Admin	Are you walking wisely in God's will? Do you understand what God's basic will is for your life and the lives of all His children? Posted : 23 Feb, 2011 05:43 AM My heart and spirit were joyfully reminded anew to remember Who's will I should be endeavoring to walki in throughout each day as I read today's devotion from Charles Stanley's In Touch devotional magazine with the Holy Spirit ... and, of course, it's another good reminder for all of us!!! :hearts::hearts::hearts: Love, Steve Walking Wisely Wednesday, February 23, 2011 Read | Ephesians 5:15-17 When Paul exhorts us to walk wisely, he gives three instructions to help us make godly choices. First, he says to �be careful how you walk� (Eph. 5:15). Because we live in a morally corrupt society, we must be vigilant about the way we think and act. Unless we deliberately choose to guard ourselves, we will simply do what comes naturally and go along with cultural influences. Next, in verse 16, the apostle instructs us to make the most of our time. The Lord has entrusted each of us with 24 hours per day and various opportunities to participate in His plans for us. But so often we are tempted to squander our time and energy on our own pursuits without a thought of what our heavenly Father may have in mind for us. In verse 17, Paul lays out the final exhortation: to �understand what the will of the Lord is.� In its broadest sense, God�s will for us is that we would each become the person He created us to be and do the work He planned for us to accomplish (Eph. 2:10). Knowing this, we should look at every decision with consideration of whether our choice will further or hinder our heavenly Father�s purposes for us. To live thoughtlessly outside of His will is foolish. The Lord wants us to walk wisely so that we can enjoy all the marvelous benefits that He�s promised in His Word and longs to give us. Wasted opportunities and time misspent can never be reclaimed. Let�s commit to make our lives count for Christ instead of merely living for ourselves. Copyright 2011 In Touch Ministries, Inc.
