Anytime you enter a new zone, a new level in your life, a new level of ministry, you have entered a new Theater of Engagement. You can be doing the right thing in the right place at the right time, however never forget there is an enemy out there setting up obstacles, mines, and traps. He is limited to things common to man. He will watch and listen for a weak spot and set up ambushes for you.
As long as you let the Holy Spirit be your point man, your scout, your guide, and do as He instructs [ no matter how it sounds to your mind ( logic ) ]you will side step all those entrapments.
2 Kings 6:8-12 shows the operation of this in the Old Testament through the prophet, however as New Testament believers we are lead directly by the Holy Spirit
2 Kings 6:8-12
King James Version (KJV)8 Then the king of Syria warred against Israel, and took counsel with his servants, saying, In such and such a place shall be my camp.
9 And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying, Beware that thou pass not such a place; for thither the Syrians are come down.
10 And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God told him and warned him of, and saved himself there, not once nor twice.
11 Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was sore troubled for this thing; and he called his servants, and said unto them, Will ye not shew me which of us is for the king of Israel?
12 And one of his servants said, None, my lord, O king: but Elisha, the prophet that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in thy bedchamber.
The Lord through the operation Holy Spirit can guide us around the ambushes of the enemy
