Bible verses about following God’s leading

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-25-16

by

Exodus 4:19 (NKJV) 19 Now the Lord said to Moses in Midian, “Go, return to Egypt; for all the men who sought your life are dead.”

It’s funny how God will sometimes pull us out of something, only to bring us back in at another time.

We have to know that God knows man’s heart, their plans and agendas. Sometimes He may have to do a work in that person or situation and He needs us to be out of the picture for a while, for whatever reason.

It’s not up to us to question Him. It’s up to us to listen and follow, even when we don’t understand it.

Maybe down the road when things have worked their way out, and change has come, the time may come when it is safe for us to go back around.

In this case, Moses’ enemies had all died and it was now safe for him to return.

God knows the heart of man. He knows the agenda that may lie within them and He doesn’t want us to get hurt. He wants us safe and protected.

Remember that He knows better than we do in everything. Let Him direct us in and out of positions, places and situations.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-29-16

by

Proverbs 14:12 (NKJV) 12 There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.

Sometimes our heads have a hard time getting out of the way and letting God lead us.

There are ways that just make sense to us. Our intellect says we should do certain things a certain way. It just seems right.

But when we let God’s spirit talk to us, and we heed His instructions, we end up doing things that just don’t make a lot of sense to our minds.

And if we choose to follow our heads, instead of following God’s leading, it can lead to some disastrous results.

It’s so very important that we follow God’s leading, instead of diving into something head first that will end up harming us.

And when we follow God’s way, instead of ours, we will have peace with the choices that we make, even when it might not seem right to our logical understanding.

Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV) 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-14-15

by

Luke 5:5 (NKJV) 5 But Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.”

Simon explained to Jesus what he had already done, and how he got nothing in his attempt.

But notice that even in Simon’s understanding of what happened, he still followed Jesus’ word and did what Jesus told Him to do. This is key.

We may not always understand why or what Jesus may be asking of us at times. But as long as we let Him lead, we will continue to see Him move, even in our lack of understanding.

Don’t give up on what Jesus is telling us to do today. His words are solid and transforming. You may need a healing today. Your business may need a breakthrough. Your marriage may need restoring. Your spouse may need salvation. Your children may need healing, or you may need deliverance from addictions.

If Simon said, “I already did what You are asking me to do last night, it’s a waste of my time”, and he did not heed the voice of Jesus and act upon it, he would have missed out on a huge blessing.

Luke 5:6 (NKJV) 6 And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking.

We are believing that as you take that step of faith, and you listen and do what Jesus is speaking to your heart today, your blessing will come.

Do what Simon did, pushing aside his own understanding of what he had already experienced and listening to what Jesus was saying.

Bible Verse of The Day – 10-13-15

by

Proverbs 19:20-21 (NKJV) 20 Listen to counsel and receive instruction, That you may be wise in your latter days. 21 There are many plans in a man’s heart, Nevertheless the Lord’s counsel—that will stand.

We may have thoughts and ideas of our own as to what we need to do at certain times. But we need to always remember to pray about it and ask God to confirm those ideas, making sure it is His will and plan for us.

Just because some things look, feel and sound good doesn’t necessarily mean it’s God’s plan.

Know that at times we may wrestle with the things that God would have us to do. It may not always be what we want to be doing, or the way we would like to be doing it.

This is normal, but if we submit to the Spirit, we will truly walk in His will for us and be blessed!

Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-8-15

by

Hebrews 3:15 (NKJV) 15 while it is said: “Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”

There can be times when we know exactly what God wants us to do, but because it’s not what we want or we don’t like the timing He has for us, we can tend to ignore Him.

Ignoring what God is speaking to our hearts is just the same as rebellion. We are simply saying “we hear you God, but we really don’t want to go there or down that route. We don’t like Your plan.”

We have all been here at one time or another.

To get to the point of listening to God and hearing His voice takes being aware that He is with us at all times. He doesn’t have to leave our side to go help someone else, or leave someone else to come and help us.

So, if we are lost, He will help us find our place. He is Omnipresent, meaning He is everywhere at the same time. He is aware of EVERYTHING.

He has good plans for us.

Jeremiah 29:11 (NKJV) 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

It’s never too late to begin to listen to God. He has hope and a future for us. Hear His voice today.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-19-14

by

Psalm 37:23 (NKJV) 23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way.

Did you know that God delights in us?

He does!

The verse above shows us that He delights in our way, as we follow the steps he has set our feet on.

Despite what some people might teach or think, it doesn’t take a lot to please God. He simply wants us to walk in the steps He has ordered for us.

If we do this, we are pleasing Him.

It’s not nearly as complicated as we sometimes make it.

Bible Verse of The Day – 10-11-14

by

Proverbs 4:26 (NKJV) 26 Ponder the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established.

God has a path for each of us. As we follow Him, He establishes that path and teaches us how to walk on it.

The closer we get to God, the more clearly we can see that path. And as we see that path more clearly, we enjoy walking on it more and more.

Sometimes we tend to take our eyes off the path that God has set before us and we start looking at other people and the path that they are on. And before we know it, we’re trying to walk on their path instead of our own.

This is very detrimental to our walk with God because as we follow someone else’s path, we actually get further from God instead of closer to Him.

So when God sets your feet on a path, stick to it! Don’t waste your time and energy trying to walk on someone else’s path or follow their call. It won’t get us anywhere if we do this.

God knows us better than we know ourselves, so when He places us on our path, it’s because He knows what’s best for us and what He wants for us.
