The divine guidance

in #steemchurch6 years ago

A warm greetings to you Brethren....
If you will agree with me that life is a beautiful place and still I can tell you that as cool as life appears to us so as well life is showing some people the other side and some are enjoying the beauty of life until they decided to take a steep that looks good to them and ended up seeing the red side of life.

So many times, many believe in their own knowledge and ignore the divine guidance. What level of experience must you have gotten that is greater than that of the Heavenly Angels who has been to existence before the creation of man and not to talk of God.
A way that seems right to you, a way that pleaseth you, a step that looks so cool, if taken without the direction of God is 100% risky.

Let see the case of Samson and how he ended in the red side of life with just a step.

Judges 13:5 [KJV]

[5] For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no rasor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.

God has designed a better life ahead of Samson, He gave him the best parents that suits him, He has not yet been conceived but God knew everything and designed his life.

When you read far further to verse 24 of same chapter 13.

And the woman bare a son, and called his name Samson: and the child grew, and the LORD blessed him.
[KJV]

The Lord bless Samson, the Lord gave him necessary things needed as a young man, it was cool and peaceful until He left the top place he was leaving one day.

Judges 14: 1-2 [KJV]

[1] And Samson went down to Timnath, and saw a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines.
[2] And he came up, and told his father and his mother, and said, I have seen a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines: now therefore get her for me to wife.

He left the top place and went down to Timnath where He saw another way that pleaseth him. To him, she was the best to him

Proverbs 14:12 [KJV]

[12] There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

The way that Samson chooses to follow, the step he took seems to be right to him because it pleases him.

God designed a better life for us from the beginning, but many ended up in the knot of life because they took the wrong step when they thought it was right.
Jesus is the way, the best path to follow, Jesus is the truth that can not deceive if you seek him and this same Jesus is the light that can lead your moves.
Remember a way that seems right to you, a way that pleaseth you, a step that looks so cool, if taken without the direction of God is 100% risky.

Do not rely on your knowledge, nor your experience but seek the direction of God. Plead for divine guidance and you shall not regret your moves.

Together, let meet at the top.
