DCLM Sincere Milk  11 March 2023 Devotional by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — God will lead you

TOPIC: GOD WILL LEAD YOU

TEXT: JEREMIAH 33:1-3

1Moreover the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying,

2Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof, the LORD that formed it, to establish it; the LORD is his name;

3Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

Key Verse: “Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not” (Jeremiah 33:3).

MESSAGE:

Ruddy resumed in a new school on Monday because his family relocated to another town. Friday was the first time he would go to the school alone. As he was going, he got to a junction and did not know where to turn to.

Although, the road to the right looked like the road to the school, he quickly prayed and asked God to lead him. Shortly after he prayed, God led him to go straight and not to turn right. He obeyed and got to school safely.

The key verse talks about God’s promise to answer us and also lead us when we pray. God leads and guides His children. He wants to lead you too, if you would trust Him and ask Him to lead you. The choices we make have effect on us now and even in the future. Wrong choices lead to unnecessary sufferings, hardship, failure and even eternity in hell.

We are products of our decisions. Depend on God and ask Him to guide you and help you make choices based on His word every time. Let God guide you on choice of friends, the course to study, and in other areas of life. God guides His children. If you are not yet one, repent now to enjoy the privilege of being guided by God.

Prayer: Dear Father, please guide and lead me to make right choices, in Jesus’ Name.

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
