The Compass of Life

Memorize and Meditate

“And he said, ‘…. As for me, being on the way, the Lord led me to the house of my master’s brethren.’” (Genesis 24:27)

Soak your Heart

If we expect to receive God’s guidance, direction, and blessing, it is critical that we are “on the way” – the Lord’s way. If we expect him to answer our requests, we must make sure we are abiding in him and his Word is abiding us. We must bring our lives into harmony with his revealed will for us.

Only then are we empowered to fulfill the mission he has given us. What better time to check that we are “on the way” God has chosen for us than when we are meditating on the Word he wants to incorporate into our life?

Sow to the Spirit

As we talk with God, it is important for us to make sure we are conforming with the directions he seeks to give us.

Pray, “Lord, I want to make sure what I am doing is in accordance with your revealed will for me at this time.”

Abraham’s servant fulfilled his mission by “being on the way.” If we are to be successful Converterlators  we must be “on the way.” Therefore, I like to sow to the Spirit a flowing thought that as I am “on the way,” the Lord leads me.

Flow with the Spirit

As I depart for work, I have the confidence that I am on the way God has chosen for me until he tells me something different. He can and will change the direction I am going if he desires to do so. Flowing with the Spirit is always having an expectation that is truly working in my circumstances.

Practice

As you reflect on this Scripture passage, develop a mindset that you are “on the way.” God knows your life from beginning to end. He knows about everything in between the beginning and the end. Therefore, we should be developing a sense of confidence in his provision as we navigate our way through this world.

Stay in Balance!

  Then Jesus said, “Let’s go off by ourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile.” He said this because there were so many people coming and going that Jesus and his apostles didn’t even have time to eat. Mark 6:31 Stay in Balance Everywhere Jesus went, He was healing people, teaching in the synagogues, pouring Himself into His disciples. People made constant demands on His time and energies. Imagine how He felt. As the Son of God, He had this incredible power, anointing, wisdom, so much to offer. Yet at times, when He was exhausted, He would go away from the crowds and get alone so He could be refreshed. Despite the pressing needs around Him, Jesus knew that He had to take care of His temple.  If the Son of God had to be alone and rest, if He couldn’t meet all the demands of the people around Him, why do we think we can go all the time and be everything for everyone? No matter how anointed, strong, smart, or gifted you are, you get depleted. Despite all the needs around you, yo...

Give Cheerfully!

        Give Cheerfully “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”  (2 Corinthians 9:7) When giving is done with the right attitude, it can be a gateway for God to move in significant ways in our lives. It is important to remember that it is not the amount we give that matters so much as it is the attitude that characterizes our giving. God loves it when we give out of a cheerful and grateful heart. God’s loving of a cheerful giver results in God taking action in our lives. Scripture states unequivocally that God will make all spiritual and earthly blessing abound to us so we can multiply our efforts for the kingdom. This is why I believe giving provides a major gateway for God to work in our lives, we can expect God to visit us. Jesus will fellowship with the cheerful giver, and the Holy Spirit will impart life to out mortal bodies. When we weave a pattern of giving...
