  1. Salom. Dear listeners, we are Oscar and Glory or Simnza

  2. of Harvest Chapel International Dayamico Mercy. It is our privilege

  3. this morning to welcome you to today's morning glory devotion.

  4. We are your facilitators. Today we bring you part two

  5. of our three part series titled Driving with God. Three

  6. Mirrors for the Journey. Part two is subtitled beside Mirrors

  7. seeing blind spots before they cause a crash. I repeat

  8. a side mirrors seeing blind spots before the course I crash. Please,

  9. let's commit ourselves to God in prayer. Our dear Lord

  10. and Master Christ, Jesus, thank you for the gift of

  11. life which you have given us this morning. Thank you,

  12. oh God, for bringing us together to learn at your feet.

  13. Your word has said that where two or three are

  14. got it together in your name, you are there in

  15. their midst. Well. Thank you for your word which has

  16. brought us light, life and understanding. Let your word bear

  17. alarm to our feet and light our path so that

  18. we may constantly continue to walk in your way in

  19. the mighty name of Jesus, and pray Amen. Our main

  20. scripture that's taken from Some one three nine verse twenty three,

  21. twenty four, and I read search me, o God, and

  22. know my hat, Try me and know my thoughts, and

  23. see if there be any grievous way in me, and

  24. lead me in the way of lasting Amen. One of

  25. the most dangerous places to be in on the road

  26. is beside a heavy goods vehicle. That reason is simple.

  27. You are in the blind spot of the driver and

  28. he cannot see you in his side few mirrors. You

  29. could also be driving straight with a motorbike ride beside you.

  30. You will not see it if you want to change

  31. your lane unless you check your side mirror. If you

  32. change lanes without checking the side, you'll crash. We have

  33. blind spots in a character too. These are the pride

  34. that we don't see, a tone of voice, or our selfishness.

  35. And if we don't check these or crash our relationships,

  36. our ministry and our peace. God has given us two

  37. side mirrors. Mirror number one is his Holy Spirit, who,

  38. among other things, is God's internal warning system. This is

  39. confirmed in John sixteen thirteen, which reads, when the Spirit

  40. of truth comes, it will guide you into all truths.

  41. The Holy Spirit is that quiet restraint on you that

  42. you feel in your spirit before you send out that

  43. hash wars up, before you cut corness at work and

  44. gossip about a boss's wife, do you feel a certain

  45. pause and a kind of unease within new the one

  46. you try to explain away us, Oh, we were just

  47. having a conversation, beloved. That's God's side mirror flashing a

  48. warning about a danger in your blind spot. Our main

  49. scripture Some one three nine, which says again, search me, o, God,

  50. and know my heart, Try me and know my thoughts,

  51. and see if there be any grievous way in me,

  52. and lead me in the way of a lasting was

  53. prayed by God's servant, King David. He prayed this from

  54. the bottom of his hat because he knew he couldn't

  55. see clearly by himself. In like manner, we need the

  56. Holy Spirit to scan as daily. We have this privilege

  57. of the Holy Spirit scanning as daily and exposing our

  58. blind sports to us when we dedicate ourselves to a

  59. daily devotional and prayer life. But that's discipline we are

  60. driving through life. Blind miror number two is the godly

  61. people who function as God's external warning system. Proverbs twenty seven,

  62. verse seventeen emphasizes that ion charpains ion, and one man

  63. charpaens another. Feather Galicians, chapter six, Verse one says, brothers,

  64. if anyone is caught in any transgression, you, who are spiritual,

  65. should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Feather James

  66. five sixteen admonishes us to confess your sins to one

  67. another and pray for one another that you may be healed.

  68. God never meant for us to drive along in life's

  69. journey without guidance. He puts our pastors, godly spouses, Christian friends,

  70. and parents in our life to say, says, I've noticed

  71. you are bitter? Can we talk about it? Or? Brother,

  72. that decision you've taken is not the best? Can you repent?

  73. It's uncomfortable for about thirty seconds? Yes, but it saves

  74. us three years of pain. Any driver who says I

  75. don't need sight mirrors is arrogant, and likewise the Christian

  76. who says I am not accountable is in danger. We

  77. need to ask the Holy Spirit to show us the

  78. dangers in our blind spots daily and accept godly rebukes

  79. and correction in good faith from our Christian family. Humility

  80. as a spiritual fruit helps us accept and correct our attitude.

  81. May we remain sensitive to the promptings of the Holy Spirit,

  82. as he supposes are blind supports to us. Shall we

  83. take us our memory Verse Isaac, Chapter thirty, verse twenty one,

  84. which reads, and your ears shall hear a word behind

  85. you saying this is the way walking it when you

  86. turn to the right, or when you turn to the left. Amen, Beloved,

  87. Thank you and God bless you for tuning in and

  88. joining today's morning Glory devotion. Please continue to remain tuning

  89. into Radio ACI, to remain in an atmosphere of worship,

  90. and to enjoy a selection of godly music and teachings

  91. throughout the day. Join us at the same time tomorrow shalom. Amen.
