Hearing from God Each Morning (August 1)

This blog is about today’s devotion in the book Hearing from God Each Morning by Joyce Meyer.

Today’s devotion is something that I have had on my mind a lot this past couple of days. Meyer talks about how we pray specific prayers to God asking Him what we should do in certain situations, such as, “God, do you want me to take this job or wait for another?” The thing is, God wants to help us and guide us in these decisions, but He also wants us to live in His general will. If we are not doing the things He tells us to do in His Word (and doing those we are NOT supposed to do), then we are not living in His will for us, and it is harder for us to hear from Him.

There are things I need to eliminate in my life in order to better hear from God. He is leading me places and I need to be as in tune with Him and His will as possible, or I may miss what He is trying to show me. I need to learn to do what He has already told me to do as I wait for Him to tell me what I need to do next.
