Distractions (Digital) damages the Divine interactions.
The Adonai used Elijah to perform miracles of the fire (in opposition of 1:450 false prophets) followed by the water (in drought with Ahab), however he has to deal carefully to be focused what is the next in the God's agenda with out any distractions. We can not face our new challenges by using yesterday's (fire and water miracles to be managed as He guides) experience. He prayed in a posture by asking God to show mercies and his servant kept looking the formation of the miracle in the form rain after a heavy drought.
James 5:17-18 CEV- [17] Elijah was just as human as we are, and for three and a half years his prayers kept the rain from falling. [18] But when he did pray for rain, it fell from the skies and made the crops grow.
• Jesus taught us to face every season by asking Him, like give us our daily bread. We must listen to Him from all distractions to stay focused,
• David would have easily killed King Saul in the Cave at En Gedi, if he had listened to his troops, however he kept reminded himself not to put hands on God's anointed.
• In Damascus, Disciple Annaias heard from the Lord to open the eyes of the Paul by getting clear instructions-Go to the house of Judas on Straight Street and ask for a man from Tarsus named Saul, for he is praying. Paul's transformation and insights from the Lord Jesus Christ fulfilled.
• Though Hannah was provoked to the level of irritation by Peninnah, she was ready to break the complacency in her life by praying God to birth Samuel.
May the new beginnings rain upon our families and churches in Jesus Name. Let's be in touch with Him constantly, over any distractions (including busyness), to experience His directions in our lives.
Hebrews 12:2] looking away from all that will distract us and focusing our eyes on Jesus, who is the Author and Perfecter of faith the first incentive for our belief and the One who brings our faith to maturity, who for the joy of accomplishing the goal set before Him endured the cross, disregarding the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God revealing His deity, His authority, and the completion of His work.
Wishing you a Joyful Jun 2024.
Peace be upon Israel and Us. Shalom. 🙏
In His Grip...
