Setting out Fleece Part 2
Earlier I spoke about why we should set out our own “fleece” (http://secretrulesforattainment.blogspot.com/2014/01/setting-out-fleece-to-make-decisions.html) here I will explain the why and how.
Unlike Gideon who was already told exactly what to do, have
you, in your situation, heard the voice of God saying that you definitely must go
and have victory over the Midianites of your job career? If not, I’m thinking
that it’s OK to “set out the fleece” to use it as an indicator as to whether or
not you should continue one way or another when making decisions. But, when you
do get a clear answer, then go with it. Do not continue to be a “doubting
Thomas”; you’ve got your answer, now go forth!
First ask yourself what your “fleece” would be. You may be
already getting confirmations all around you as you go throughout your day, but
you are not “seeing” them. (In my Best
Selling Kindle Book: Pearls of Prosperity, I point out how I start each day
with a morning ritual which in part has me asking that I not only “see”, but
that I “observe”).
Your fleece could be something as simple as saying that, “OK,
if my boss asks me to work this weekend (after you’ve never worked weekends for
months), I will take this as a sign that I should take the other job”. Is this
kind of scary or what??? Oh yeah!!! Also be sure to put a deadline on it like
Gideon did, he didn’t wait a week for an answer, it was the next morning.
Here’s the interesting part; you will get an answer and sometimes it’s “over the top”. Your boss
walks out of her office and to your desk and explains something like: “I know
we haven’t had to have people work overtime for a while, but I could really use
you to work the next four weekends”.
Wow, she is asking for four weekends; not just for one.
Sometimes just how fast and to the point this happens, will
startle you. You mean it really works? Yes. Now be “observant” and you’ll see
circumstances which happen that confirm this is the right decision. Things such
as your landlord tells you of a rent increase happening soon, you find out that
a friend just moved to the area that you will be going, someone wants to buy
your second vehicle which you won’t need at the new location could all indicate
that you need to move forward.
Now you’ve got your answer and keep your word. Don’t waver;
here is where you use your faith. Go to the job opportunity that is 1000 miles
away and put your “everything” in it and make it work; “faith the facts”, it is
meant to be.
