Recently, I felt Holy Spirit nudge me to reach out to another person in their time of need. It was not a huge, magnanimous thing it was an everyday need that another person had in their life. I will not go into detail of what that need was but I will share with you that the next day the confirmation was there that I truly heard from God in my action. He gives us opportunities all the time are you in tune to hearing them and then responding? I mentioned to a person that I wanted to give what I gave to them as a gift and it was not to be paid back. The response touched my heart I just knew it was God allowing me to reach out to another with the love of Jesus in my heart to bless another. When I saw tears in their eyes and then sharing what they did there is no denying that God was all about that. That is who I am, that is what I live for...to bless God's people.
Today, another opportunity presented itself early this morning. As I was pumping gasoline I felt a nudge to encourage an older woman that was also pumping her gasoline. I spoke brief words of encouragement to her and then she shared with me a bit. It was all in the initial stepping out in faith words spoken that carried the conversation another direction. It was in the conversation that she shared how she prays for our nation and how they need the prayer. At that moment a light bulb went off in my mind and I shared it with her I need to pray for our nation, president, congress and senate. That is exactly what I did in the car driving to my destination. I prayed in the Holy Spirit and it was good to pray for others just because I was willing to step out in faith to another. I was then able to receive insight as to what I should do in my drive time today. God is faithful and forever constant if you allow Him to be in your life.
I had another opportunity today to try and step out in my own strength and I heard Holy Spirit give me a check in my spirit to not step out when He did not call me to go there. Sometimes we can get carried away with out emotions and it is not God nudging but your heart wanting to please others and help them. When He does not nudge and you are doing the movement then that is the time to seek Him and ask Him. If you love Jesus and you have a relationship with Him then He is always there to answer when you seek Him. He will not steer you wrong He will prevent you from stepping out of line with His plan for your life and keeping you safe and secure on the path He has for your very life. Do not get carried away with your emotions for that is when the danger lurks just around the corner. Be cautious and wise.
There were several times today that He rescued me from making stupid decisions and stepping into territories that He did not call me to be in. Be ever so sensitive to Holy Spirit direction and test the spirits that may be leading you away from the plan of God in your life. It is OK to ask is this thought or suggestion idea that just came to my mind from God, the enemy, or myself. If you are willing to hear and accept truth He will speak to your heart and it again is your choice to listen or not. Use wisdom in the days in which we live in right now. The enemy is out there and is active trying to trip up the saints and take them away, far away from the destiny God had pre-destined them to live.

When Holy Spirit Gives You The Nudge To Interact With Someone, He Usually Gives You A Confirmation That It Was Him Doing The Nudging. If You Continually Do Not Get Confirmations After Following Through Then You Need To Examine If It Was Holy Spirit or Just You Wanting To Act On Your Own Strength And Not In His.
