Dear God-tracker

2 Corinthians 5:7
…for we walk by faith, not by sight.

GOD-TRACKING IS ACKNOWLEDGING GOD’S FOREKNOWLEDGE OF YOU

“What will be, will be,” said Jess lifting her cappuccino to her lips. Hannah waited for her to take a sip before continuing. “I’m sure Pete and I will be happy after we’re married, but who knows what the future holds? We’ll take one day at a time and let fate do the rest.” In her heart Hannah knew the answer to Jess’ dilemma in facing the unknown lay in acknowledging God but sadly, her friend had closed her heart to the hope of walking by faith in God’s plans for her future.

The Scripture tells us that those whom God foreknew, he predestined to be conformed to his purposes and that all things will work out for the good of those who are called according to his purposes. The sad reality of human life is, of all the animal kingdom, we are the most concerned about tomorrow. But Jesus said, “Do not worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow has enough worries of its own.” The Scripture also calls us to walk by faith. Herein is the key: faith.

It’s my belief God is above and beyond our concept of time. That is, he encompasses time. We read that God was and God is and God is to come. God is past, present and future all at the same time! If God is eternal then he is infinite and infinity is timeless. Predestination is wrapped up in this thought: God has knowledge of you and foreknowledge of your eternity. Therefore, God is already in your tomorrow meeting your needs and planning your life’s track. He has called you by name; you are his! He has a path predestined for you; a path for your eternal salvation as well as your temporal life on earth. If you acknowledge him in all your ways, he will direct you according to this path he has planned for you. That’s what God-tracking is all about. So, in confidence I say, acknowledge God and all thigs will work out for your good and for his glory.

Don’t live by fate; live by faith!

God-tracking is acknowledging God’s foreknowledge of you

Even I though still I need to make choices and plan my future, help me rest in your predestination
Pray
“Sovereign Lord, I confess, from where I stand, I cannot see into tomorrow. But I know you can – you’re there already and have planned my path for me. I believe that fate has nothing to do with the reality of my life. My life, as I acknowledge you, is determined by your purposes for me on earth and beyond to eternity. Therefore, O Lord, I choose to continue to acknowledge you in all my ways and trust you to direct my paths according to your foreknowledge of my tomorrow. Help me to walk by faith and not by what I can see in the natural. Even I though still I need to make life choices and plan my future, help me rest in your destiny for my life and plan according to your will. I’m yours, Jesus! Amen.”

GOD-TRACKING IS KEEPING YOUR HEART PURE TOWARDS THE PURPOSES OF GOD

Dear God-tracker

Psalm 17:8
Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings

 

GOD-TRACKING IS KEEPING YOUR HEART PURE TOWARDS THE PURPOSES OF GOD

Reading the story of David in 1 and 2 Samuel recently I was struck by how normal this man really was. Yes, David was a great king in the early history of Israel; yes he was a mighty worrier and yes he was a great poet. However, David was actually less than the perfect man we imagine him to be. David was simply a man on track with God’s plans for his life – a God-tracker like you and me. But what made King David so unique?

David was the youngest son of his father, Jesse and probably had a very lonely childhood. As a shepherd boy he spent most of his early years out in the hills around Bethlehem caring for his father’s sheep. It was probably here that David developed his deep relationship with God. One day Samuel the prophet was told by God to find the son of Jesse, whom he had chosen, and anoint him to be the next King of Israel. Finding David the shepherd boy Samuel makes him king, even though Saul still reigned over Israel. After this, David became a mighty worrier in the armies of Israel. King Saul was not happy with the popularity of this young up-start and became very jealous of David. So David goes into exile to escape Saul’s intentions to kill him. Here we see how, even though he still honoured God, David became a bandit, raiding and plundering villages. Eventually Saul dies and David takes the throne of Israel becoming the great God fearing King he was.

“So what’s this got to do with me?” you ask.  Well, you see, although David’s life was dramatic and exciting, he endured many hardships, backslid and, at times, becomes quite rebellious. Even after this hero becomes a great leader we see that he doesn’t always get things right. On one occasion David even commits adultery! Yes, this great Bible hero was indeed, less than perfect. We pick up some of David’s dilemmas in life thorough his writings. The Davidic Psalms are among some of the most frank writings in scripture (take a look at Psalm 22 for example). However, as we read these Psalms we begin to realise, although he was not perfect, David always kept his heart humble before God. He was always open and pliable towards God’s Word. And when he committed wrong, he was very quick to admit it and repent. David always honoured God and sought first his kingdom. Perhaps this is why he was called, “a man after God’s own heart.” I’m not sure about you but I can certainly relate to a man like King David. What an example to us all of maintaining a pure and contrite heart in tracking God’s plans and purposes for our lives.

