Title: FOLLOWING DIVINE DIRECTION, NOT GEOGRAPHY

John 15:5, Psalm 23:1

Without God you can do nothing. Jesus said He is the Vine and we are the branches. The one who abides in Him and He in that person is the one that brings forth much fruit. That is not a religious statement, it is a practical law of destiny. You must understand that your safety, your wealth and your success are not inside a particular country, they are inside a divine direction. Many people have relocated based on human calculation and popular trends and later discovered that nothing worked, because they followed geography instead of the Shepherd. You may be a pastor who believes you cannot succeed unless you are in a particular city, or a professional who believes that once you step into a certain nation everything will change. The real question is simple, where did the Lord lead you. Psalm 23:1 says, The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. It is who you are following that determines whether you will lack or not, not the post code where you are standing. If you follow the wrong voice, you will lack in the middle of abundance.The same principle applies to your choice of a life partner. When the Lord leads you to a man or woman, it is when you allow emotions, pressure or material things to guide you that you enter into trouble in marriage. Servicing your relationship with the Holy Spirit is a foundational principle for manifestation in every area. When you accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, you received the greatest gift God gave to the world. When Jesus went back to heaven, His greatest gift to the church was the Holy Spirit. He is your divine Helper and Guide. Building a strong relationship with the Holy Spirit is like any other relationship. The more intentional you are, the deeper it becomes. Some people have walked with Him to the point that His presence is more real to them than that of their spouse or relatives. They can sense His pleasure, His warnings and His instructions in a very personal way because they have taken Him seriously.This is the direction God is calling you into this year. Stop treating the Holy Spirit as an influence in the air. He is a Person that wants to walk with you through your decisions. Talk to Him when you are planning a move. Ask for His mind when you are considering a job, a business, a relationship or a major purchase. Listen for His restraints and His green lights and be ready to obey even when it does not favour your feelings. The degree to which you will manifest the word of God in your life this year will depend on how much you allow the Holy Spirit to guide you and how willing you are to follow His leading. Every time you choose His voice above pressure, fear and popular opinion, you are stepping into the path where your true future is waiting. Do not run your life as if you are sufficient in yourself. Let this be the year you practise deep dependence on God and enjoy the reality of the Lord as your Shepherd in every step you take.THOUGHT TO PONDER: Have you been trusting more in geography, opportunities and people than in the Shepherd who knows your future. In what specific decisions this year will you deliberately slow down and seek the Holy Spirit before making a move.

Prayer: Holy Spirit, deliver me from running my life by human calculation and help me to follow Your direction in every decision so that I can enter the future You planned for me. Amen.
