“Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.”
(Ja. 4:17)
There are many acts of courage but, I believe, none so courageous as a man or woman following through on what God shows them. True, some things are to be kept quiet till God’s bidding; but once bidden we’re to “shout” it from the rooftops. It can be a serious thing not to complete what you know to be from God! Light rejected brings greater darkness. Let us be true to what’s shown us.
I have often said when instructing others, “When you know what God wants you to do, do it! If you don’t, the devil will talk you out of it.” Truly, some of us need the courage of our convictions. For many years now I have prayed for my older preacher/writer son Andrew , that the Lord would show him him what He wants of him; and then he’d have the courage to see it all the way through.
Many, when seeing a small light from underneath the door wait for more light, but none will come. The Bible principle is: if you’re not faithful with a little light, you won’t be with any more, if not true to the limited light you have. If you follow the light you have, you’ll find on the other side of that door there is light that will blind the sun! Follow your light, “In thy light shall we see light,” Psa. 36:9.
“But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.”
(Prov. 4:18)
