Several thoughts in scripture this morning. Praying for guidance in the Bible study coming up in February (Heb 5:14), and now coming across scriptures that attest to that kind of sharpening skill that flows from consistent use and practice (Deut 5:32, Psalm 37:4, Isaiah 30:21).
In these scriptures there is all manner of really good advice.
- It's important to go in the direction that you're supposed to. Really important. Duet 5:32
- The direction you are being led is the direction that you're heart is most truly meant for. Psalm 37:4
- The direction you are being led in, you ARE actually being led in. Isaiah 30:21
- As you persist in doing what you're supposed to do you get better and better at it. Heb 5:14
Lord Jesus, I pray to persist in the way that You are leading me (Heb 5:14). Help me to pursue the right Thing, not a thing at all, namely, YOU! (Psalm 37:4). I pray to hear clearly your voice, saying, "this is the way!" (Isaiah 30:21). And I pray against letting myself off the hook, walking in cheap grace (Duet 5:32). These things I pray in Your name.
In Jesus Name,
Amen
Side note I thought worth mentioning. I have a sense that God is leading me to work these 2 things out next to each other:
You will know (Eze 37:13)
&
You know (John 16:30, 1 John 2:20)
