Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

These verses have become my \u201cwords to live by\u201d. Every day it becomes clearer and clearer to me what this really means.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It\u2019s all part of the faith walk, that path that God puts you on that takes you somewhere you\u2019ve never been and to a destination you have no idea about. You will only know that you have reached your destination when God says, \u201cyou\u2019re there\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Without the Holy Spirit, this walk will mess with your head. It will have you questioning yourself and the choices you make. It will have you asking yourself if what you chose was God or your emotions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But then God speaks and tells you that it\u2019s all OK. You\u2019re not off. You\u2019re not crazy, and you\u2019re not weird. You\u2019re on the right track.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As God has shown me this more and more, I have begun to notice it in action in the lives of people in the Bible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Joseph, who became the \u201cfather\u201d of Jesus, probably wrestled with this as Mary told him that she was pregnant, but still a virgin. And then again when God gave him a dream and told Him to flee to Egypt to protect his newborn Son from Herod.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Abraham, the \u201cfather of many nations\u201d, dealt with this when he was told by God to leave and go \u201cto a place I will show you\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Genesis 12:1 (NKJV) 12 Now the Lord had said to Abram: \u201cGet out of your country, From your family And from your father\u2019s house, To a land that I will show you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Think about that. He had to leave his country, his family and his father\u2019s house. But he did so not even knowing where he was supposed to end up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

And then he was promised a son when he was 100 years old. Now that\u2019s a mind bender right there.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But Abraham obeyed, and God was faithful to keep His promises.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

There\u2019s something we need to be clear about; God didn\u2019t stop doing these kinds of things when the people in the Bible died. He still does them today in the lives of people like you and me.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We just have to be alert and discerning to hear Him and then follow His leading.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Yes, it\u2019s odd at first. Yes, it\u2019s scary sometimes. And yes, people might think you\u2019re crazy if you tell them about it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But that doesn\u2019t make it any less real. And it doesn\u2019t make God any less faithful.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He still does these things! He still shows us and tells us things that require His spirit for us to get understanding and then make the right moves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

God still speaks. Are we listening?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
