God Will Go Ahead of You

Listen to the Audio

As we enter into the summer this a time when things can start to get hot, meaning there may be an increase in pressure. When you are walking by faith and following God's lead there may be the temptation to look into the future and wonder if your journey is going to be successful. It is important to remember that God is already working ahead of you to prepare the way. In Genesis 24, Abraham sends his servant to get a wife for his son Isaac. Abraham's servant then asks...What do I do if the woman is unwilling to come back with me?

And Abraham responded with, " the Lord, who brought me out of my father's house and promised me on oath will send his angel before you so that you can get a wife for my son." Abraham new that because of his covenant with God, that God was helping him in everything he did. We also have a covenant with God, and he is working ahead of us. 

In their journey to the promised land God told his people that he would send his angel ahead of them. Jesus also promised that he would go ahead of us to prepare things. If you find yourself looking out into an unknown future and worrying during this time of the year, let that be a signal to start thanking God that he is already working ahead of you, and our job is to trust, get back into the present moment, do what we know to do TODAY with peace, joy, and confidence in God, and love people. Another thing that I have found to be helpful is to go for walk with God each day, as a reminder that you can take the time to connect with him because he is already working ahead of you to clear the way. 

I am praying for you.
