Devotion
Check Your Impulse
Psalm 103:1 (CSB) My soul, bless the Lord, and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
When you go to see a doctor, a nurse takes your vital signs to check and make sure that your body systems are functioning properly. If something isn’t right with your pulse, the doctor examines you to find out what’s going on with your heart. This same process works as it relates to your impulses. Every inclination that you’re prompted to take action on isn’t necessarily a Divine one. But when you pause with that impulse and consult with the Master Physician first, He can help you to discern if He is prompting you to do something – or if what you have the urge to do doesn’t necessarily have a purpose or value for His Kingdom works. The next time you get a holy itch to do something in particular that will bless the Lord, allow yourself time to seek His confirmation that it is in His will for you to do it.
