8-6-2009. . . .No Obstruction!
Is there anything or anyone obstructing your view of God? Before giving the obvious standard quick answer, allow for just a moment of thorough examination. Career. . . .Family. . . . Wealth. . . .Material possessions, any one of these things while good, could become an obstruction or worst, an idol! For the prophet Isaiah, the obstruction was king Uzziah. “The year King Uzziah died I saw the Lord! He was sitting on a lofty throne, and the Temple was filled with his glory. (Isa 6:1-2 TLB) His loyalty and service to the King was admirable, but when the king died, Isaiah was able to see the Lord without obstruction. No matter how admirable, honorable, or even what may be a normal part of life, let nothing or no one obstruct you from seeing God as He Is.
Prayer: Lord, my priority desire is to know you and to see you clearly without obstruction or distraction. Draw me nearer to thee daily. Amen!
Deut 4:23-24. . . .Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image, or the likeness of any thing, which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee. For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God. KJV
