WE SHOULD BE MOVED BY GOD

2 Chronicles 18:31 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him; and God moved them from him.
 
We should pray for God to remove the obstacles that keep us from serving Him.  The obstacles are many and sometimes they are so overwhelming that we can't work our way around them on our own.  Sometimes calling out to God for Him to remove the obstacles is the only way.  God doesn't want anything standing in the way of our serving Him.  You have to be careful when you ask God to remove an obstacle you might be asking Him to remove an opportunity.
 
We should ask God to move our enemies. You notice that I didn't say remove them.  It is imperative that we pray for our enemies and strive to win them to the Lord. If we pray for God to move them and to change their hearts they will no longer be our enemies but will become our Brothers and Sisters in Christ.
 
We should pray for God to move in our own hearts and give us a burden for the lost and a burning desire to serve Him better.  When God moves us it is always in the right direction.
