Good Morning!! I sometimes wonder if our Heavenly Father looks at us with a broken heart, and asks; "Why are they so slow to learn and practice My Truth?" In order to learn the ways of God, we have to know the Truth of God. Saturating our lives with Scripture is absolutely essential, to finding and doing the Will of God.The Bible is the road map, the blue print and the ultimate plan for our journey, down God's true path.
Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is.—Ephesians 5:15-17 (NIV)
As
we begin to walk in the right direction we must not only have the right
directions for today,...we must go back and explore those paths of
yesterday that once led us in the wrong direction. Understanding past wrong choices, can make the right choices, much easier to make. Some of those old paths are to familiar and comfortable, and hard to resist. But remembering where they lead us, can keep us from following them again. A friendship may have to be ended. A behavior pattern may have to be changed.
A habit may have to be eliminated. If it leads to sin,...if it makes
it easier to sin,...if it entices or tempts you to sin,...run from it now! Don’t go around that same old mountain of wrong choices again. Learn the lesson, choose obedience, and "keep it moving".
A learned truth, should be an applied truth. The truth won't change,...we must change, in response to the truth!
Father God, we are so tired of going around the same old mountains of defeat and failure, in our lives. We are afraid of being lost and without direction. Right now, we choose Your ways,...lead us in them. Help us to see and turn from anyone or anything, that would keep us from learning and then obeying Your truth. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
"Develop a more Christ-centered, God pleasing life starting today."
