Did you know that it is exciting to have God direct your steps! Did you know that God will give you Divine Direction? It is exciting and sometimes it is a little bit scary! Why is it scary? It is because we don’t want to fail. It is because we realize that we must give up control! We must say to God…Ok, God, I will do what you want me to do. I will go where you want me to go! I will marry who you want me to marry. I will be who you want me to be! I am totally surrendering my life to you! Let me tell you this…when we get to that place…THAT…is when we learn to walk out our faith!

Did you know that you can walk in victory? Did you know that you do not have to live in defeat! Did you know that the human body is not made to live in defeat and despair? Our bodies breakdown when we are defeated, depressed, and in living in despair! Now, I am not saying that you don’t have difficult days or weeks! We all have them! What I am saying…is that God has created you to walk in victory! You and I suffer and struggle…and we will face adversity…however…when we face difficulty…we can still have victory in our hearts and minds! I am not talking about some kind of fakeness…or plastic smiles…or positive thinking! I am talking about down in the depth of your being…down in the depths of your mind…you know that God is leading you…He is directing you…to victory! You know that you are more than a conqueror! You know that nothing will separate you from the love of God!

Now, let me talk to you about the title of this message. Divine Direction: GO or NO? The question is Go or No? Here is the big idea of this message is. It is our mindset in the way we approach the will of God… or receiving Divine Direction! I have observed many, people who love God…yet...they have a “NO” mindset when it comes to receiving DIVINE DIRECTION. What is a NO mindset? It is when we automatically assume that God is telling us NO! That God’s first answer is NO! God…should I change jobs? NO! Should I get married? NO! Should I go on a mission trip? NO! Should I teach a class? NO! Should I serve in a ministry? NO! Here is the problem…it is very subtle…if God does not give us a clear and definite yes…then we won’t do anything. As a matter of fact…most people use two phrases that imply a NO mindset…and most are not even aware of it. What are the two phrases? (1) God is not calling me…or is God calling you? (2) God is not leading me…is God leading you…or “I don’t feel led.”
We say things like I don’t feel called or I don’t feel led. God is not leading me to…teach, change jobs, get involved…you fill in the blank…with your situation!
Now…what if we approached it from a GO mindset? What if I said…God…I am going to change jobs…unless I hear a no! I am going to teach a class…unless I hear a no! I am going on a mission trip…UNLESS you tell me no!
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Just think of what would be done for the Lord…if we developed a Go mindset…instead of a NO mindset!

This morning we are beginning a series I am really excited about! We are going to learn about Divine Direction! Let me ask you a few questions:
1. How do you make your decisions…especially the really tough decisions? Do you just the best you can?
2. Are you being led by the Spirit?
3. Do you believe it hard to know God’s will for your life?
4. Is God asking you to do something that seems to hard for you…maybe you don’t feel like…you can do it?
5. How do you know if you are following your own desires…or if you are following God’s Divine Direction?
