The Light Daily Devotional – Be Willing to Be Instructed
Focus: Be Willing to Be Instructed
WORD FOR TODAY
Your future in God is not a product of guesswork; it is the result of divine instruction followed with faithful obedience!
Scriptural Reference
“I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.” — Psalm 32:8 (NKJV)
Every man created by God has a divine blueprint; a unique path, assignment, and destiny. But no man can walk in that destiny without divine instruction. God is not only the Creator; He is also the Instructor. He is committed to guiding those who are willing to obey. “God does not lead the stubborn; He leads the surrendered.”
To serve God faithfully and do His work according to His plan and specification, you must be instructed by Him. Anything done outside divine instruction, even if it looks spiritual, becomes the work of the flesh. The difference between God’s will and good intentions is instruction (Proverbs 14:12).
Your alignment with divine purpose depends on how well you hear, receive, and follow God’s instructions. Are you making decisions based on pressure or divine instruction? Are you entering relationships, careers, or ministries God never told you to pursue? Are you running ahead of God or walking in step with Him?
The instructions of God are not mere suggestions; they are the map to your destiny. What He tells you is what takes you to where He wants you to be, and gives you the life He ordained for you (Proverbs 3:5-6). God’s eye is on those who allow themselves to be guided. If you want His presence, His power, and His provision; you must also embrace His instruction. God is not obligated to bless what He did not instruct. If you want His results, you must follow His directions.
Question for Meditation: Am I acting based on divine instruction or personal ambition? Have I truly sought the Lord’s direction concerning my work, ministry, family, or decisions? When God instructs, do I delay, doubt, or obey?
Prayer: Father, thank You for being a loving Instructor. Open my heart to hear You clearly. Deliver me from self-will and pride. Teach me to follow Your lead and obey Your Word. Let my life align with Your divine purpose. Instruct me, teach me, guide me, and watch over me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Main Emphasis: The instruction of God is the foundation of divine direction. Don’t just work for God; walk with God. Let Him lead. Let Him instruct.
May you be sensitive to His voice, obedient to His will, and faithful in your journey. Amen.
