So many times I have heard people say that they wished they knew the scriptures to speak into lives of friends and loved ones. Maybe their loved one was going through a tough time and needed some encouragement. There is one problem here though... You can't lead someone without first going in front of them. Meaning you can't take them where you haven't been. This being said, you can't take someone through the council of the Word of God if you first don't spend time in it and know it! I am part of a generation that wants to have all the answers, but hasn't spent the time investing in the word! It all comes from the "Law of the Harvest". You must sow if you want to reap! There is no Walmart for scripture answers! You must go into the presence of God Almighty yourself, to be able to lead someone else there! The more time we spend at the foot of the cross, and in the Word and in Prayer, the more we know how to lead others during those tough times. This will also keep us from falling to sin in our own lives. Whether you know it or not, we are all leading someone! So just how and where are you leading them? Just a thought!
Psalm 119:11 (New International Version)
11 I have hidden your word in my heart
that I might not sin against you.
Blessings,
Phillip
