Goodseed Daily Devotional 22nd December 2024
TOPIC: THE BLESSING OF SEEKING GOD'S DIRECTION
SCRIPTURE: Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake. LUKE
5:4, 6. It has been confirmed that hearing God is critical to life and destiny fulfillment. Hearing God is a vital key to maximizing a new season.
It is very important to find out from God to know what He wants you to do in this season. This is because except the Lord builds a house, the laborers labour in vain (Psalm 127:1). God is committed to fulfilling what He reveals to you.
This is one reason why it is necessary to find out from God, and to commit your ways to Him in this season.
Now, what is the blessing of seeking God's direction ?
1) Termination of Frustration. Divine direction terminates frustrations. All the frustrations programmed into the year by the devil for you can be terminated as you seek God's direction.
Having laboured all night and caught nothing, Peter was frustrated. He started washing his nets to go home, then Jesus brought divine direction, and his frustration was terminated (Luke 5).
ii. Abundance of Provision To access divine provisions, you must seek divine direction. Psalm 23 reveals that when God gives you direction or instruction, He leads you into abundance and plentifulness. For instance, in Luke 5:4-5, Peter caught plenty fishes because he followed divine direction.
ill. The exceeding of Expectations. When you receive and obey divine direction, your expectations can be exceeded. Peter was trying to get just a handful of fishes, but when he listened to and followed divine instruction, what he saw was beyond what he bargained for. He had to call others to assist him with the breakthrough.
Beloved, I decree that in this season of celebration, your expectations shall be exceeded in Jesus' Name.
By all means, pay attention to hearing the Voice of God.
Diligently obey Divine Directions so you can experience God's Blessings in every area of your life.
PRAYER: Lord, I receive the discipline and grace to incline my ears to You. Open my ears to hear You clearly, Lord, in Jesus' Name.
