STAY IN YOUR LANE

STAY IN YOUR LANE AND THE LORD WILL HELP YOU STEER CLEAR, AROUND OR THROUGH ALL THE MESS AND CONFUSION. GOD LOVES ME JUST BECAUSE HE CAN, HE WAS, IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE, LOVE.

“And even though Yashuah is our rock to go to in times that are good and times of trouble, we will always have a pebble in our shoe to keep us on our toes. Who or what is your pebble?” (2 Corinthians 12:8-10 (NLV) 8 I asked the Lord three times to take it away from me. 9 He answered me, “I am all you need. I give you My loving-favor. My power works best in weak people.” I am happy to be weak and have troubles so I can have Christ’s power in me. 10 I receive joy when I am weak. I receive joy when people talk against me and make it hard for me and try to hurt me and make trouble for me. I receive joy when all these things come to me because of Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong).

Until the time of Yashuah’s return we are to make ourselves accessible to Him, working according to His will and to be mindful and helpful to others.  We do this by getting our hopes up in Yashuah and continue to always look for righteous ways to be of service to Him and others. In doing so, He will always direct our path and give us grace for the place we find our self in, and for the extensiveness of our calling. (Ephesians 4:7 7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ). Therefore, we must learn to stay in our lane, provided by YHWH, no matter what is going on around us. It will get hard, but we must remain steadfast. And the Lord, Who is our Shepard, will help us to steer clear, go around or through (as much as He deems possible; we are going to have to endure some troubles, trials and tribulations), the worldly mess that is set before us. If we put our trust in Him, He will show us what is conducive to the positive outcome of our journey and what is not.  All of us are aware that some things just do not need to be in our lives. But to know and accept this truth, we must go to Yashuah to find out what is or is not needed. It is well with our soul to remain in the arms of our LORD and maintain the peace He has given us, while the world falls apart around us. (James 1:12 12 Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him).

Now, do not get me wrong. We are not to hide our heads in the sand, as an ostrich does, and pretend that all is well, and nothing is wrong. But we, as the children of the Most High, are to seek and obtain the wisdom, knowledge and understanding that is given by YHWH, through Yashuah, as how to maintain our lane and still respond to any situation, circumstance or even condition (as today), in a righteous manner.  Learning to be proactive in our life’s journey will help us to be a light to others but, we must stay in our lane (the path which Yashuah has chosen for you) and respond, positively, to the work you were ordained to do.  (Psalm 119:1-9 1 Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord. 2 Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart. 3 They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways. 4 Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently. 5 O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes! 6 Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy commandments. 7 I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments. 8 I will keep thy statutes: O forsake me not utterly. 9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word).

Yes, believe it or not we all have a purposeful ministry to perform while here on earth. That is why we must maintain a constant forward motion in our own designated lane, with our Lord and Saviour and the Holy Spirit leading us all the way.  Some have ministries that are a little more in your face while others or behind the scenes, but all gifts, given by YHWH, are equally important and equally necessary.  Therefore, we must stay in our lane. Because when we choose to get out of our lane and get into someone else’s or try and make up another one for self, it is usually a disastrous move: a place where YHWH has not intended for you to be: it throws you off balance. (1 Peter 4:10-11 10 As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen).

And for heaven sake, do not allow some else, who has no idea or knowledge of what YHWH, through Yashuah, has called you to do, talk you out of your lane into theirs.  People, who have no objectives or goals, in their life, will do this. They are like leeches and will suck all the life out of your hopes, goals, and dreams because they have none of their own and are not motivated to get some. This, in my opinion,  stems from the fact that they have not taken the time to study the word, so they can hear from YAH: When all they have to do is ask as to what they are to do and for what they want, and it will be given. Know that is you do not ask, and you will attach yourselves to someone else’s’ calling and want to own it as your own. (Matthew 7:7-8 7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened).

So, the only way we are to enjoy life, as Yashuah intended and do not become entangled in unnecessary, worldly mess is to stay in our own lane of life so that we may reap the benefits and rewards, stored up for us. To go about doing YAH’s will, study His word, and walk in His way will not be easy but it will be worth it.  We may have to go at it with Yashuah as our guide; with me and Him we make up a majority.  Even though it seems we are alone, when all our friends and even family deserts us, we are not. But we must do it afraid: moving forward hand in hand with our LORD. We can and will always find a way in Yashuah because He is The Way, The Truth, The Light and The Life; with all those, we know that He is the One to keep out in front of us, as well as in every part of our life. 

A SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS IT ALL – Psalm 23

1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
