Look For The Moment

God has a way of showing us what He wants us to see and do. It is built in to the many patterns He has placed in the earth for us to follow. The sabbath is one of those patterns. The sabbath is a day when He originally knelt down to be with His creation, with us. It is a foreshadowing of a time to come about which we only know in part. But we can trust God to show us His ways, if we look for those moments, those patterns, those signs that reveal who He is and what He wants us to do. The psalmists wrote of this many times.

Psalms 32:8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.

Here God says He will instruct and teach in the way we should go. THen, in a repetitive pattern, He tells us He will do it by guiding us with things we can see. In the Hebrew the word eye can mean a literal eye or something that stands out when you see it. In this verse it likely means the latter. The things we can see include the patterns of God, established from the beginning.

Today, as you rest, look for the patterns and let God teach you His ways.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. Reveal to us Your patterns for life. Show us what You have for us to do. Help us be willing to see what You are trying to show us. Please send today the healing, deliverance, and provision we need. In Jesus’ (Yeshua’s) name. Amen.
