Predictability…
There was a joke told during WWII. Two assassins planned to kill Adolf Hitler, who was known for being punctual. So they stationed themselves in the right spot waiting for the right moment. Five minutes go by, and there’s no sign of him… ten minutes, twenty minutes, thirty minutes, and still no sign of him. Finally, one of the assassins turns to the other and says, “This isn’t like Hitler at all. He’s never this late.” To which the other replies, “Gee, I hope nothing happened to him.”
Predictability is not a good thing in warfare. If the enemy knows what you’re going to do, you become an easier target – so, too, in your spiritual walk. If your walk with God is stuck in a rut – it’s to the enemy’s advantage. So don’t’ let that happen. Always seek to grow and step into the new.
Break out of the old routine. Open up your walk to change. Take a step of faith. For those who are led by the Spirit walk in the newness of life. And those who walk in the newness of life are the enemy’s worst nightmare.
We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. Romans 6:4
Today, follow the leading of the Spirit and don’t be predictable or fall for the enemies schemes.
Walk daily with God at your side!
Love always,
Ed
