A Way In The Wilderness預覽

A Choice To Obey Some years later, Abram, now known as Abraham, had a son named Isaac. There was now another bad famine in the land. This time, Isaac went to Abimelek, the king of the Philistines in Gerar. After that he must have thought of going down to Egypt just as his father did. But the LORD appeared to Isaac and said, “Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land where I tell you to live. Stay in this land for a while, and I will be with you and will bless you.” The instructions were clear. The answer to Isaac’s situation was not in Egypt, but in God Himself. Had the LORD not stopped him, Isaac would have strayed into the wilderness. Because Isaac listened and obeyed, the hand and the blessings of God were upon him. Sometimes God gives us clear instructions and stops us from doing things that are not according to His will. But do we really listen attentively and obey Him? Today, learn to shift your focus towards Him and incline your ears to what He is telling you to do. * Reflect on the moments where you disobeyed God. What happened as a result of that disobedience? * How would you want to live differently from now on? Obedience is a choice. You will never go wrong obeying God.
