Where are you seeking direction from the Lord?

As we round out summer and start looking toward fall, it’s a natural time to look ahead, make plans, and ask for clarity from the Lord.

This week, we will seek direction from the Lord through a verse in Jeremiah. God invited his people to observe where they were and ask some questions. He would answer them – as he will answer us.

Listen in and ask God to help you notice where he is leading.

So Much More: Scripture Meditation (Lectio Divina)

Seeking Direction | Meditation on Jeremiah 6:16

This guided Scripture meditation is in Psalm 37 using Lectio Divina.

Waiting on God is hard. This Psalm reminds us that God will act on our behalf – in his timing and in his ways.

It also reminds us to not get caught up in comparison. It will only agitate us, and nothing good comes from this.

So, take a deep breath and allow the Lord to guide you into this meditation in Psalm 37. I believe he has something just for you.

 

Here’s some links I discussed in the podcast:

Listen to another meditation on Psalm 37 from the Summer Series 2023 here

 

The passages we meditated on is as follows:

Psalm 37:5-9, CSB

5 Commit your way to the Lord;

trust in him, and he will act,

6 making your righteousness shine like the dawn,

your justice like the noonday.

7 Be silent before the Lord and wait expectantly for him;

do not be agitated by one who prospers in his way,

by the person who carries out evil plans.

8 Refrain from anger and give up your rage;

do not be agitated—it can only bring harm.

9 For evildoers will be destroyed,

but those who put their hope in the Lord

will inherit the land.

The passages we meditated on is as follows:

Isaiah 43:16–19, NIV

16 This is what the Lord says—

he who made a way through the sea,

a path through the mighty waters,

17 who drew out the chariots and horses,

the army and reinforcements together,

and they lay there, never to rise again,

extinguished, snuffed out like a wick:

18 “Forget the former things;

do not dwell on the past.

19 See, I am doing a new thing!

Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?

I am making a way in the wilderness

and streams in the wasteland.
