When you are continually on your face before God, seeking Him in His Word, His presence will soak your heart, making it sensitive and teachable. Just as a marriage relationship can begin to grow cold unless proactive steps are taken daily to keep it warm, your heart can gradually harden when you aren’t seeking intimacy with God. You must also obediently respond to whatever He tells you to do so that your heart will stay soft and receptive. Then it won’t take much for the Lord to get your attention, and when He convicts you of sin, you will want to deal with the problem right away. This is why we must walk in the Spirit moment by moment.
If you believe that God is leading you in a certain direction, take the time to earnestly seek His mind on the matter, and open your heart to listen to Him. Be careful about getting busy with a substitute for what He originally called you to do.
It would be tragic to work extra hard doing what you and others consider good, only to discover that your effort was spent in accomplishing something that was not God’s intention. Resisting the Lord often amounts to putting your life on the shelf, which leaves you feeling that something is missing. There is no substitute for God’s will, even when His plan might seem difficult or impossible. But when you totally trust Him with your whole heart, there is no limit to what God can do through your life.
