Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional for Today 1st August 2024: Message
Dave and I regularly need to hear from God about many things. We need to hear from Him about how to handle people, circumstances, and numerous events and specific situations.
Our constant prayer is, “What should we do about this? What should we do about that?” It seems a hundred things happen every week in which Dave and I have to be of quick understanding and make God-driven decisions.
If we don’t obey God on Monday, our week can be in chaos on Friday. Therefore, we are determined that we are not going to live in disobedience. Many people are concerned about the specific will of God for their lives, wondering what He wants them to do.
For example: “Lord, should I take this job, or do you want me to take another job? Do You want me to do this, or do You want me to do that?”

I believe God wants to give us the specific direction we long for, but He is even more concerned about our obedience to His general will for our lives, which we find in His Word—things like being thankful at all times in every situation, never complaining, always being content, displaying the fruit of the Spirit, and forgiving those who hurt or disappoint us.
If we are not obeying the guidelines He has already given us in Scripture, we will have difficulty hearing what He has to say about His specific will for us. As you endeavor to hear God more and more clearly and to follow His will for your life, remember to make a priority of knowing and obeying His general will by staying rooted in His Word. Then, you can hear Him more easily when He speaks to you specifically.
Prayer for the Day
Father, please guide me in every decision I make and every situation I find myself in today. Help me to obey Your will and clearly discern Your voice, amen.
