DAY 3 — MOVE YOUR FEET
DAY 3 — MOVE YOUR FEET
READ: Acts 9:15–17
“So Ananias went and found Saul.”
— Acts 9:17
REFLECT
Those six words changed history.
So Ananias went.
He had questions.
He had fears.
He knew the risks.
And then he moved.
There comes a point when faith has to become action.
We can pray for direction. We can ask for wisdom. We can talk about what God might want us to do.
Eventually, though, we have to move.
Ananias didn’t receive every detail about what would happen with Saul. He simply obeyed what God had already shown him.
And as he stepped forward, more of God’s plan became clear.
STEPPING OUT IN FAITH BRINGS CLARIFICATION OF GOD’S PLAN.
Sometimes we want God to show us the entire path before we take the first step.
But often God gives enough light for the next step.
Then another.
Then another.
So don’t ask God to guide your footsteps if you’re not willing to move your feet.
ASK YOURSELF
What has God already made clear that I haven’t acted on?
Am I waiting for more direction when God has already shown me my next step?
PRAY
Lord, give me courage to move when You lead. Keep me from using uncertainty as an excuse for inactivity. Show me my next step and give me the faith to take it. Amen.
TAKE A STEP
Don’t solve everything today.
Just identify your next faithful step—and take it.
