Move Forward...
>> Sunday, October 18, 2009
Jer 7:23 But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people; and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you. 24 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward and not forward.
Do we ever feel like all we do is take a few baby steps forward and 20 giant steps backwards? A key to walking with God, hear his voice and obey his voice. To obey it one must first hear it and when we hear and respond we walk supernaturally in the ways. Hearing and Listening lead obedience. Doing much for the Lord because we think is right is not obedience nor instructions followed out. The only obedience counted is followed by hearing His voice for our direction.
Unfortunately many of us do not hear nor listen with their ears. To busy, lots of distractions, no time to sit and wait on a word from the Lord. We walk in our own wisdom and our own self mode which is evil to the Lord and we move backwards, farther from the destiny He has prepared for us.
The Dare! Carve out some time, sit and just listen, hear His voice, follow His lead, go ahead obey and watch yourself move forward into the calling He has for you. He says if we do this, it will be well with us, win win game plan, its worth a try is it not? I dare you to try the Lord out, who knows, you just may find yourself.... Moving Forward!!! Let us not only desire to move forward but make a conscience decision to intentionally do what is right. After all He has our best interest in mind.
