The Holy Ghost Told Paul No

The Holy Ghost Told Paul No
When a plan fails, the Lord still directs your steps. Paul was “forbidden of the Holy Ghost” in Acts 16:6, and Macedonia opened.

Everybody has had a plan fall through. The ministry that drew a handful, the door that shut when you reached for it. The question is how long you sit in the dust.

Those who recover fast are just as devoted as anyone. They know hanging on tighter never changed an outcome. “A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.”

Paul was “forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia,” and before long the Lord had opened Macedonia. So grieve it, then get back to work.
