“Scripture illuminates the path along which the Holy Spirit is leading me. Remember, the word will always confirm the actions of the Spirit while the Spirit always activates the word.”

Psalm 119:105
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

Immediately after Jesus had been baptised, according to the Law of Moses, the Holy Spirit led him into the wilderness where he fasted for 40 days. Now in his early thirties, Jesus had been brought up under the sound of the Torah and the prophets. He was steeped in the word of God. Undoubtedly, he would have checked that every decision he made was confirmed by the word of God. Now, in the desert, he comes under the attack of Satan. Satan attempts to tempt Jesus to abandon his calling as Messiah and bow to his macabre continence. Deviously, Satan quotes Scripture at Jesus when tempting him to sin.

The word of God is sharper than a double-edged sword, discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. The word of God is a light to our path, guiding our every move in life. However, all Scripture is subjective to interpretation. That is, you can take a scripture (as did Satan in the wilderness with Jesus) and make it mean what you want it to mean. Taking Scripture out of context is exceedingly dangerous. Doing so can lead you in completely the wrong direction in life.

I have learnt to always use Scripture as confirmation of what the Holy Spirit has already placed in my heart. The Spirit often uses circumstance to direct our life’s track. When turning to Scripture for guidance we ask, firstly, do my circumstances line up with sound doctrine? If not, then I am being led astray. Secondly, do the verses I read in the Bible confirm the leading or desire I sense in my heart? If not, then my desires are contrary to the will of God. Scripture illuminates the path the Holy Spirit is leading me along. Remember, the word will always confirm the actions of the Spirit while the Spirit always activates the word.

God-tracking is using Scripture to confirm desire.

“If God has called you then he will watch over his calling to perform it. No matter the storm, have faith in his calling.”

Luke 8:25
But He said to them, “Where is your faith?”

Jesus and his disciples were crossing Lake Tiberias to minister in the province of the Gadarenes. These
men were committed to Jesus and his ministry. They knew God had a purpose for them to work alongside Jesus as he preached the good news of the Kingdom of God.

Transversing Tiberias is a fair distance for a small sailboat. Halfway through the trip a violent storm arose and waves began to swamp the boat. Jesus was asleep at the stern. Waking him, they yelled, “Master, Master, we are perishing!”  Jesus calmly rebuked the storm and the waves subsided. Then, turning to his men he said. “Where is your faith?”

Prior to this event Jesus had been ministering extensively. His disciples had witnessed many miracles and sat under his profound teaching. Jesus had selected these 12 diverse characters to stand by him in his work. God had a plan and a purpose for each of these men, who, ultimately, would take the gospel to the ends of the earth. Yet, when the storm arose, they doubted their calling, believing they would all die. Despite the storms, the difficulties and the opposition they faced, they should have realised that God’s purposes would prevail for each of them. They needed faith in their calling.

God knows the plans he has for you. His plans are for your success and blessing, for a hope and a future. God has a calling on your life. If you continue to walk by faith, and not by sight, then you will flow in the plans and purposes of God. Acknowledging him in all your ways will cause his purposes to unfold in your life. If God has called you then he will watch over his calling in your life, to perform it. No matter the storm, have faith in his calling.

God-tracking is faith in the calling of God.

“I put my faith in your calling and trust you to bring me to the over side of the lake, safely.”

“Father, I know you have a plan for my life. Dear God, I believe your purposes will prevail no matter the storms I face. You have called me to serve you and I believe that you will watch over your calling on my life to perform it. Forgive me for taking my eyes off you and looking at the waves swamping my boat. Despite the oppositions I face, I put my faith in your calling and trust you to bring me to the over side of the lake, safely. Amen.”

“By his grace, he did it when he saved you from sin and death through the cross of Christ. By grace, he is doing it in your life daily through the auspicious privilege of the power of prayer.”

Luke 10:19
Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

Christian, you and I are new creations in Christ, the old life has passed away and all things have become new. No more fears, no more doubts, no more anxieties and no more guilt. God made Jesus, who was sinless, to become a sin offering for us so that in him we might become righteous by God’s righteousness. Therefore, we have the power and authority, by God’s word and grace, to tread on serpents and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy of our souls. Scripture reassures us that what we bind in prayer on earth is bound in heaven and what we loose in prayer on earth is loosed in heaven.

Prayer is a mighty weapon. We don’t battle against mankind; our battle is against the forces of darkness in heavenly (spiritual) places. When we pray, we move from the physical realm into the spiritual realm. That is, though our bodies are still locked in the physical environ of earth, our souls and spirits move into heavenly places – the realm of the spirit. We are seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. When we pray, by God’s grace, we release the manifold power of heaven. Therefore, guard your heart and seek to pray according to the will of God. God’s word is God’s will. So, get into the word of God and get the word of God into you so that you will see mighty works through your prayers.

Dear Christian, don’t settle for anything less than the power and authority that God, by his grace, has given you through prayer. Grace is God’s doing. By his grace, he did it when he saved you from sin and death through the cross of Christ. By grace, he is doing it in your life daily through the auspicious privilege of the power of prayer.

God-tracking is not settling for anything less than the power of prayer.

“I pull down strongholds and cast down every argument and high thing that exalts itself against your will and purposes in my life.”

“Father God, thank you so much for sending Jesus to die and rise again to set me free from sin and death. Your grace was sufficient to save me and your grace is sufficient to empower me to appropriate the authority of prayer. In prayer, therefore, I pull down strongholds and cast down every argument and high thing that exalts itself against your will and purposes in my life. Amen.”
