Do You Understand?


Day 37
You cannot understand my ways, but you know my voice. Follow Me. Listen to Me. The time is short. There is much to be accomplished. You know this, but I have the plan, for I can see the end from the beginning.

Commit all your ways to Me. Discipline, like any quality I desire, comes little by little. I will give you victory. Hold to my promises. Keep them before you. Be true to my word. It is power for you. The answers do not always come all at once. I will give you enough for each day. It is so important that you persevere in first seeking Me, then obeying Me. It must become your habit--your walk. We are near the beginning. There is a long, long way to go. That is good. It is in my hand. Your focus is the next step, and I supply the light and the resources.

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow Me [John 10:27].

Where then does wisdom come from? And where is the place of understanding? Thus it is hidden from the eyes of all living and concealed from the birds of the sky. Abaddon and Death say, "With our ears we have heard a report of it."

God understands its way, and He knows its place. For He looks to the ends of the earth and sees everything under the heavens. When he imparted weight to the wind and meted out the waters by measure, when He set a limit for the rain and a course for the thunderbolt, then He saw it and declared it; He esablished it and also searched it out. And to man He said, "Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding" [Job 28:20-28].
