will lead you to your final destination. He is the One that can tell you what tomorrow holds in stock for you. He is the One that can tell you whether the smooth road you are walking now will lead to a dead end, which is not good for you. He is the One that can tell you to endure a little more because your breakthrough is just around the corner.
In today’s devotional text, we see how through divine direction Isaac stayed back in famine-ravaged land of Gerar to reap bountiful harvest. It was a miracle preceded by direction. He had decided to relocate to Egypt in order to escape the famine in the land. This appeared to be the wisest thing to do but God said, “No, in this land of famine I will bless you exceedingly.” He obeyed and the result was beyond all expectations. Gideon followed divine direction and used just 300 soldiers to defeat the mighty army of Midian. Joshua followed divine direction and the wall of Jericho collapsed without shooting an arrow. Moses followed divine direction and the Red Sea gave way. Peter followed divine direction and experienced a boat-sinking harvest of fish. Follow divine direction today and enter into your breakthrough.
Thought for the day: Make Jesus the compass of your life and you will never miss the way.
Song for the day: Jesus the way, the Truth and The Life whosoever cometh to Him shall…
Bible reading for the day: Proverbs 7-8; 1 Corinthians 14:21-40.
