Out of the wilderness...

It's a wonderful experience to wait for the Lord to make a way where I couldn't see a way.  It's even more wonderful to suddenly see a door open in front of me that had not been there before.  The first reaction is automatically one of joy and excitement.  But, there is a but...

The devil is walking around like a roaring lion to see whom he can devour.  Be careful if you are in a situation like this.  He will also open a door for you, just to get you on a detour so that God's will cannot be fulfilled in your life.  You need wisdom and discernment to decide which way you should go.  Don't just assume the first door that opens is from God.  Wait on Him, ask for confirmation.  He said in his word that He will confirm His word.

Pray for wisdom and discernment and hold on to this promise:

Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.”

Isaiah 30:21(NIV)
