FAITH PRESCRIPTION: The going of God is leading you in His way.

Judges 6

Is God going with you?
In your endeavor, do you know if God will go with you?
In the calling of God over your life, do you care to know if God is going with you at the juncture of your calling?
In His way to lead, with obedience, there is a way to arrive at the calling of God without failing.
Moses needed to know the way, not to fail, alter, or fall.
Moses, despite his experiences, asked God to receive, and he received from God.
He needed to know for sure how God was going to go with him.
Moses asked God, “Then Moses said to the Lord, ‘See, You say to me, ‘Bring up this people.’ But You have not let me know whom You will send with me. Yet You have said, ‘I know you by name, and you have also found grace in My sight.’ Now therefore, I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight. And consider that this nation is Your people.” (Exodus 33:12-13)
Moses asked God without doubt, and not in complaint.
How are you asking God to know how He is going with you?
God responded to the question of Moses, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”
God is a good God who will answer when His children know how to ask with understanding.
Once, the Israelites were suffering at the hands of the Midianites.
While Gideon was in the business of preparing to hide from the hand of the Midianites, the Angel of the Lord showed up to Gideon, saying, “…The Lord is with you, you mighty man of valor!”(Judges 6:12)
Gideon responded to the word of God, stating,  “O my lord, if the Lord is with us, why then has all this happened to us? And where are all His miracles which our fathers told us about, saying, ‘Did not the Lord bring us up from Egypt?’ But now the Lord has forsaken us and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites.” (Judges 6:13)
Just like Moses, with understanding, Gideon was not in doubt but was asking with understanding.
Asking with understanding is asking with faith.
With humility, he wanted to know if he was competent enough to be the servant of God, the calling of God.
Gideon was so humble when he responded to the assurance of God, stating,“…O my Lord, how can I save Israel? Indeed my clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father’s house.” (Judges 6:15)
The last response of Gideon prompted God to promise, stating, “…Surely I will be with you, and you shall defeat the Midianites as one man.” (Judges 6:16)
What God will not do is, He will not fail to answer one who seeks His way.

Prayer for today: Ask that you be enabled to ask with understanding.
