Let’s Uninvent Distractions

Prompt me, Jesus,
Nudge me, Lord.
Help me obey
So I can live
In one accord
With Your will.

A nudge from God
Is a lightning rod.
It's His wake-up call
To change your behavior
And follow the Savior.

Let God's nudges
Direct your choices.
Reject the voices
That try to silence them.
Let God nudge you
Here and there
And lead you
Everywhere
He wants you to go.

God has a way of nudging you when He wants you to do something. Obey what His inner guidance is nudging you to do or say. A nudge from God is an invitation for you to experience a demonstration of His presence and reality. Step out of the comfort and false security of your own desires, feelings, and opinions let the current of His Spirit lead and direct you from deep within.

God nudges toward truth (“I am the way, the truth, and the life,”), toward humility (“God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble,”), toward love (“Love your enemies,”), toward peace (My peace I give unto you,”), and toward hope (“Christ in you the hope of glory,).

People pay less attention to God than they think they do. It pays to notice and obey His inner nudges.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
