Daily Devo 3 November
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (emancipation from bondage, freedom).— 2 Corinthians 3:17 (AMPC)
From the book Power Thoughts Devo – by Joyce Meyer
One of the most dynamic ways to keep your joy is to allow the Holy Spirit to lead you (see Psalm 139:24). If you pray first, asking God for a plan, He will never push you into a work of the flesh (something that takes up all your energy without producing anything of value). Instead, His Holy Spirit prompts, guides, and gently leads you to a place of joy; He will never manipulate or control you. But if you’re too consumed with your own plan, too locked into the way you think things ought to be, you won’t even hear God speak to you or recognize the promptings from Him that will help you succeed. If you are too determined to follow your own ritualistic rules, you can miss the gentle leading of the Holy Spirit and lose the joy He wants you to have.
It’s not wrong to have a plan, but always offer your plan to God and tell Him that if He has something else in mind, you’re willing to submit to His plan. When you do this, you position yourself for Him to bless you and make your path straight (see Proverbs 3:5-6).
