Discerning Road Blocks
TGIF Today God Is First Volume 2 by Os HillmanSaturday,
November 22 2008

"You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, youwill receive what he has promised" (Heb 10:36-37).

How do you know when God has placed obstacles in your path to protectyou or that Satan is hindering God's purposes in your affairs?

I was in California traveling four hours to a speaking engagement whenterrible fires had broken out in Southern California and many of thehighways were being shut down. Such was the case about an hour into myjourney. I had to detour to a small town and was questioning whether Ishould turn around and go back. I stopped at a convenience store. Awoman pumping gas next to me said the interstate was closed down aheadand if I was going north I would never get there and even if I did getthere I'd have difficulty getting back.

Suddenly, fear struck me with the prospects of being stranded in astrange place. I quietly prayed, asking the Lord whether this was awarning for me to turn back or Satan's hindrance. I went into theconvenience store to inquire about a map. While I was standing there aman walked up to me and said, "Where are you trying to go?" I told himmy dilemma and he explained that the interstate was open just north ofwhere we were and that he had to go to this exact spot and would beglad to guide me there. He took me through all sorts of side roads invery unfamiliar areas. I would never have gotten there by myself, norwould I have made the attempt.
We came to the interstate ramp just above where the fires were. Hewaived as he sent me on my way. I had no more trouble. I arrived atthe luncheon on time and ministered to the businessmen.

I often look at that situation and wonder if God sent his angel tolead me to where I was to go. Immediately after I had prayed at thatconvenience store - the man approached me and gave me the answer.

Do you have a situation that is difficult to discern whether God isprotecting you or Satan is hindering you? Ask God to show you.
