Listen for God’s Direction

“Now an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, ‘Arise and go toward the south along the road which goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.’ This is desert. So he arose and went. And behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge of all her treasury, and had come to Jerusalem to worship, was returning. And sitting in his chariot, he was reading Isaiah the prophet.”

Acts 8:26-28

Ponder This

God never leaves a fully surrendered, cleansed vessel unused. You want to be used? Would you like to be a witness? Would you like to be an evangelist? Would you like to meet the Lord Jesus Christ bringing your sheaves with you? Would you like to rejoice in this life and in the world to come? I know you would. Say, “Yes, Lord, yes.”

You need to be sensitive to the direction of the Spirit. We’ve been talking today about following Christ. If Christ is leading and you’re not listening, then you’re in difficulty. From a human viewpoint, what the Holy Spirit told Philip to do did not really make a lot of sense. He’s in this incredibly wonderful revival in Samaria, and God tells him to leave Samaria and go to Gaza.

God’s ways are often unexplained. I mean, God did not say, “Now Philip, I want you to go here. There’s a man of great importance that I want you to meet.” God just said go, and it’s as if Philip went under sealed orders. Now, I don’t mean that you’re to go off willy-nilly, here and there, but are you sensitive enough that if the Holy Spirit of God tells you to go, you’ll go? When you are open and willing, God is faithful. He will show you where to go.

• Have you ever felt God’s direction of the Holy Spirit? What was that like?
• Are you open and willing to be used by God? What is holding you back from living fully for Him?

Practice This

Seek God’s direction through prayer and ask Him to show you who to share your faith with today.
