Give Heed To Divine Instruction

Jos. 6:1-20

In an attempt to succeed in life, some people would sacrifice anything for secondary factors like money, personal efforts and possibly human connections. All these will fail. One sure measure that guarantees prosperity and success in life is heeding divine instructions (2 Chro. 20:17). Such instructions convey God’s wisdom, which if followed tenaciously, would help your life and unveil the greatness that is encapsulated in your spirit. When it was time to take Jericho, Joshua did not just sit down. He meditated and waited on the Lord. It wasn’t long afterwards that the Lord appeared to him and gave him supernatural instructions that resulted in the capture of Jericho. If you receive any instruction from God, no matter how outlandish it is, even when it seems difficult, ridiculous or naive, it is for your improvement and promotion. Hence, be motivated to action by the instructions of the spirit in divine wisdom.

Point of Emphasis:   Receive my instruction and not silver, and (my) knowledge rather than choice gold.

Prayer Point:            Lord, let me hear You when You speak.
