God Is Not the Author of Confusion
I just love when Holy Spirit speaks to me so clearly! This morning He said, I AM not the author of confusion. I don’t promote division. Seek Me for clarity.
God is not a God of confusion but a God of peace. This is true in all the churches of God’s people. — 1 Corinthians 14:33 ICB
God is not a God of confusion but a God of peace. This is the rule for all the meetings of God’s people. — 1 Corinthians 14:33 ESV
When we worship the right way, God doesn’t stir us up into confusion; he brings us into harmony. This goes for all the churches—no exceptions. — 1 Corinthians 14:33 MSG (in part)
As I was talking to Holy Spirit about this, He said: What starts in church should pour out into community and be lead by My people.
When I looked back at the ESV translation of 1 Corinthians 14:33, it says, this is the rule for ALL the meetings of God’s people. That means since we (the people) are the church, then no matter where we are meeting at, we should be doing meetings God’s Way. That means not having a bunch of confusion or disorder going on.
The message translation says when we worship the right way (and we don’t just worship in a church building. Again we the people are God’s church, but when we worship the right way, God doesn’t stir us up into confusion. So if it’s chaotic and confusion and a bunch of mess going on…God ain’t in none of that!
We are to seek God for clarity. How can we do that? Proverbs 3:6 says:
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. — Proverbs 3:6 KJV
When we seek Him and acknowledge Him, He will give us clarity on what to do, how to do it, and when to do it. But if we are confused, that means we haven’t sought Him and His direction. If there is confusion in the place where you are, that means the leaders haven’t sought God. If there is chaos and confusion vs harmony and peace, we haven’t sought God.
Be encouraged today to seek the God of peace in every area of your life.

SALVATION PRAYER
If you don’t know Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior and you’re not a believer, but you have a desire to be, all you have to do is openly confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead (Romans 10:9). When you pray that prayer, you are saved. Get connected with a good, bible-based church in your community, stay connected to other believers, and start having daily conversations through prayer with God every single day. Welcome to your new life with Jesus Christ!!!
