GOD-TRACKING IS LIVING EVERY MOMENT CONFIDENT IN HIS SOVEREIGN TIMING
by Dudley Anderson trACker 559 The e-Devotional helping to keep you on-track Published through www.godtracker.co.uk 06 November 2015 Dear God-tracker GOD-TRACKING IS LIVING EVERY MOMENT CONFIDENT IN HIS SOVEREIGN TIMING "The fall of Jericho could be described by a natural disaster," said the commentator in a TV documentary I was watching about Joshua's conquest of the city. "The Jordan Rift Valley runs closer to Jericho than the San Andreas Fault does to San Francisco," he went on to say. "In all likelihood, the walls of Jericho collapsed because of an earthquake." Very often science tries to argue away the supernatural acts of God with natural conclusions. However, as feasible as the scientific conclusion seemed to be in this instance, as I watched, I became even increasingly impressed by the biblical account. If Jericho was breached by a natural earthquake then it's even more amazing how Joshua was compelled by supernatural timing to blast the ram's horn at the exact moment that the earth would shake. We need to remember that God is sovereign, his timing is perfect and his ends are supreme! Through Isaiah the Holy Spirit said, "The former things I declared of old. As they went out from my mouth, and I announced them, suddenly I did them and they came to pass." And he said, "I am he; I am the first, and I am the last. My hand laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand spread out the heavens; when I call to them, they stand forth together." The creator God we serve is all-knowing, all-powerful and ever-present. Here he is called the first and the last. If this is true then God exists in the past, the present and the future, all at the same time! Therefore, God is superior to time. In other words, God holds time in his hands. The timing of every event in the universe is designed and orchestrated by God Almighty. God knows your beginning from your end and everything in-between! He was there when you took that first breath and he will be there when you breathe your last. Your God knows every moment and every movement of your life. Is it any wonder the scriptures tell us to acknowledge him in all our ways? If it is true that God prompted a mighty earthquake at precisely the moment the Israelites blew their trumpets in his praise after walking around Jericho 7 times in 7 days then I know that this same God can move your world according to his perfectly timed plans for your life. Rest in his sovereignty over your today and his perfect will for your tomorrow. Try not to fathom God with intellect. Rather fathom him with faith. Commit your moment by moment to him and it will amaze you how all things both good and bad will work out for your good, always! God-tracking is living every moment confident of his sovereign timing Every blessing Dudley It's all in the Book Joshua 6 Isaiah 48:1-8 Isaiah 48:12-13 Proverbs 3:5-6 If trACker has helped you track God's plans for your life then please RECOMMEND trACker it to a friend.

God is enough!" --- Hannah Smith Don't Give Up, Look Up! Look up and Fix Your Eyes on Jesus! I put my trust in your timing for every event in my life Pray "Dear Lord I realise now that my times are in your hands. I believe that, if I acknowledge you in all my ways then you will direct the timing of my paths. Therefore, I believe that all things good or bad in my life will work out according to your will for my good. So I put my trust in your timing for every event in my life. I commit my relationships, my work and my recreation to you. I commit my present and my future to you, and thank you for your hand on my past. Help me to rest assured that you will orchestrate every moment of my life according to the plans you know you have for me. Amen."
