Lead Me

Verse

Isaiah 48:17
Thus saith Jehovah, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:I am Jehovah thy God, who teacheth thee to profit, who leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.

Message

You know, it's so easy to think that our lives are led by God just by the mere fact that we go to church. It's easy to think that we are in His will because we can quote a myriad bible verses over the top of our heads. It's really common these days to hear people say "I am fine by the Grace of God", even when they are being oppressed by the devil. It's really common to see people endure hardship on a pathway that has not been carved out for them by God.

As we can see in the above verse, it is God who teaches us to profit by leading us to make strategic choices in life as a part of our God-given purpose. It is only up to us to submit our lives completely to Him. God wants to teach us and lead us; to place us in His Kingdom far above principalities, powers and all the rulers of darkness; to give us a purpose worth living and dying for. The question is: are we willing to drop our fishing nets to follow Him today? Like Abraham, God only reveals to us the bigger picture and will provide us with all the resources we need for His purpose, if and only if we totally put our trust in Him.

"Now Jehovah said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto the land that I will show thee: and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and be thou a blessing; and I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse:and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed. So Abram went, as Jehovah had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him:and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran"

Amen