God-tracking is keeping your heart pure towards the purposes of God

GOD-TRACKING IS BEING RESPECTFULLY ASSERTIVE WITH GRACIOUS HUMILITY

trACker 561 The e-Devotional helping to keep you on-track
Published through www.godtracker.co.uk

20 November 2015

Dear God-tracker

1 John 2:1-2My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.

God-tracking is being respectfully assertive with gracious humility

A friend once asked me why it seems Apostle Paul is being manipulative in his letter to Philemon. He showed how the apostle seemed to use his position to strongly influence Philemon to take Onesimus back. He said to me, “Is it okay to use manipulation to get a Godly outcome in a situation?” My answer, no.

We need to understand the historical and cultural context of this short epistle. Oneismus was a runaway slave. He belonged to Philemon. Culturally and historically speaking, he was Philemon’s property. The punishment for a runaway slave in Roman times was death. On his travels, Paul meets Onesimus, who becomes a Christian. Paul urges Oneimus to return to his master, but this would mean certain punishment. So Paul writes a letter to Philemon asking him to accept Onesimus back, not as a slave but as a brother. He even offers to reimburse Philemon for his losses. In his letter Paul uses strong language to forthrightly encourage Philemon to accept Oneimus back, but he does this in love. Paul is indeed, Philemon’s senior in that he is his apostolic leader. As such he encourages the slave master to unconditionally love the runaway slave and set him free. The price for his redemption would be paid by the apostle.

In his correspondence with Philemon, Paul is not being manipulative, he is being respectfully assertive. You may be facing a similar situation today, either from the standpoint of Paul or that of Philemon. It could be you are trying to cause someone else to see the truth of a situation from the position of authority. If so then follow Paul’s example of being graciously forthright and willing to sacrificial, to communicate your point. On the other hand, you may feel you are being manipulated into a decision by someone in authority over you. If so then follow Philemon’s example of graciously and respectfully weigh up their opinion, and then humbly choosing to do what you see to be right. And remember to always acknowledge the Lord in prayer, including in your relationships.

God-tracking is being respectfully assertive with gracious humility

Pray“Dear Lord, I’m in a similar position today. Forgive me for being manipulative in my relationships with others and help me to humbly accept Godly advice, with grace. Thank you for the story of Philemon and Onesimus. I do see, too, that there is a deeper meaning in this epistle: that of your grace shown to me through Jesus Christ. I’m like Onesimus and you are like Philemon. Paul is like Jesus. I have run away from your righteousness and sinned. Therefore, you, O God, have every reason to condemn me to death for my sin. But Jesus has become my intermediary – he is the one who is interceding with you to graciously accept me back. And he has paid the price for my freedom in his blood. Thank you, O Lord, for your assertive grace and love to me. Amen.”

GOD-TRACKING IS RELISHING IN FORGIVENESS

trACker 560
The e-Devotional helping to keep you on-track
Published through www.godtracker.co.uk


13 November 2015

Dear God-tracker

GOD-TRACKING IS RELISHING IN FORGIVENESS

Matthew 6:14-15
For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

A story is told of two brothers who went to their rabbi to settle a longstanding dispute. The rabbi got the brothers to reconcile their differences and shake hands. As they were making their way to the door, he asked each one to make a wish for the other in honor of the Jewish New Year. The elder brother turned to the younger and said, "I wish you what you wish me." The younger man threw up his hands and said, "See, Rabbi, he's starting up again!"

Throughout the New Testament we see how Jesus forgave people. For example the woman caught in adultery, the woman with the alabaster jar and the criminal who was crucified with him. As we read we notice there is no sin too great to be forgiven. In fact, I believe all sin is equal in the eyes of God, because all sin is evil and God is infinitely good. The word sin means to miss the mark. It’s a bit like playing a game of darts. If you aimed at the bull’s eye but missed by one millimeter, you’ve missed the mark completely. Like the old English idiom, which says, “A miss is as good as a mile.” All sin is sin and all have sinned and missed God’s mark of perfect goodness, the result of which is eternal death. But there’s hope: “The free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” God has made a way for your forgiveness of all your sins though Jesus! No sin is too great for God to forgive. Come to him today in repentance and confession and trust in his eternal forgiveness.

