Teach me to do Thy will;
for thou art my God: Thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness. Psalm 143:10
The land of uprightness.
God’s Kingdom is here, now.
God said to Joshua, Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you,
as I said unto Moses. Joshua 1:3
That means, if we are walking with Jesus, following His precepts, we are overtaking ground.
We are blessed of God and we walk in His fulness.
He protects us. He also gives us standing.
We have a spiritual honor that belongs to us because we belong to the Lord Jesus Christ.
This must be in humility before the Lord. It is He who gives us this right and we have not earned it.
We have it because we serve the Living God who created all things in the universe.
Be careful not to assume you have a position.
It is something Jesus will show you, something He gives you the rights to.
The Seven Sons of Sceva in the Book of Acts exemplify why we do not assume we have authority.
The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and His ears are open unto their cry. Psalm 34:14
When a man’s ways please the Lord, He maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him. Proverbs 16:7
God still calms the storms and the raging seas.
His voice billows over the loudness of the enemy.
He will sometimes have us to sit and wait and watch Him work. God is always working.
He is always creating opportunities
so that He may strongly support those whose hearts trust faithfully in Him. (from 2 Chronicles 16:9)
When we walk closely with the Lord, His desires become our desires.
The more Jesus becomes a part of us,
the more we understand His will and want to do the things He has created us to do.
The most important being our relationship with God. We love Him because He first loved us. 1 John 4:19
All of God’s desires are written in His word. That is where we can find His will. He left nothing out.
