Stop and Go With the Spirit - Acts 16_6-10

“What do we get from Paul? We can't control God. We can't control God. He has his own plans, and we must be pliable. Because he is always reliable. Campbell Morgan put it this way. I like how he wrote this. That invasion of Europe was not in the mind of Paul, but was evidently in the mind of the Spirit. What isn't in your mind right now about your future, but is in the mind of the Spirit? And one of the hard things about this is God uses different ways of leading us. We all want what the call, I want the vision. Give me a nice beautiful vision. I can believe it, and hold on to God calls me to that vision. We love that idea. All give me the Macedonian call. We don't want the blocks that he gives us first, negatively to all of our good ideas before he gives us the vision. God uses negative and positive ways to direct us. We have to rely on the Spirit to guide us.”