However, there is one thing that can inhibit God’s forgiveness and that is your unforgiveness. Unforgiveness is a great stumbling block in the heart of man. Unforgiveness insults God’s forgiveness. It’s like two people stranded in the desert dying of thirst. Then a man appears with a large pitcher of water and the first thirsty man drinks all of it without offering any to his dying friend. Unforgiveness will destroy the one holding on to it.

So, if you’re reading this today as one who is guilty of sin then come quickly to the feet of Jesus in repentance and receive his forgiveness; nothing is to too great to be forgiven. If you’re reading this as a person wishing harm on another because of unforgiveness then come quickly to the feet of Jesus and confess forgiveness for your brother. Do this you will know the sheer liberty of being forgiven and forgiving.

God-tracking is relishing in forgiveness

Shalom

Some of my sins seem great in my eyes but I now know you view all sin as great. Thank you, my Lord, that you forgive me because of the work of Jesus at Calvary. I receive your forgiveness now with deep, deep gratitude. Help me never do these things again. But I know it doesn’t stop there. So I confess that I harbour unforgiveness against others, and I’m really sorry. I choose now to confess that I forgive these people with all my heart, in Jesus’ name. Help me to feel that forgiveness and to walk in it every day. Thank you, my Lord, for forging me and giving me the grace to forgive. Amen.”

GOD-TRACKING IS LIVING EVERY MOMENT CONFIDENT IN HIS SOVEREIGN TIMING

Published through www.godtracker.co.uk 

06 November 2015 

Dear God-tracker

GOD-TRACKING IS LIVING EVERY MOMENT CONFIDENT IN HIS SOVEREIGN TIMING

“The fall of Jericho could be described by a natural disaster,” said the commentator in a TV documentary I was watching about Joshua’s conquest of the city. “The Jordan Rift Valley runs closer to Jericho than the San Andreas Fault does to San Francisco,” he went on to say. “In all likelihood, the walls of Jericho collapsed because of an earthquake.” 

Very often science tries to argue away the supernatural acts of God with natural conclusions. However, as feasible as the scientific conclusion seemed to be in this instance, as I watched, I became even increasingly impressed by the biblical account. If Jericho was breached by a natural earthquake then it’s even more amazing how Joshua was compelled by supernatural timing to blast the ram’s horn at the exact moment that the earth would shake. We need to remember that God is sovereign, his timing is perfect and his ends are supreme!

Through Isaiah the Holy Spirit said, “The former things I declared of old. As they went out from my mouth, and I announced them, suddenly I did them and they came to pass.” And he said, “I am he; I am the first, and I am the last. My hand laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand spread out the heavens; when I call to them, they stand forth together." The creator God we serve is all-knowing, all-powerful and ever-present. Here he is called the first and the last. If this is true then God exists in the past, the present and the future, all at the same time! Therefore, God is superior to time. In other words, God holds time in his hands. The timing of every event in the universe is designed and orchestrated by God Almighty.

God knows your beginning from your end and everything in-between! He was there when you took that first breath and he will be there when you breathe your last. Your God knows every moment and every movement of your life. Is it any wonder the scriptures tell us to acknowledge him in all our ways? If it is true that God prompted a mighty earthquake at precisely the moment the Israelites blew their trumpets in his praise after walking around Jericho 7 times in 7 days then I know that this same God can move your world according to his perfectly timed plans for your life. Rest in his sovereignty over your today and his perfect will for your tomorrow. Try not to fathom God with intellect. Rather fathom him with faith. Commit your moment by moment to him and it will amaze you how all things – both good and bad –  will work out for your good, always!

