How To Direct Your Life

From: Boyd Bailey Ministries

2 Corinthians 4:18 “So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”

Trust in God is like being an instrument rated pilot who flies through the night. The flickering lights that illumine the ground can be misleading. It is the accuracy of the pilot’s instrument panel that can be trusted.

So are the instruments of prayer, God’s word and wise counsel. God uses these tools to provide you the coordinates on how to direct your life. Do not be in a hurry. Good things happen to those who wait on God. He gives you His coordinates for your life as you are ready to receive them. Whether they come one at a time or all at once, remain patient.

Refrain from moving forward until you know exactly the longitude and latitude of God’s will. The last thing you want to do is land prematurely or even worse crash and burn. Trust in God. He is trustworthy. You cannot see Him, but you can see His evidences all around you.

Trust can be allusive. One day you rest in Him with no problem. The next day you wrestle with Him over your problems. Trust means you moment-by-moment give to God everything, especially those things out of your control. Trust in the unseen rather than the seen and then the seen becomes all the more beautiful and useful for God’s purposes.
