If we live life without seeking Him and His will first, we will end up messing up, trying to do things how we think they should be done. This was a lesson for me that I need to double check with The Father first before going forward.
How many of us really seek God 1st before anything? Yes, I mean 1st before anything. That means seeking Him before a meeting, before making a decision, before talking about someone, before crying, before celebrating. "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." Matthew 6:33. What does that verse mean to you? Do you live for God? Do you breathe for Him? What does that even mean?
Are we just listening to the beat or melody of a song without listening or understanding the lyrics? "My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God." Psalm 84:2 How many times have you talked about Him outside of church this week?
You've been summoned. Engage. "Then I heard another voice from heaven say: "'Come out of her, my people,' so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues;" Revelation 18:4 "As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them." Acts 13:2
Even Saint Paul did not realize it untit he heard the call on the road to Damascus
