Trusting God With the Unexpected

   Do you feel the shifting?  Transitional movement and unexpected, so-called, intrusions to our comfort zone... God is moving on our behalf.  God is shifting things around for you today, and...
...letting circumstances work in your favor.  Do not ignore Him.  Is it too much to need or expect God to move in our lives?  Of course not.  Change is not always welcomed without a hint of tension or fear of the unexpected; yet when you trust the Lord, you quickly learn how to take Him by the hand and just take things in stride.  You LEARN to walk things out, God's way.  We want to 'work' things out; God wants us to 'walk' things out.
   The people of God have been experiencing a fresh, heightened level of awareness of the Lord's willingness to intervene.  To "do something".  We often feel God does not hear us, or God does not care; perhaps our "need" is not as important as the needs of others, we think.  We even fall into the trap of believing if God cared, He would do something, anything, to get us out of situations. 
   How easily we forget it is in the very center of these "situations" that God is bringing about the change we need.  We do not always agree with His methods or timeframe, but one thing is for certain: God will come through for you!
   It is one of the most powerful, strategic things you can do, when you put God first in all things; suddenly He begins to move in your life.  This positions you to receive.  As the Lord equips you to walk in the blessings of being His child, you surely learn more about faith-walking, and about what some call 'blind' trust.  For me, 'blind' trust' is just another way of saying, "I don't have to know what lies ahead; I just have to know God is with me and God is for me". 
   Is there sudden, unexplained movement in your life?  There should be.  Open your life up to all the incredible life changing shifts ordered of the Lord.  The Scriptures reveal in the book of Romans 8:28, that "all things work together for good to those who love God and are called according to His purpose".  Whether you feel that way or not, it is the Word of God.  Cooperate with God's plan and path for you, and you will see great days ahead. 
   When you come to understand this priceless principle, you will experience the immeasurable favor of God... favor with God and man (Luke 2:52).  Will you trust God with the unexpected circumstances that are occuring in your life?  You will not be disappointed!  Invite the Spirit of the Lord to bring about the HOLY GHOST INVASIONS we so desperately need. 
   The Lord is a wall of fire all around you; the glory in your midst (Zechariah 2:5)
