WEEK 18: Day 3
LEAVING POWER
The Lord our God said to us in Horeb, ‘You have stayed long enough at this mountain. Turn and take your journey, and go to the hill country of the Amorites…See, I have set the land before you. Go in and take possession…” Deteronomy 1:6-8
In our journey of obedience, there is a time even to leave. This stage for me requires as much discernment as staying because it is no obedience if you are holding on to an old when the One leading you has provided a new.
Proverbs 3:5–6
Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.
There are no stage or time where your understanding is sufficient in itself. To be accurate in our bearings, you have to be in sync, in tune with the ways of the Spirit.
James 1:5
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.
The God who gifts all a new day without preference is the One who gives the wisdom to live it. Living it right however requires the extra mile of asking.
Romans 12:2
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
No, you can't determine your direction by the direction the world takes or the gauge of the worlds opinion or even by comparison to another, but, by the wisdom of God.
Do you know sometimes, you decide to stay a course not because of obedience but because of pride or fear?
Questions like 'what would people say?' 'What would they think of my reputation?' 'Who would reap all my benefits after all i have done?' 'How do i start anew?' 'Do i start from the scratch again?' ...
Deuteronomy 32:28-29
“For they are a nation void of counsel, and there is no understanding in them. If they were wise, they would understand this; they would discern their latter end!
In this walk of obedience, the power to leave is hinged on wisdom, understanding and discernment.
Is this easy? Definitely not! Because sometimes, your only reasonable reason is 'it is just time to leave!' How it may be sensed can be controlled but not necessarily determined.
I pray you follow Him in leaving phases behind regardless of how it may be perceived, trusting Him fully on the revelation of your latter end in Jesus name, amen.
