FINDING GOD IN UNEXPECTED JOURNEYS (2)
TIMES OF REFRESHING DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org
DATE: TUESDAY, 14 MAY 2024
So, beloved, in the wilderness of life’s unexpected journeys, we are invited to relinquish our need for control and surrender to the guidance of the Divine. It is here, in the wilderness, that we learn to lean not on our own understanding but to trust in the wisdom of God’s plan. Though the path may be obscure, and the destination unclear, we can take solace in the assurance that God is ever-present, guiding us with a steady hand.
SCRIPTURE: “In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps.” — Proverbs 16:9 (NIV)
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: Unexpected journeys often lead us to encounter God in unexpected places and people. In the strangers we meet along the way, in the kindness of a helping hand, in the beauty of nature that surrounds us, in all these God’s presence is made manifest. These encounters serve as reminders that God works in mysterious ways, tying His divine plan through the seemingly ordinary moments of life. Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: Unexpected journeys unveil divine encounters in the most unexpected corners and faces.
RESPONSIBILITY: So, dearly beloved, when unexpected journeys arise, embrace the moments with an open heart and a receptive spirit. Stay open to the possibility that every encounter holds within it a potential divine appointment.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, as we journey, grant us the courage to embrace the unknown with faith and hope, knowing that You are leading us to where we need to be. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
PROPHETIC WORD: May the Lord help us to trust in His guidance and open our eyes to see His presence in unexpected places. In the name of Jesus, Amen!
BIBLE TEXTS: Proverbs 16:9, Psalm 32:8
