God's Will is a Light in Dark Times

Years ago, in the middle of a long, grinding trial, Blake got two waves of bad news in a single day. That night, God gave him something he's never forgotten — light in the dark, without changing a single circumstance. In this episode, he tells the story of how it came: an ordinary evening, an unexpected nudge, and a line from Henry Blackaby that stopped him cold.Anchored in Matthew 6:10 and Blackaby's Experiencing God, this devotional gets at the order most of us skip: before you can discern God's will in a hard season, you first have to settle your unconditional “yes” — committing to obey before you even know what He'll ask. The light God gives usually isn't an answer, an escape, or a change in circumstances. It's Himself — enough to steady you, and enough to show you the next step to walk.Follow Before the Lord on Facebook (@BeforeTheLord) and Instagram (@beforethelorddevo).
