God watches us and how we handle things that He has given to us. Are we following His direction or trying to do things ourselves, in our own way?<\/p>\n
Some may think that after they have entered into a position or have gotten what they wanted from God, they are all set and they leave God on the sidelines and do the rest themselves.<\/p>\n
Well, that was not the case for Saul and it is not the case for us. If God opens a door for us and gets us into a place or raises us up into a position, or calls us to do something for Him, we should let Him lead even after we have received what it is that we were seeking.<\/p>\n
We can’t let ourselves get prideful in thinking that we are the only one for that position. There are others who can do it. God may have preferred<\/em> us for it but if we don’t follow directions, He may have to step in and change it up.<\/p>\n God knows our hearts, thoughts and motives. Let us keep them pure today and follow Him.<\/p>\n Together, in Him, we will get the job done!<\/p>\n Pastor Curt & Pastor Ellie<\/p>\n Seven Seas Ministries 401-377-5400<\/p>\n If you know someone who will enjoy this or be encouraged by it, please feel free to share it with them!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" (1 Sam 15:28 NKJV)\u00a0 So Samuel said to him, “The LORD has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today, and has given it to a neighbor of yours, who is better than you.
