I hope that all Christ followers would say they would do what God asks
them to do. The question may be; how will
we know what He is asking of us? You can begin by reading Scriptures that
will encourage you as you listen for His answers. Consider the following
passages, and what He is asking of you.
Psalm 138:8 The Lord will
vindicate me; your love, Lord, endures forever—do not abandon the works of your hands.
Jeremiah
17:7-8 “But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose
confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the
stream. It does
not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of
drought and never fails to bear fruit.”
John
10:14-15, 27 “I am
the good shepherd; I
know my sheep and
my sheep know me— just
as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the
sheep. My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
Ephesians
4:15-16 “Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the
mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held
together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.
James
1:5-8 If any
of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who
gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not
doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown
and tossed by the wind. That
person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. Such a person is double-minded and
unstable in all they do.
Pray for ears to hear what He will show you. Ask for
wisdom about following up (or not following up) with the things He shows you.
Amen?
