Doing All the Lord Commands

Scripture Josh 11:15 As the LORD had commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua, and so Joshua did. He left nothing undone of all that the LORD had commanded Moses.

Observation: I’ve done things that my Lord has asked me but I can’t say I left non undone that He commanded me, I can’t even say I did most of what He commanded me. There is nothing He asks me that I can’t do, I just choose to pick and choose what I want to do. I make excuses and pretend God hasn’t spoken to me or guided me, but like a disobedient child I turn my back. God asks very little of me and He has given me the power to do those things that He asks like Joshua, but my laziness overrules what I should be doing.

Application: I want to be a Joshua leaving nothing undone that my Lord commands me to do. When I do what God asks it is always a blessing and I can feel God being pleased. This should be all that I do, what He commands me to do. I’m here as a servant and I need to be serving my master each moment of every day.

Prayer: Lord help this lazy servant and get me serving you. Sunday I have an opportunity to please you as I give my testimony at church. Fill me with the Holy Spirit and direct what you want me to say and bring the people you desire to be there. I’m here only has your servant, may I be pleasing in your sight.
