‘As soon as you begin to live the life of faith in God,
fascinating and physically gratifying possibilities will open up before you.
These things are yours by right, but if you are living the life of faith you
will exercise your right to waive your rights, and let God make your choice for
you. God sometimes allows you to get
into a place of testing where your own welfare would be the appropriate thing
to consider, if you were not living the life of faith. But if you are, you
will joyfully waive your right and allow God to make your choice for you. This
is the discipline God uses to transform the natural into the spiritual through
obedience to His voice.’ CHAMBERS
Sometimes God will lead us to places that
seem to be contrary to what is ‘best’ for us.
It is a place that requires us to exercise faith in Him. By human standards, it does not make sense
for us to go there. When we are living a
life of faith, we must be careful about calling things foolish …. But the natural man does not receive the things of the
Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because
they are spiritually discerned. (1 Corinthians 2:14)
Discerning what is of
God and what is not requires us to be spiritually aware of what is happening around
us. We must listen for the Spirit to say
“This is the way, walk in it.” And then we must walk in it … Hebrews 11:1 “Faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen.”
