Here is a wise saying worth remembering. Look up before you hook up. By this, I mean that you should always look to God before you make decisions concerning about whom you will agree with and, therefore, what you choose to become a part of. Too many of us are neglectful of this vital opportunity, and thus we suffer from the outcomes of our poor decisions. Psalm 37:23 (NKJV) says, “The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD, And He delights in his way.” As Christians, we have available to us a built-in line of communication directly to the throne of God. It is called prayer. God’s desire is to direct your steps to success, significance and safety. He will always provide guidance, if… you stay open to it. The choice will be yours alone. Make it a habit, a matter of lifestyle, to look up before you hook up. Always seek God, asking Him to speak to your heart, either giving His approval… or delivering a warning. If you will consistently include God in your choices, you will have good success. When God is with you, how can you possibly go wrong? Defer to the Holy Spirit. Then let Him order your steps.
