David didn't wake up in the morning and think, "I think I'll kill a giant today." He was just taking lunch to his big brothers. Oh, and he happened to take his sling--that thing he had spent countless hours out in the field perfecting so he could defend his sheep.
I wonder if Esther and Mordecai were wondering if they should have returned to Israel after the exile instead of staying in Persia. I have no doubt that people they knew had returned. Were they thinking, "What are we doing here in Susa when we could be in Jerusalem?"
For Ruth and Boaz, it was a divine appointment.
For David, the same. And who knows when you might need that "sling"?
For Esther and Mordecai, they were exactly where God needed them.
You have a day full of divine appointments. No accidental encounters are on your schedule for today. None. Ready? Expectant? God has filled up your planner for today.
You know that skill--that talent--that God has given you. That thing you've been practicing over and over and over again. One never knows when a "sling" will be needed to enhance His glory--to win a "battle." Prepared? Expectant? God has filled up your planner for today.
Ever wonder why God has you where He has you? You're where He needs you. He has made His plans to use you in this place to do His will to glorify His Name, to do good for His people. Content? Expectant? God has filled up your planner for today.
This will not be a day of chance. Ask God to give you divine insight. Be sensitive to the Spirit's prompts.
"Open my way that I may bring trophies of grace to Christ, my King"
"Silently now I wait for Thee, ready my God, Thy will to see; open my eyes, illumine me, Spirit divine!"
Ready? Expectant? You have a full day ahead of you--a day of divine appointments.
It is never "just another day."
