as i started my Job almost two and a half years ago ..its been a battle most times to claim this property for God ..! and ive learned much during my tent making ..God opened this door at a time when i prayed for Him to place me were He needed me, 24 hrs later im on a night desk of a seedy motel in a bad area, .watch what you pray for .! as i went to school on the God plan ive failed at some things but feel God has taught me what i needed for His will in my life..so now we have sold out to a new owner and all is up in the air ..i was offerd a job at another property ,a little bump in pay ,closer to home ,not near the issues ive faced here ..but my concern was God did you want me here or at the new property ? i dont want to move to make it easy for me ,pay ,travel wise and peace wise but when God tells me its time to go and not before ..so i asked God one afternoon LORD show me what you want of me ..am i finished here ? as I drove to work that night i see a marquee sign ( its a christian bussiness and God has spoke to me before in scripture they run on it ) in red led lights flashing these words <<<ALL LONG HARD ROADS MUST HAVE AN END.!!.....so i move in a few weeks to my new job post in anticapation of the things of God awaiting me anew on the next leg of my journey here ....Prasie God for answered prayers and that my God is so inventive as to use a marquee of red led lights to speak to me ....My God can speak through many ways .i limit Him Not but believe i serve a creative Lord who not only hears but answers prayers.......Rev
 
For this God is our God forever and ever: He will be our guide even unto death.
Psalm 48:14

@Rev T.S.Perkins

Praise the Lord! You will continue to be richly blessed as you seek the Lords's will in your life.
Will keep you in prayer for your new job brother

Reading your post bought to mind a lovely old hymn

Thy way, not mine, O Lord,
However dark it be;
Lead me by Thine own hand,
Choose out the path for me.

Smooth let it be or rough,
It will be still the best;
Winding or straight, it leads
Right onward to Thy rest.

I dare not choose my lot;
I would not, if I might;
Choose Thou for me, my God,
So I shall walk aright.

Take Thou my cup, and it
With joy or sorrow fill,
As best to Thee may seem;
Choose Thou my good and ill.

Choose Thou for me my friends,
My sickness or my health;
Choose Thou my cares for me
My poverty or wealth.

The kingdom that I seek
Is Thine: so let the way
That leads to it be Thine,
Else I must surely stray.

Not mine, not mine the choice
In things or great or small;
Be Thou my Guide, my Strength
My Wisdom, and my All*

And the LORD shall guide thee continually
Isaiah 58:11



*Horatius Bonar 1857

Brother personally . I would have asked Him to confirm it in my mind to be sure. I learned He will always confirm things . Just as He does in scriptures. That why we never stand on just one scripture.
 
So interesting Rev you should speak on this!! The Lord has been going over some things with me along the same kind of line.( rom 8 :12-17!!) In order to be led by His Spirit, we must always learn how to listen to His Spirit!! amen Nice brother!! Very nice!
 
So now I'm here at the new property ,while on the last one I told people how God placed me there . As I arrived at the new place I met a lady named Shirley who works the breakfast .the joy of The Lord is all over her ,one of the first things she told me was God placed her in that job 18 yrs ago and there is lots of ministry here .! And she welcomed me in the name of The Lord ...I'd say I'm on track and Look froward to what God has in store ....Rev
 
Let the people praise Thee, O God
Psalm 67:5


@Rev T.S.Perkins

Praise the Lord

And may He continually lead and guide you in your life
What wonderful blessings He continually bestows upon us


He leadeth me O blessed thought
Oh words with heavenly comfort fraught
Whatever I do, wherever I be
Still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me

Heartfelt is what I keep feeling. I feel like you put your entire heart in your job and for those around you. god bless
