The difference in very good and God’s Best is massive. Walking in His Best means you will also have His Power to do what He desires.
The Holy Spirit has shown me this important truth as I have served God over the years.
Satan will offer you something VERY GOOD to keep you from getting GOD’S BEST. He knows that when you receive God’s Best you will also be able to walk in God’s Power.
Many believers in Christ don’t seek God or read the Bible enough to know much about Biblical truth. They depend on the church, TV preachers, or other Christians to tell them truth.
Because of this, they don’t know much about what the Bible says. Those we think may have a lot of knowledge could be misled. Or they could be speaking more from their own opinion rather than real truth.
The fact is, it takes time and effort to study the Bible and develop a close relationship with God. And you must have this to KNOW if you are following real truth or what another thinks is truth.
In order to receive God’s Best, you must have a close relationship with Him to learn to hear Him when He speaks. His voice is usually quiet, so you must make it a priority to seek Him to hear clearly.
There is a huge difference between getting very good and having God’s Absolute Best for your life. And this won’t be the same for each person. God can see your future, and knows what you are capable of accomplishing with His help.
He never wants you to settle for “very good” when you can have something so much better. But Satan will be happy for you to settle for something that looks awesome to make you think you have chosen the best thing.
Absolute Best is where the real power lies in your walk with God. And you won’t be able to have His power if you settle for anything less.
Satan is well aware of this fact and will work overtime to keep you from seeing this truth.
- Satan will try to tempt you with something you are already good at and will be able to do in your own power. And he will make it look like an awesome opportunity.
- God calls you to do things that you are not capable of doing in your own power. He wants to work through you and get all the glory. If you can’t do it in your own power, you won’t be tempted to try to take the glory for what God has done through you.
God works in ways that you haven’t usually thought of. And His ways are always fresh and invigorating.
What a difference it makes to do what God wants using His Power.
