Devotional
The joy of living can never be so fulfilling if access to certain dimensions and necessity of life remains unknown. And when the solution of a problem is not known, the answers to it are persistently delayed and overdue. So, we continue to explore proven biblical strategies for engaging the right keys to achieve our purpose in life.
Key Scripture
If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good things of the land;Isaiah 1:19 NIV
Refreshing for the Day
Another definite and obvious strategy for engaging the right keys to achieve our purpose in life is being obedience to God’s instruction. Every challenge has its anti-detonating code, that’s when triggered would prevent its escalation. And obedience and submission to such instructions gives us guaranteed access to results; but non-compliance with them end up in the calamity.
Such was the account of Moses in Numbers 20:1-12. There was no water for the people of Israel to drink at Kadesh, so they rebelled against Moses and Aaron. The Lord had told Moses to speak to the rock; however, Moses struck the rock, not once, but twice. For this reason, he was forbidden to enter the Promised Land. Beloved, the key message here is, you don’t assume a solution to your problem, you can only embrace and follow the given instructions to solve the problem. Though Moses got results, but it was never a good outcome for him. Stay Refreshed!
Note This
Every problem we face in life has detailed instructions to its solution contained in the Scripture. But until we find and submit to the instructions, denial is predictable.
Responsibility
So, we must make concerted efforts to obey every of God’s instructions concerning our lives.
