The LORD’s Word Or The World’s Ways?
When the future looks unstable, heed the Lord’s word, not the world’s ways. ~~~ Have you ever seen or played for yourself, that leadership game where one person is blindfolded and placed on side of the room, and their partner is placed on the other side, and in between them is a minefield of obstacles? And the goal is for the blindfolded person to listen to the voice of their partner in order to navigate through the minefield. If you want to add to the fun, encourage other people in the room to shout out commands and directions in order to distract the blindfolded person. That is just a simple game to play in order to highlight the need to give clear, succinct directions, and also how to zero in on one voice. In 1 Samuel 8, we are not dealing with a fun, simple game, but a real life situation that we all find ourselves in, probably more times than we would like to admit. The people of Israel are at a crossroads, and they begin to look around them to the other nations, and they start paying attention to their voices. And here is what we need to learn: When the future looks unstable, heed the Lord’s word, not the world’s ways. Over the next few weeks, we are going to see what happens when this truth is not heeded.
