I did not know the routes so I had to drive using a GPS navigator. But that fateful, morning there was road construction going on and the GPS had not updated itself. It did not know that there was a roadblock so it took me right to it. And I began to wonder how I will get to church; of course the GPS was recalculating, and I did not want to get to church late. I wasn\u2019t preaching, in fact they don\u2019t even know me in the church. <!--more-->They don\u2019t need to know me in the church for me to come early to church. When you come to church, who are you coming to meet? It is God! So why would you come late to church? So I turned to God for help and the Holy Spirit pointed to a car in front of me and asked me to follow the car. And just then, the car pulled out and was going. I had to decide, am I going to be foolish and follow a car I don\u2019t know? What if he calls the police? Well I pulled out, followed the car, and switched off the GPS. The car navigated through all sorts of nooks and crannies that I did not know and probably the GPS didn\u2019t know. Then the car veered off, I looked up and there was the church I was going to, right in front of me. And I arrived on time. I know some of you would not believe this but it is ok. I will share it anyway for those who would believe. Now for you, you may just want to bother God with the big things. I\u2019m saying if you wait for the big things, you will be under too much pressure. That is not when to hear God. Hear God in the seemingly little things. You want to eat and God tells you not to eat yet. What do you do? That will determine if God will give you more complicated instructions in time to come.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Principle #4 is the principle of <i>obedience<\/i>. The principle of obedience simply states you cannot go beyond your level of obedience. You will not hear God more than your last obedience. If you get divine direction and you don\u2019t obey, what is the value of the direction? God has said \u2018do A\u2019. Do \u2018A\u2019 and watch what He will do. After all, He is God.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><b>Prayer<\/b>: Holy Spirit, I ask for the wisdom to seek Your counsel and to obey it, in Jesus Name.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2018So she did as she was told.
