Sometimes the pressure or the heat of life can steam up our vision to a point where it is hard to see the vision and the path for your life. We allow outside influences such as friends, family, and the media block our sight of where God is trying to take us in life.
It is important that we see life clearly, that we see life correctly, comprehensively and completely; that we might see life from God’s perspective rather than our own. The Bible calls that wisdom.
We get caught up in fog when we try to please people. We get caught up in fog when we want to do things on our own and not consult God about the path He wants for us to take. We get caught up in fog when we don’t study the word for ourselves and receive revelation from God. We get caught up in the fog when get envy of other peoples’ success.
We must remember to keep our eyes on God and allow him to wipe with smoke and fog from our eyes.
“You can see a path of expansion before you. Don’t obsess about expanding; rather, let Me use My word in and through you to establish a pathway that you will see and follow. Refuse to be in stress or try to control the progression or outcome. Watch and be amazed at how I will direct this great drama that will unfold before you. It will be a production that will be unforgetable. Be My instrument of divine purpose, says the Lord.”
Psalm 119:1-8
1-8 You’re blessed when you stay on course,
walking steadily on the road revealed by God.
You’re blessed when you follow his directions,
doing your best to find him.
That’s right—you don’t go off on your own;
you walk straight along the road he set.
You, God, prescribed the right way to live;
now you expect us to live it.
Oh, that my steps might be steady,
keeping to the course you set;
Then I’d never have any regrets
in comparing my life with your counsel.
I thank you for speaking straight from your heart;
I learn the pattern of your righteous ways.
I’m going to do what you tell me to do;
don’t ever walk off and leave me.
