LET GOD OUT OF YOUR BOX

TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org

DATE: FRIDAY 4 JUNE 2021

We all have goals that we’re believing for and situations we want to see turn around; but too often we put God in a box and tell Him what to do, how to do it, when to do it, and who to use to do it. But we’re too quick to forget that God’s ways are not our ways.

SCRIPTURE: “My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the LORD. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine”. (Isaiah 55:8) NLT

REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: God is unconventional, He doesn’t always do things the rational way.

The major challenge we have is that, we have a preconceived way we always want God to do our thing, our minds and everything about us are already patterned to that way. Even when God wants to do things in His own way, we box Him and thus limit Him. Who could believe that God would use Rahab the prostitute to save the people of Israel (Joshua 6:25), and use a donkey to speak to the prophet (Numbers 22:28)?

Beloved, God is God. He can do whatever He wants to do, He can do it with whosoever He wants, He can do it at any time He wants. So, don’t put him in a box and miss your miracle. Stay open to Him and His ways!

NOTE THIS: God is unconventional, He doesn’t always do things the rational way.

RESPONSIBILITY: Always trust in the Lord and stay open to His leadings.

PRAYER: O LORD, give me the grace to stay open to Your ways and leadings, in the name of Jesus’ Amen! (Go ahead and continue to pray)

PROPHETIC WORD: As you stay open to the ways of God, may He satisfy the longings of your heart, in the name of Jesus, Amen.

BIBLE TEXTS: Isaiah 55:8, Josh 6:25, Num 22:28
