Hazel had a lot of frustration etched all over her features. Indeed, she had been going through a rough patch of late and everyone around her knew about it; she made sure of that! She had basically gone from one person to another (everyone except her Pastor) asking their help and advice on what to do about her problems. But the more advice she got, the more confused she became.
Many, like Hazel, would rather go to friends for help when they’re in a challenging situation. Sadly, those they meet for help only provide them counsel that doesn’t work, because it’s based on human reasoning and sense knowledge. But as a Christian, you don’t have to settle for that. The Holy Spirit lives in you and He can tell you what to do in every situation for you to always win.
The Bible shows us how Joshua captured Jericho by relying on the Holy Spirit (Joshua 5:13-15). I admonish you today to learn to consult with the Holy Spirit for answers. Ask Him for guidance and direction concerning everything you do. When you face challenges that seem insurmountable, don’t make human consultations your first recourse. Call on the Holy Spirit, and He’ll tell you what to do. He’ll give you the strategies to employ. Depend on Him at all times, for He’s with you, in you, and for you! If you’ll only ask Him, He’ll teach you, lead you, and guide you into victory and triumph in everything you do.
Prayer
Dear Holy Spirit, thank you for guiding and leading me in the path of victory and success always. I declare that I’ll never walk in darkness, confusion or uncertainty, because you’re my light. You teach me the way that I should go and guide me all the time. I love and appreciate you dearly!
