"Remember how for these forty years the LORD, your God, has directed all your journeying in the wilderness, so as to test you by affliction, to know what was in your heart: to keep his commandments, or not." Deuteronomy 8:2
Deuteronomy 8 - Testing and our response. Did God put the Israelites in the wilderness, no the Israelites did it by worshipping a false idol, but God guides their each and every step. Do we recognize God in our lives, can we see Heaven here on earth, can we experience Heaven here on earth. Yes, it begins with listening and obeying God, to give God His rightful place within our heart. Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b.
Sometimes it is hard to understand why things happen but God tells us to trust Him, to put Him first, we are to be His servant and He will amaze you when this happens. We get to chose Heaven or Hell and God works overtime to get our attention, He will not stop until you realize a life with God is Heaven even if bad things happen. The devil is working just as hard to get you to ignore God or blame God, he is out to win and will deceive you with every lie. Put God in your heart and listen, that is what Jesus did, He is true man, our example.
What is God saying to me: I have given you things to carry, Jesus My Son, is on the inside, this is Heaven.
Dear Father, I love being in the boat with You, to have You close to me, all day long. You speak in ways that opens up a new world. Keep us safe on our journey, transform lives with Your gentle touch and open up a new world to each of us. Prayers for all those reaching out to You today, asking for help or guidance, may each recognize that they maybe Your answer to someone's prayer. Prayers for a friend in a test, I thank You Father for healing the pain, for forgiveness in his heart and for a new day that will soon dawn in his life. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
