DAY 3 OF 3

Obey God. 

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.” Joshua‬ ‭1:8‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Let His Word guide every aspect of your life. Let His Word lead your heart. Let His Word light your path. Let His Word lead your course and you will have good success. In ‭‭1 Samuel‬ ‭30:8‬ ‭KJV, David sought the Counsel of the Lord‬‬, “And David enquired at the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all.” David decided to seek and obey God before he pursued after his enemies. 

In ‭‭1 Samuel‬ ‭30:8‬ ‭KJV, David asked God a critical question before he moved forward, “Shall I pursue?”  Before you leap — seek and pursue God. Before you move — engage God. Before you apply for that job — engage God. Before you make a critical move — engage God. Choose to engage Christ and dwell upon His Word. Treasure and hide His Word within the borders of your heart. 

When you obey God, He will give you His Instruction and Insight. God wants you to be successful. He wants your family to be successful. He wants you to win. He wants your family to win. God wants to lead you to victory. Follow His Way of doing things and you will be successful.

Let God teach you how to win. Isaiah‬ ‭28:10‬ ‭KJV‬‬ declares, “For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:” Let His principles and precepts lead and guide your footsteps. Follow His Instructions. Let God lead and order your steps. 

Psalm‬ ‭119:133‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ declares, “Establish my steps and direct them by [means of] Your word; let not any iniquity have dominion over me.” Let God order your steps and He will establish your path. Surrender to Christ and He will make your way prosperous.

Today’s Action:

Before you make any major move, career transition or life-altering decision — choose to seek God. Seek His Counsel. In fact, Proverbs‬ ‭3:5-6‬ ‭KJV‬‬ declares, “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” Seek God in all things. Choose to engage God in everything that you say and do. Choose to trust Him with your whole heart and in every aspect of your life.‭‭
