Supernatural Instructions

Supernatural Instructions

“Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it…”

(Romans 12:2 MSG).

One of the ways of training your human spirit is educating him to respond to God at once; learning to respond quickly to His instructions. A lot of the problems many of God’s children get themselves into would be averted if only they respond quickly to the Holy Spirit.

          Imagine a guy driving himself on a journey, and somehow begins to feel sleepy, then the Spirit says to him, “get a convenient place to stop and rest awhile.” He ignores that voice and continues in his journey. Then before he knows it, he veers off the road or crashes into a ditch somewhere. Unfortunately, many have lost their lives like that because they didn’t respond to God’s Spirit when He tried to warn them.

Sometimes you may even find yourself in fellowship with certain people the Spirit of God doesn’t want you to make friends with, and then He tells you to distance yourself from them. Obey immediately. Consciously train yourself to respond quickly to His voice. Don’t let Him have to repeat instructions to you over and over again. Remember, God’s guidance in our lives doesn’t have to be spectacular to be supernatural. If it’s from the Holy Spirit, it’s supernatural and can be trusted. 

If you train yourself now to respond to Him like this, you’ll be able to hear Him in the time of crisis because your spirit would have been trained to recognize His voice.

Prayer

Dear Father,

I thank you for the opportunity I have to be trained by your Spirit. I’ve learnt today the importance of responding quickly to your instructions and counsel, therefore, not only do I wholly follow them, I respond to them very quickly

in the Name of Jesus. Amen.
