Do not wait
for a feeling of devotion or unction to move forward in obedience. God has made Himself perfectly clear in His Word, and there is no reason to hesitate because of a lack of feeling. Is there an evident need? Is there a call that demands obedient response? Is there a gap that must be filled? We obey because we have the Word. We do not wait for the same feeling one has when anticipating a stimulating encounter or reward. We simply move forward because there is a need and because He has made the way clear as an answer to prayer. Soldier, learn to be quiet and restrain from expressing the things that are not worthy of a Soldier of the Cross. Yours is a direct commission, and nothing is a haphazard circumstance. You are not a victim, and the person who feels like a thorn in your flesh will be a glorious answer to prayer if you will live in spontaneous response and sensitivity to the Holy Spirit. Stop imagining how things will be. Move according to the Word, and He will open the way! |
