Jeremiah 8:7 ‘Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the judgment of the Lord.’

DAILY READING • Matthew 19:1-15; Numbers 9-10; Ecclesiastes 7

Scientists believe that some birds possess a “global GPS system” that can tell them how to get home from anywhere on Earth.
Recent researches indicate that some bird species are born with migration routes genetically encoded in their brains. In other words they have a kind of inborn inner guidance that leads them when they fly .
The navigational precision displayed by many birds is truly amazing.
Birds can travel for thousands of miles, sometimes cross entire continents, and still return back to the exact same spot where they took off from, without ever losing their way.
Millions of migratory birds make epic journeys between their breeding and wintering grounds every year. The incredible thing is that they return back to the exact place they started their trip from. They return back to the same nests left months ago, to the same tree, same back yard. Some of them in their life span, cover millions of miles, completing some of the longest flights known to science.
For instance, every year, billions of songbirds migrate thousands of miles between Europe and Africa — and then repeat that same journey again, year after year, to nest in exactly the same place that they chose on their first great journey.
Even when these birds are buffeted by winds so much that they’re significantly displaced from their migratory route, they are still able to realign their course.
Though humans have been studying the issue of bird migration for thousands of years, it still remains one of the world’s greatest biological mysteries.
On a long journey, humans need at least a map and a compass to find their way—a map for route and distance, and a compass to stay on course. Yet birds are mysteriously guided in making epic journeys with amazing precision.

Jeremiah 8:7 says ‘Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the judgment of the Lord.’

Prophet Jeremiah, contrasts the wisdom of the birds, who know their appointed time, with the folly of man, who knows not “the judgment of the Lord,”.
The truth is that God has not left man without divine direction in life. Just as God has created birds with a natural guidance, there is supernatural guidance, available to those who are born of God.
As sons of God, we have a major advantage in life; it is the guidance of the Holy Ghost.

Romans 8:14 says, “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.”

It is the heritage of the sons of God to be led by the Spirit of God. Every saved believer is a child of destiny and product of God’s predestination [Romans 8:30].
But it takes the guidance of the Holy Spirit to arrive at our glorious destination.
Believers only suffer losses in life if they refuse to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit.
No matter how smart or knowledgeable we may be, our brain cannot be more accurate than the Holy Spirit.
Our mind can only relate with past and present events, but the Holy Spirit is the One that has access into the future and knows the end from the beginning.
The Spirit shows us things to come and what to do to ascend to our next level of destiny.

John 16:13 says ‘Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.’

To access the revelations of the Spirit, we must come up to a higher spiritual level, because a carnal mind cannot receive the things of God. We must be willing to pay the price of training our spirit man to become sensitive to the voice of the Holy Spirit by maintaining a lifestyle of fervent prayers and indepth study of the Word.
It can be tempting to follow the easy way of guiding ourselves and relying on our physical senses. But there is a way which seems right to a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
When we pay the price of spiritual diligence to seek God’s voice and follow His guidance, He will be our shepherd, leading us to our green pastures in life.
When we commit our lives to the Lord and daily seek His divine direction, we will avoid mistakes and regrets.
Life often presents us with many options and different paths but God alone knows what is best for us. This is why we must seek Him for guidance.
As we commit to living a life of spirituality and dependence on divine guidance, surely, the Holy Spirit will lead us per time into His perfect plans and preordained purposes for us.

PRAYER Lord, Please by Your Spirit, guide me on this journey of destiny. Help me to be willing to pay whatever price it takes, to hear Your clear divine direction to enable me excel in life in Jesus Name.