God-tracking is living every moment confident of his sovereign timing

Every blessing

GOD-TRACKING IS WAKING EVERY MORNING TO CALL HIM DAD

Dear God-tracker

GOD-TRACKING IS WAKING EVERY MORNING TO CALL HIM DAD

“I thought we would stay there longer or be adopted by this family,” said Clair as she shared stories of her childhood one evening around the dinner table. “But we were soon moved on to a new foster home. All my foster carers were wonderful people, but all my brothers and I wanted was a stable, loving home with a mom and dad who would never abandon us like our own parents had.” Clair was the eldest of three siblings. Their biological parents were abusive and negligent resulting in social services had removed them from their birth home, placing them into foster care. Clair was accustomed to looking out for her younger brothers as they moved from home to home but all she ever longed for was for was to be adopted by two caring adults she could call mom and dad. “Finally, when that day came, I remember waking up every morning thinking, mom and dad will always be here every time a wake up. They will never leave me or forsake me.”

Child fostering is a noble and caring occupation but nothing beats the real thing. There is a great need in our society to fully adopt abandoned and abused children. To me, people who choose to adopt other people’s children to love and care for them as their own are heroes. These often abandoned children are welcomed, cared for and shown grace in their time of need.

Christian, when you were once abandoned and lost in this world, Father God chose you in him that you should be holy and blameless before him. In love God predestined you for adoption as his son or daughter through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will. Father God did not need you. Father God did not inherit you – he chose to adopt you. Through the atoning work of Jesus Christ (God’s only begotten Son) Father God made the way for you to come to him just as you are – warts and all – and, because you have acknowledged Jesus as Lord, he has adopted you regardless. Yes, as your Abba Father he will discipline and guide you, but his discipline is always in love like a true father. Though you may rant and rave at times he will never abandon or forsake you. He is your carer, your provider, your comforter and your counselor. He is anything a good father would be and all his children are co-heirs to his Kingdom. All this because he has adopted you by choice, through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will.

God-tracking is waking every morning to call him Dad

GOD-TRACKING IS A RELATIONSHIP NOT A RELIGION

Published through www.godtracker.co.uk


23 October 2015

Dear God-tracker

GOD-TRACKING IS A RELATIONSHIP NOT A RELIGION

It’s been said that true Christianity is a relationship and not a religion. I think it is bit like marriage. I think I can safely say that I know my wife sufficiently well enough to have a reasonable conversation with her. Because of my relationship with her (which is based upon openness and spontaneity) I don’t need to follow any set of rules or traditions in order to communicate with her or enjoy her company. Karen knows my deepest thoughts and I know hers, because we do not recite routine dialogue by rote. We are intimate and natural with each other. I know that at the end of a long hard day, for instance, I can pour out my heart to my wife and draw strength from her counsel. And though I do my best to make her happy I know that she is little impressed by any effort of mine to win her favour by false good works.

Religion is a striving for God's fellowship through rote rapacious recital, while true faith is worshiping God in Spirit and in truth. Religion is a striving for God's favour through one’s good works, while true faith is coming to God through Christ's good work. As a true follower of Christ I believe that do not have a religion; I have a relationship with God. This relationship begins with repentance and is based not on good works but on faith. As in my marriage I try to please my wife in intimacy so too in my walk with God I try to please him in faith. Faith pleases God. And faith is contrary to good works or rote prayer. Faith is spontaneous, intimate and rewarding.

What a privilege we enjoy as true Believers to come directly to Abba Father through faith in Jesus. What an honour to be able to talk to the Almighty as a man would talk to a friend. What a pleasure it is to spontaneously worship the God of heaven in the beauty of his holiness. Dear God-tracker, let us never, never take this privilege for granted! So, come to Jesus today if you’re feeling heavy burdened with religion and humbly yoke up with him in true intimate relationship.

God-tracking is a relationship not a religion

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Quote of the Week
A Sample of Dudley’s Fave Quotes.

“Christianity is not a religion, Christianity is a supernatural revelation.” --- Kathryn Kuhlman

Don’t Give Up, Look Up!
Look up and Fix Your Eyes on Jesus!

I do love you very much and come to Jesus to relieve me of the burden of religion

Pray
“O Father God I realise now how important it is to simply walk with you by faith like Adam did in Eden. I see now that true Christianity is not a religion based or rote prayer or good works but a relationship based on love and faith. I want to walk with you in the intimacy of this relationship. I repent of my feeble efforts to earn your favour by good works. I want to pray in intimate freedom as I worship you in spirit and truth. Help me, Lord, to base my life upon your word and not human traditions. I do love you very much and come to Jesus to relieve me of the burden of religion. In Jesus’ mane I pray. Amen.”
