Ep. 156: Are You Willing to Ask for Directions?

SHOW NOTES:

In Podcast Episode 156, “Are You Willing to Ask for Directions?” Kim discusses the scriptural admonition to ask the Lord for direction and to be attentive to the Holy Spirit’s voice. In our focal verse for this week, we see David seeking direction from the Lord. Yet, David, just as we do, did not always see the Lord’s direction and make wise choices.

The primary scripture texts for this episode are 2 Samuel 2:1-4a with 1 as the focal verse.

1 “After this, David asked the Lord, “Should I move back to one of the towns of Judah?” “Yes,” the Lord replied. Then David asked, “Which town should I go to?” “To Hebron,” the Lord answered.”

ADDITIONAL VERSES:

6 Next Paul and Silas traveled through the area of Phrygia and Galatia, because the Holy Spirit had prevented them from preaching the word in the province of Asia at that time. 7 Then coming to the borders of Mysia, they headed north for the province of Bithynia, but again the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them to go there. 8 So instead, they went on through Mysia to the seaport of Troas.

9 That night Paul had a vision: A man from Macedonia in northern Greece was standing there, pleading with him, “Come over to Macedonia and help us!” 10 So we decided to leave for Macedonia at once, having concluded that God was calling us to preach the Good News there. (Acts of the Apostles 16:6-10)

5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart;

do not depend on your own understanding.

6 Seek His will in all you do,

and He will show you which path to take. (Proverbs 3:5-6)

8 The Lord says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life.

I will advise you and watch over you. (Psalm 32:8)

8 Let me hear of Your unfailing love each morning,

for I am trusting You.

Show me where to walk,

for I give myself to You. (Psalm 143:8)
