Journey with Lee (Day 24 of 31)

Day – 24, January 24

Life’s Passport.

What is a US Passport Book (the “Passport”)? It is the US Department of State’s official book that is initially filled with blank pages. As a US citizen travels abroad to countries and provinces outside of the US, upon entering and existing a foreign country that requires a visa, the Passport must be shown and marked accordingly. This Passport is a country’s device to trace your every move, as you visit their land. 

God has a Passport Book (the “Bible”) that He uses too. His Book has certain requirements its citizens must adhere to as well. With their compliancy, God’s citizens are given rights and privileges, as outlined in the Book. He also warns the non-compliant travelers of consequences if they do not follow the Book.

 

For my Bible readers, do you remember the story of Abram (later God changes his name to Abraham)? God sent him out on a journey without any initial direction, but a simple “Go!” As Abram obeyed, God provided additional instruction. Check this out–God was not only interested in Abram’s obedience, but also He paid close attention to Abram’s character and gauged Abram’s movement according to His tracker, the Book.

When Abram left Haran for this long expedition, he lied before he entered Egypt. The entire time Abram traveled, God tracked his movements, the lies he told and deceitful acts he performed on his journey.

What places have you visited that God withheld His stamp of approval? Did you enter any foreign lands doing illegal activities (i.e. doubtful, fearful, jealous, hate, steal, covetousness, spiteful, revengeful, etc.)?

What illegal stamps are marked on your Passport for the world see? Are there stamps of anger, envy, liar, prideful, resentful and the like on display?
