Foggy Situations - Uplifting Message of Encouragement, Trust in God

Faith and Leadership ... He leads, we follow.

God gives you His approval to go and directs to cross over.
Starting out there’s great enthusiasm, expectation and zeal.
Then you hit the fog, vision and clarity are impaired and
negative emotions rise to fuel reactions of doubt. What do you
do? …

Stop and refuse to go any further.
Go a different direction.
Keep going forward.

Frustration, panic and fear are common enemies of God’s
Word. Our mind is just naturally use to relying on cues from
our five senses, especially eyesight. Functioning by faith and
obedience to God’s Word transcends our natural realm to fuel
reactions of belief in His promises. Faith doesn't dismiss the
existence of the fog, it sees through it, zooming in and holding
on to the realm and commands of God which are infallible.
Knowing by faith that the fog itself is subject to God, it too rolls
in and out on His command.

The challenge is not the obstacle, for He already knew the fog
would be there. The real test question is …

Will we obey, trusting in His Word, in spite of everything
else?
Will we grumble, doubting His leadership and not
complete the task?
Will He need to find someone else to complete the job,
giving them the blessing instead?

God’s leadership has the foresight to guide and direct, as well
as, the power to influence people and situations according to
His purpose. His track record for doing so dates back to the
beginning of time.
