Where God Guides
Trusting His Direction
As believers, we are called to trust in the guidance of the Lord. In Proverbs 3:5-6, we are reminded to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and lean not on our own understanding. When we acknowledge Him in all our ways, He will direct our paths. This means surrendering our plans and desires to His perfect will, knowing that His guidance is always for our good.
Seeking His Will
When we seek God’s guidance, it’s important to align our desires with His Word. Psalm 119:105 tells us that His word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. By immersing ourselves in Scripture and spending time in prayer, we can better discern His will for our lives. When we seek His will above our own, He promises to make our paths straight (Proverbs 3:6).
Following His Path
Once we have received His guidance, we must be willing to follow where He leads. This may require stepping out in faith, trusting that His plans are better than our own. Proverbs 16:9 reminds us that a man’s heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps. As we surrender to His leading, we can be confident that He will work all things together for our good (Romans 8:28).
