The word defer means to to put off an action until a future time, or to show respect or to go in a different direction (dictionary.com). We can defer to God. We can decide to show honor to Him, and not do what our flesh wants or needs, but to do what God has shown us in our hearts is right. Isaiah 45:13 speaks prophetically of Jesus, “I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways” (KJV). Jesus said in John 5:19, “the Son can do nothing on his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. What the Father does, the Son does likewise. (NET). Put your plans on hold. Ask God what he wants you to do today, and then decide to defer to Him, and trust Him to bring you out on the other side in a place that you might not have chosen, but will be exactly where you needed to be!
