Day 6 - Set Your Day Straight
When we listen and follow the inward witness, we can get God’s supernatural help in even the smallest daily details. He can make things fall into place so much better than you or I ever could.
I remember one time when I had about a hundred things on my to-do list. I was stressed. So stressed, in fact, that I was planning to skip my morning devotions because I didn’t have time for them. But I felt the Holy Spirit gently prompt me, “Karen, if you’ll put Me first, I can set your day straight.” So I went ahead and read my Bible and prayed before I headed out for the day.
My first stop was the local superstore, where I had to pick up some oil for a hinge. Now, my apologies if you work at a store like that, but I have sort of a love-hate relationship with them. For one thing, they’re just so huge. I have to walk for miles and miles looking for things, and that just eats up time. For another thing, there are sixteen checkout stands but only two are ever open. So the lines are long, and the checkers seem to move in slow motion.
I wasn’t sure where the hinge oil might be in the store, and I was prepared for a long walk and then a long wait at the checkout line. But! I had that promise from the Holy Spirit: “If you’ll put Me first, I can set your day straight.”
And do you know what happened? I walked into the store and right there, on the endcap of the first aisle I came to, was the oil! I grabbed it and headed for the checkout stand where, lo and behold, no people were in line and the nice checker was standing out front motioning me toward her. I was in and out of that store in less than five minutes. Talk about a miracle! I had put God first, and He supernaturally helped set my day straight.
That might seem like a minor miracle to you, but it was thrilling to me. Imagine if God ordered every hour of every day like that for us. When we listen for His promptings and follow the inward witness, we can see minor miracles and major ones too!
