Making Good Decisions

Scripture:

Exodus 28:30  "Also put the Urim and the Thummim in the breastpiece, so they may be over Aaron's heart whenever he enters the presence of the Lord.  Thus Aaron will always bear the means of making decisions for the Israelites over his heart before the Lord".

Observation:

In this scripture, God designed a way for Aaron to always make right decisions.  He put the breastpiece and Urim and Tummim over his heart to lead him into making good decisions.  He wore these when he went into the presence of the Lord to give him the ability to lead well.

Application:

Decisions determine your destiny.  Good decisions are crucial in life and leadership.  God gave Aaron a Urim and Thummim to help him make good decisions.  He gave us His very own Spirit to lead us into all truth and to show us things to come.  He gave us everything we need in order to make great decisions.  We must come into His presence, with clean hearts, and ask for His direction.  He will guide us.

Prayer:

Father, let Your Spirit guide me as clearly as that Urim and Thummim guided Aaron.  Help me to come into the holy place and meet with You so that I can have clear direction and make decisions that are right in Your eyes.  Let me be led by Your Spirit and not my own mind.

Your Son,
Jeff
