Jesus, Take the Wheel
Psalm 62:8
People trust God all the time.
God instructed Gideon to form an army to fight the Midianites. Initially there were 32,000 men to fight, but in the end, after a few tests, only 300 men were selected to fight in the battle together with Gideon. Gideon didn’t understand how God was going to help them win with only 300 men BUT he still obeyed God.
Gideon and his men were armed with only torches, trumpets and empty jars. Gideon broke his jar and blew his trumpet and his men followed. The Midianites, not knowing what was happening, panicked and started to kill one another. Israel won just by breaking their jars, blowing trumpets and shouting. This was possible because God was the One who took the wheel of the battle.
Let God take over the wheel of your life. There are many things that are hard for you to understand. But like Gideon, just trust and obey God. When God takes the wheel of your life, even when going through the difficult paths, you can be assured that you are safe.
Prayer
Jesus, You are the Ruler over all things. Please help me to obey You more. Take the wheel of my life. Amen.
