Many times we may not understand why God is telling us to do certain things. We may even question Him in asking “Are you sure, God?”. It is best for us to not believe that God is mistaken in what He says. If our life is to bring honor and glory to God then we must realize that our disobedience will only bring Him dishonor. We should not put our view of the situation above God’s direct conviction thinking that we have a better idea of how things should happen. Surrendering our lives to Jesus means that we must step out in faith even if we do not understand the complete picture or intended outcome.
In the book of John chapter 11 verses 7-8, the disciples are confronted with this same dilemma.
John:7-8 “Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again. His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?”
Jesus had recently faced much hatred in Judea as much to the point of the people trying to kill Him. The disciples were frightened for His and their own safety. They question Jesus about the return. Jesus answers them with reassurance that while He is with them and they are obeying the will of God, nothing will happen to them that God does not ordain. We must also remember that truth.
I have been adding a bible study video within these posts to further the insight in which hopefully we can gain from the Word. These studies and this page is intended to bring us all a little closer to our Lord in our daily walk. Please feel free to give feedback and join in the journey to encourage and help each other. Thank you all for reading and listening. May God give us understanding.
