TOPIC: DIVINE RELOCATION (MIGRATION)
BIBLE TEXT: Isaiah 55:8-9
[8]For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
[9]For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
MEMORY VERSE: Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”
INTRODUCTION: Divine relocation, or migration guided by God’s leading, is a recurring theme throughout the Bible. From Abraham’s journey to the Promised Land to the Israelites’ exodus from Egypt, God often calls His people to move from one place to another in obedience to His will. As teenagers, it’s essential to learn how to discern God’s leading and trust Him in times of transition and change. Isaiah 58:11.

B. BUILDING TRUST IN GOD’S GUIDANCE.
i. The story of Abraham’s divine relocation serves as a powerful example of faith and obedience. God called Abraham to leave his country, his people, and his father’s household and go to the land that God would show him. Despite the uncertainty and challenges. Gen 12
ii. Abraham obeyed God’s command and became the father of many nations- Genesis 12:1-4. Abraham’s journey teaches us the importance of trusting God’s promises and stepping out in faith, even when the path ahead is unclear.
iii. God’s plans for our lives often involve stepping out of our comfort zones and trusting Him to lead us to where He wants us to be.
iv. The Israelites’ journey from slavery in Egypt to the Promised Land is another example of divine relocation guided by God’s leading.
v. God went before them in a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night, guiding them through the wilderness and protecting them from harm.
vi. The Israelites’ exodus reminds us that God is always with us, leading and guiding us through life’s wilderness experiences. Even when the journey is difficult and uncertain, we can trust in God’s presence and provision every step of the way. Exodus 13:21-22.
vii. Trust in God’s wisdom and understanding, even when His plans seem mysterious or challenging to comprehend. Isaiah 55:8-9
CONCLUSION: As teenagers facing the prospect of divine relocation or migration, it’s essential to trust in God’s timing and provision. God knows the plans He has for us, and His plans are always for our welfare and future hope. We can trust that God will lead us to where He wants us to be, and He will provide for our every need along the way.
