The Lord says, I will guide you along the
best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you. Psalm
32:7-8
God will protect you. The ultimate
comfort—the greatest promise. God is on your side. David wrote about God being
his hiding place. God hasn’t changed. He is our hiding place and will protect
us. From what or whom do you have to hide?
God promises to guide you in the best
pathway, to advice and to guard you—to keep you from harm.
People
who accept discipline are on the pathway to life, but those who ignore
correction will go astray. Proverbs 10:17. The pathway is important.
Solomon goes on to tell us that if we seek God’s will, then He will show you
which path to take. Trust in the LORD
with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in
all you do, and He will show you which path to take. Don't be impressed with
your own wisdom. Instead, fear the LORD and turn away from evil. Then you will
have healing for your body and strength for your bones. Proverbs 3:5-8.
Similarly, Jesus taught in the Sermon on
the Mount…But seek first His kingdom and
His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Matthew 6:33
NASB. All these things are food, clothing, and shelter. That is a path of care
and security. Once again a promise that He will take care of those who seek
Him—those who want to follow Him and do His will. Are you seeking Him in your
life—to live the way He wants you to live—serving Him? Here’s another pathway
promise that seems especially good for those of us who live in a semi-desert
area of Eastern Washington state. For I
am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I
will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry
wasteland. Isaiah 43:19. Let Him guide you in His pathway.
Prayer
~ Lord Jesus, guide me along Your pathway providing me wisdom, security, and
protection. I trust You with all my heart and am leaning on You, not my own
understanding, as I seek to do Your will.
