Meditate On
For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for
His good pleasure.
Philippians 2:13
Do What
He Puts On Your Heart
God has made it so easy for us in the new covenant to be
directed by His wisdom and love. We no longer have to run to prophets to find
out His will for us. He Himself leads us! For those of you who want to serve
the Lord, but don’t know where to start, just ask yourself what is in your
heart. If you have a desire to work among children, then do so. As a new
covenant believer, that’s how your Father leads you. He puts His laws in your
mind and writes them on your heart!
Perhaps you feel a prompting to bless someone
financially, even though the person looks prosperous. Follow that prompting
because today, God speaks to you directly and He has made it easy for you to
know His will through His promptings in your heart. We all know how looks can
be deceiving. For example, many con artists believe that church folks are
gullible. Therefore, they dress down with a well-rehearsed sob story so as to
move you to give to them. On the other hand, there are noble people who dress
up on Sundays to honor the occasion, but they may be in dire straits
financially. Hence, we need to follow the promptings of our hearts and not the
sight of our eyes.
So when you feel a desire to do something good for
someone, do it, knowing that you have a brand-new heart that hears God, and
that it is God who works in you both the willingness and the ability to do it!
