[S] Genesis 13:10 --
Lot lifted up his eyes and saw all the valley of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere- this was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah-like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt as you go to Zoar.
[O] Lot's initial actions bring me back memory of how I involved myself in God's ministry by first seeing thing with my own eyes first. I so naturally took the lad of assessing the situation and then just tried to get God's approval after that. This was so contrasting to what Abraham did by relying on God by giving his nephew the first choice. Even though Abraham ended up with less fertile land God nevertheless worked through to fulfill His plans.
[A] As I am involved with ministry at church I must make Abraham's approach the principle method because once I try to help God I will miserably fail it. So stay humble and let Him work out His plans through my honoring Him while I let Him take te lead in looking out for me.
[P] Dear God, let me not get in Your ways in the sake of doing Your ministry. Your ways are indeed higher than all that I can do. in Jesus' name. Amen.
