God Provides

May 13, 2013

Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.
–John 13:13

He (the Spirit) will never lead you contrary to the Word of God. I hear people saying, “The Lord led me to do this. . . . The Lord told me thus and so . . . ” I am always a little suspicious unless what the Lord has said is in keeping with His Word. God never directs us to do anything contrary to His Word. The prophet Samuel once said, “Obedience is better than sacrifice.” The Scripture teaches, “He that willeth to do His will shall know the doctrine.” When you find yourself up a blind alley, not knowing which way to turn, if you are willing to do His will, He will reveal Himself. He conceals His will only from those who, before they consent to do His bidding, seek to know what He is going to say. Be an obedient Christian. Remember that “where God guides, He provides. Where He leads, He supplies all needs!”

Prayer for the day

Let me be acutely attuned to Your Word, so that each decision I have to make will be in Your will, almighty God

Generally speaking God's will for everyone can be found in his word. If you think God is leading you in a specific direction and need confirmation . Pray and read to make certain it lines up with scripture. If not then its not his will.

God's Word says that, "God WILL supply all ofour needs according to His Riches in Glory."As Children of God, we must believe this, as itis the truth.

Going to pray for Rev Graham now, did not know he was ill, but he has been on my heart and mind recently as I've been thinking about how the Lord has used him in all nations to preach the good news, the Gospel. I see him as a prophet to all the nations, our last prophet perhaps. Lord, strengthen your servant Billy Graham, continue Your ministry in and through him I pray in Jesus' name. Amen
