God’s message for today: Don’t speak when I haven’t spoken, and don’t go where I haven’t sent you

The decisions we make today can either draw us closer to God or push us away from him. It is significant to ask God if he approves of our daily routine. In other words, I persuade you to "ask God for the spirit of discernment." It is important that we live our lives in order to please God rather than our own self interests! The main point of Jonah's story was to teach us to be obedient (submissive). God was not pleased with Jonah's decision because he chose to go to Tarshish over Nineveh.

In Jonah 1:5-10, Jonah's decision affected not only his life but also the lives of those around him. Listen, if Jonah had obeyed, he wouldn't have been swallowed by a fish. Your selected considering will have an impact on you and those around you. 

Our decisions influence our words and actions. How many people are suffering around you as a result of your decision-making over God's? May our avaricious desires not rule us. If the message spoke to you, I'd like to lead you in a brief prayer.

"Oh God, I trust you and I know you’ll never mislead me." Today, I've decided to abandon my old ways and embrace yours. Oh Lord, I lived a reckless life. I beg you to forgive me and release me and also, free the people around me. If I'm going in the wrong direction, correct me with love and compassion. Amen!"

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

How to depend on Jesus

The things of this world cannot fill the empty space within us; only Christ can complete us. This embodies for us that we need Jesus more than anything else on this planet. God did not put us here to rely on ourselves, but to rely on him for everything. We can't survive without him, which is why the Bible cautions us not to rely on our own understanding, because our understanding can fail us and our hearts can lead us astray. Physically, we may appear to be capable of doing things on our own, but on the inside, we are slowly dying. I don’t know about you, but if you haven't yet accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, it’s not too late. The Bible encourages us in Jeremiah 33:3 that if we call on God, he will answer us and tell us things we don't know. God is waiting for your call today. He is waiting for you to come to him and ask him to show you the way. Here is a short prayer to seek God: Heavenly Father, please forgive me for all of my transgressions against

How do we allow our past to not define us  

Even if you don't have everything together, rest certain that God sees you as his priceless possession. Your past does not define who you are today. In actuality, from a spiritual viewpoint, who you are today is not determined by your past. It might affect your thoughts, but it doesn't make you who you are. God proclaims our true identity: that we are made in His likeness and in His image, reflecting both the male and female facets of God (according to Genesis 1:26-27).
