Ps 103:4
Who
redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and
tender mercies;
One of our
Lord’s goals in assuming leadership of our lives is to redeem our lives from
destruction. We must remember this
whenever we sense a call from Him to surrender something or repent from some
pattern we may find ourselves in. He has
our deliverance in mind and knows where our behavior is leading. When His conviction comes it is because He
wants to redeem our lives from destruction.
We must welcome the opportunity to run in the direction He is leading us
towards and away from what He is clearly telling us to flee from. We must embrace this as the Lord’s desire to
spare us from destruction. This truth
will help us resist the enemy’s lies that obedience is a bother and that God is
trying to keep us from all of the fun.
We must look at the leading of God as from a God who desires to rescue
and take it as love and focused concern.
We must realize that God is good and it is ALWAYS a GOOD thing to heed
His voice. He knows what is ahead and
His will is good, perfect and acceptable.
