Phil Wickham sings, "Have you heard of the One Who can calm the raging sea, give sight ot the blind, pull the lame up to their feet? With a love so strong, He'll never let you go. No, you're not alone. You will be safe in His arms! You will be safe in His arms! 'Cause the hands that hold the world are holding your heart. This is the promise He made: He will be with you always! When everything is falling apart, you will be safe in His arms!" ("Safe") Remember, no matter what you are going through, God is right there with you. I saw this quote online: "Safe in His hands. Secure in His love. When life gets too hard, just look up above." His Word even says, "The Lord will keep you from all harm--He will watch over your life." (NIV)
The central verse for this evening is Nehemiah 2:6, which says, "Then the king, with the queen sitting beside him, asked me, 'How long will your journey take, and when will you get back?' It pleased the king to send me; so I set a time." (NIV)
I'm sure you've heard the term, "mother's intuition." Leaders have intuition, too. According to Maxwell, they have an inherent sense to know when to act. He uses Nehemiah as an example. He knew the details of what he needed to do, and no doubt that intuition was from God.
If you hear God's voice calling you to do something, do it! Act in faith! He knows what He's doing! Don't worry, you'll be safe in His arms!
The reflection question today asks, "How can you incorporate what your intuition is telling you into your life and goals?" Really the only thing I can say on this is that we need to learn when to let go and let God. But we also need to know when He is calling us to action. Even if the situation seems gloomy, don't fear. "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with My righteous right hand." (Isaiah 41:10, NIV) Trust in Him and follow His direction!
God bless you!
