I Will Follow Jesus. I Refuse To Be Distracted Because My Eyes Are On Him

John_8-12: Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life

Matthew_4-19:And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men

“Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite unto this day, because that he wholly followed the Lord God of Israel.”
Joshua 14:14 (KJV)

The Bible says Caleb wholly followed the Lord. Caleb decided to follow Him fully. In other words, he gave Him his total commitment. He trusted Him with all his heart. Whether he understood it or not did not matter. He just decided: I will follow him and I will keep on following him. Even when I cannot follow him I will trust him. I will follow him and I will refuse to be distracted because my eyes are on him.

Hebrews 12:2 says “…looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith….” Look unto him not onto your circumstance. Your circumstance will cry if it has never be done before. It will shout impossible, no one has ever achieved it. But keep following the Lord. Whether you have seen it happen before or not, whether you know how it will happen or not, follow the Lord completely.

Sometimes I can hear some people say Caleb something is wrong with you, can’t you see this thing is not working? But I also hear Job say I know my redeemer liveth. I will keep on following Him. Though He slays me yet I will trust him. I know He will never leave me nor forsake me. I am persuaded that they that put their trust in Him will never be put to shame and therefore all the days of my life will I wait until my change comes.

You can’t follow the Lord and miss the way. If you follow the Lord you can’t be lost. You can’t be lagging behind, because you are following the real thing. You can’t be following the Lord and be looking behind you wondering whether somebody is going to stab you at the back or not. You are confident that you are safe because you are following him. He knows the way. He knows where all the bombs are planted. He knows where all the ditches and traps are and He knows how to avoid them. All you need do is keep your eyes on Him and follow Him whole heartedly.

The scripture says he that dwelleth in the secret place of the most high shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord He is my refuge and my fortress, my God and in him will I trust, he will deliver me from the snare of the fowler and from the noisome pestilence. He will deliver you from all this things dancing around you because you are abiding under his shadow. So simply keep your eyes are on Him and follow Him wherever He leads you. I declare to you today that you will not see shame. The Lord in whom you have come to trust will come through for you and you will testify. I bless you in the name of the Lord.
