Getting Gods’ Strategy

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart

         And do not lean on your own understanding.

In all your ways acknowledge Him,

         And He will make your paths straight”

Proverbs 3:5-6

We spoke previously of ‘staking a claim’ and said that we first must recognize Gods command in our lives to bring the Gospel of the Kingdom to the world.

But that commission was to the entire church and the world is a big place.

So what follows recognition of the commission?

It is identifying our role specifically.

What has God called you and/or your local church to start with?

Prayerfully seek God for the open doors and strategy He has for you.

Keep in mind that what worked for someone else or at some other time is not necessarily how God will direct you to do it.

As the Children of Israel took the Promised Land they didn’t march around a city seven times.

Each battle plan was different and required that on-going intimate relationship with God that lets us in on His secrets for victory.

So we recognize, then we identify Gods’ plan or strategy.

It is so important that we not minimize or improvise after God has revealed His plans.

It is very easy to want to step out in our own ways or with what we “know” will work.

Don’t even seek God if you have no intention of listening to His counsel.

But enough of the ‘don’ts’, let move on to ‘do’ as God reveals His strategy to us!
