WHAT IS DIVINE DIRECTION?
So the Lord alone did lead him, and there was no strange God with him.
Deuteronomy 32:12 (KJV)
We established that Yahweh created man and placed him in Eden. Yahweh brought us forth from the womb into this world. That Yahweh has a purpose in mind for bringing me. Having come of age, I must seek to know the purpose for my making. Purpose is the original intention for the creation of a thing. Man was made to worship and praise Yahweh; to bring pleasure to Yahweh. There is also specific purpose for each one of us. For instance, the purpose of the author is “To bring all people to maturity in their knowledge of HaMashiach, so they can begin to reign in life and ready for eternity. (see 1 Corin. 2:6-7)” When you understand your personal purpose, you seek the Lord to know the vision. Vision is the visual insight into where you are going to end up. Yahweh may show you the vision of the end of your life. From where you are to the end of the vision is where divine direction comes in. Divine Direction is the unfolding of the details of the “how” to go about achieving the vision Yahweh has given you. Divine Direction is receiving the instructions from Yahweh from time to time on the next step and moves to make in line with fulfilling your Yahweh-ordained vision.
Proverbs 16:25 says, ‘There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.’ From where you are now, what path should you take to reach where Yahweh has shown you? What must you do to ensure the fulfilment of Yahweh’s vision for your life. These details are what divine direction communicates. That it is right, does not mean you should do it. Acts 16:6-7 showed us the Holy Spirit forbidding people from preaching the Word at certain places; ‘6 Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia, 7 After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not.’ These were missionaries that their sole vision was to preach the Word but even though it was the right thing, they were forbidden. That is the place of divine direction.
That it is not logical, does not mean you should not do it. In Genesis 26:1-2, there was famine in Philistines unto Gerar and Isaac was living there. The logical thing is to migrate to where there was no famine Egypt. But divine direction said, ‘Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of: Sojourn in this land,’ (vs 2-3). When he obeyed, even in the midst of famine, this became his testimony, ‘12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him. 13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:’ Beloved, circumstance should not determine your action. What Yahweh is saying should determine your next step. Selah!
REMEMBER: Divine Direction is the step by step action details by Yahweh towards your vision fulfilment.
PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. I ask for the details of the next move I should make towards the vision you have put in my heart in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree the your eyes and ears open now to receive that instruction that will make you the envy of your world in Yahushua’s name Amen!
