#soap # Ezekiel 38 ## Title: Live Confidently ## Scripture: (Ezekiel 38:7) “‘Be ready and stay ready, you and all your companies assembled around you, and be a guard for them. (NET) ## Observation: God is telling them to be ready to move forward when He says. When God tells you that it’s time, you can be confident that He has already made a way through any difficulty. This can be difficult to understand because God does not often speak to us the way He did through Ezekiel straight to the people. This is why we must know His Word. Through His Word, He will guide us and help us see when He is opening or closing a door in our lives. This is called walking by faith. It is not a blind faith. As we come to know the Lord more and more by reading His Word, we begin to see His handiwork all around us. This gives us the ability to live confidently. ## Application: Know God by knowing His Word. Then, walk into every day looking for Him. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for loving us the way You do.
