Your Spiritual Compass - Part Two
 
By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the king's anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible.  Hebrews 11:27 
 
Start using the spiritual compass God has placed within you. Yes, it's risky, but it'll open doors that nothing else will. Do you remember the widow in 1 Kings, Chapter 17, of whom the prophet Elijah requested her last meal? When fear whispered, 'You only have enough for yourself,' her spiritual compass said, 'Give what you've got, and God will give you back what you need!' She did, and she outlived her famine! When Saul saw Goliath, he told David, 'You'll never defeat him' (1Sam 17:33). When David saw Goliath, his spiritual compass immediately pointed toward God and he announced, 'The Lord...will deliver me...!' (1 Sam 17:37). Look at Noah; building a floating zoo in the desert, because he heard a voice that nobody else did! As a result, his family was saved and his name was immortalized. History is full of them; people like Benjamin Franklin, who dared to fly his kite in a thunder storm and discover electricity; or Annie Sullivan, who saw in Helen Keller greatness that would inspire the world for years to come. No, they weren't gods, and they weren't perfect, they were just 'compass carriers' who saw what others didn't, and had the faith to act on it! What has God shown you that others don't see? Whatever it is, that's what He'll give you power to perform!
 
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me to trust the spiritual compass you have given me!  Empower me to move in the areas of unknown, knowing that you are there with me.  In Jesus’ Name, Amen
