“Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.” (Isaiah 30:21).
GPS, Global Positioning System, the technology we use now to get where we’re going. It works pretty well…most of the time. But how about God’s Positioning System? I set my map app to guide me to a destination but if I make a wrong turn it will say, “Reroute, make a U-turn.” It knows I’m going the wrong way and wants to get me back on the right road. Wouldn’t it be great if our God Positioning System would do the same? Well, it actually does IF we have it updated, (read our Bible), have the volume turned up and are willing to follow the directions. That “still, small voice”, (1 Kings 19:12) will warn us to either, “Don’t go there!” or “Get back on the Path.”. We then have the choice to listen, follow His directions or to go our own way. Jesus said numerous times to several people, “Follow Me.” Such a good command that we should be following.
In our life’s journey, we’ll frequently be distracted and tempted to get off the path, to take the tantalizing exit or check out something on the side of the road. You know what I mean. But listen to the whisper of the Holy Spirit and follow His directions. Now sometimes, we WILL take a wrong turn and get lost but God is always there to guide us back. Just call out to Him, ”God, I’m lost. Help me!” He’ll get you back on the right road. “But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” (Matthew 7:14). He’ll help you find it.
So, let’s get our Spiritual GPS updated, turned on and listen to the directions. That way, we’ll be on the right highway. “And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness; it will be for those who walk on that Way. The unclean will not journey on it; wicked fools will not go about on it.” (Isaiah 35:8). Let’s go!
