Speaker: Pastor Jeff Chong
Date: 24th January '09
11I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. 12 I will meditate on all your works and consider all your mighty deeds.
[Psalm 77:11-12]
“We don't know what holds for us tomorrow, what we do know is who holds our tomorrow”
1) God has promised to guide me
[Psalm 33:8]
5Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6in all ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
[Proverbs 3:5-6]
God wants to guide you, more than you want Him to guide you.
Eg. Hard heart and therefore we refuse to listen.
A surrendered heart says, “God will lead, but we MUST follow”
2) God has prescribed His ways for me
7Therefore Jesus said again, “I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep
[John 10:7]
I. Through the word of God
[2 Timothy 3:16-17]
[Proverbs 20:23]
II. Through the Spirit of God
-Logos and Rhema [Act 16:6-7]
Therefore, what you hear or sense has to be measured with the Word of God
III. Through the counsel of Godly people
22Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed.
[Proverbs 15:22]
3) God has purposed to glorify His name
-As we flow in accordance to His purpose, we WILL glorify Him
[Psalm 73:24]
