THEY HAVE NOT ASKED MY ADVICE

EDIFICATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL
SATURDAY, 7 NOVEMBER 2026

God should not be sidelined in any decision of your life.
In Isaiah 30:1-7, God said the Israelites had not asked His advice or counsel. They wanted to go down to Egypt to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh and trust in the shadow of Egypt.
When you shift your gaze away from God, expecting help from man or other gods, shame and reproach will be the outcome. "Therefore the strength of Pharaoh shall be your shame, and trust in the shadow of Egypt shall be your humiliation" — Isaiah 30:3.
God is not against you receiving help from man — after all, if He will help you, He will use humans. But you should not be the one focusing on someone to help you. Focus on God rather!
If your focus is on God, He will decide who to use to meet your need, and the glory will go to Him, not to the person. God's glory should not be given to another (Isaiah 42:8).
Today, ask yourself: What is your personal "Egypt" that you run to for safety before going to God? Is there a plan you have already decided on without asking God to direct you?
Focus on God rather!
