DIVINE GUIDANCE 1
Dr. J.E Akpami
Psalms 23:1-6
Reasons why you need to know God's will:
YOU ARE NOT QUALIFIED TO LEAD YOUR
SELF
There are many things you can do all alone by
yourself. But this is ONE thing you are not qualified
to do. In a world controlled by unseen forces and
ruled by deception, your senses are grossly
handicapped. How helpful are your good eyes in
pitch darkness? Proverbs 16:25 says, "There is a way
that SEEMS right to a man..."
Realize that the way only seems right. Your natural
judgment Okays it; but it is actually a trap laid by
death, it is an invitation to disaster. It takes humility
for a man to say: "This one pass my power o!" It is
suicidal asking an experienced motor driver to fly an
aeroplane.
THE SAFEST PLACE TO BE ON EARTH IS IN
THE CENTRE OF GOD'S WILL
Psalm 23:1 (AMP) says, “THE LORD is my Shepherd
[to feed, guide, and SHIELD ME], I shall not lack”.
Your protection is guaranteed THERE. Your
blessing is guaranteed THERE. Jesus describes His
disciples as 'sheep in the midst of wolves'; the chance
of surviving without a Shepherd is zero.
Prayer:
O Lord, in You I put my trust because You are the
pillar that holds my life.
