DO YOU TRUST HOLY SPIRIT AS MUCH AS GPS?

 

Guidance is the main issue of life.

From our earliest memories, someone is trying to tell us where to go and what to do. Obviously, in a well-structured home that God placed you in, your mother and father are the first instructors. They tell me that young children learn what they will do 95% of the time in the first five years as they grow older. They also say that training happens at their mother's knee.

In the early Jewish tradition, the young sons were trained by their mother until they were seven, and then their father took over to teach them a trade they would do for life.

So guidance is a big deal in the life of the believer, you, and those who have given themselves to Jesus Christ. Yet, in all of the years I have pastored, the most repetitive question I got is," What do you think God has in store for me." Or a variation of the same question concerning life's journey.

Learning to hear the voice of Holy Spirit, and trusting to be obedient to what you hear is a muscle you exercise until it strengthens. It's similar to the young child who is learning to walk. Getting up and running would be very unusual for that young child.

So it is in learning to listen to Holy Spirit's direction with the same confidence you have in your GPS on your precious iPhone.

To be clear, I have been led astray several times by GPS but never by the Holy Spirit. There have been times when my hearing could have been better when he spoke, but he never led me down a dead-end pathway.

Sometime today, take time to meditate upon Psalms, the 23rd chapter, and let God reassure you that he will lead you beside still Waters and pathways that are good for you.
