DISCOVERING DIVINE DESIGNS
I being in the way, the Lord led me...
Genesis 24:27
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=ge+24:27&sr=1
We have to be so one with God that we do not continually need to ask
for guidance. Sanctification means that we are made the children of
God, and the natural life of a child is obedience - until he wishes
to be disobedient, then instantly there is the intuitive jar. In the
spiritual domain the intuitive jar is the monition of the Spirit of
God. When He gives the check, we have to stop at once and be renewed
in the spirit of our mind in order to make out what God's will is. If
we are born again of the Spirit of God, it is the abortion of piety
to ask God to guide us here and there. "The Lord led me," and on
looking back we see the presence of an amazing design, which, if we
are born of God, we will credit to God.
We can all see God in exceptional things, but it requires the culture
of spiritual discipline to see God in every detail. Never allow that
the haphazard is anything less than God's appointed order, and be
ready to discover the Divine designs any where.
Beware of making a fetish of consistency to your convictions instead
of being devoted to God. I shall never do that - in all probability
you will have to, if you are a saint. There never was a more
inconsistent Being on this earth than Our Lord, but He was never
inconsistent to His Father. The one consistency of the saint is not
to a principle, but to the Divine life. It is the Divine life which
continually makes more and more discoveries about the Divine mind. It
is easier to be a fanatic than a faithful soul, because there is
something amazingly humbling, particularly to our religious conceit,
in being loyal to God.
