119:144 The righteousness of thy testimonies [is] everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live.
People can make serious mistakes by walking through the open doors of an
apparent opportunity without consulting the Lord. Sometimes we presume that
since we have taken some steps with God's blessing, all our steps will
receive the same blessing.
Israel's early victories in Canaan under Joshua's leadership were won with
God's direction, but they became an occasion of deception for the men of
Gibeon, who forged a treaty with Israel under false pretenses (Joshua 9).
Yesterday's wisdom doesn't insure that we won't walk in foolishness today.
We must open our hearts to receive God's teaching and corrections each and
every day.
