Are Your Steps From the Lord?

Are Your Steps From the Lord?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know a person’s steps are from You. In Jesus’s name, amen.

Do you believe that God is involved in every aspect of your life?

It is comforting to know that God already knows where we will go, what we will do, and with whom we will spend time.

Proverbs 20:24 (ESV) reassures us of this point.

“A man’s steps are from the Lord;
how then can man understand his way?”

Pray and ask God to give you his divine guidance. Rather than tell God where you want to go, why not ask God to guide your steps as you follow his will for your life.

Out of the Pit of Destruction?

Out of the Pit of Destruction?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who trust God to draw them out of the pit of destruction. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Ever walk on an uneven path? In doing so, a person becomes acutely aware of their balance, and takes each step cautiously.

In Psalm 40:1-2 (ESV), the psalmist takes us on a journey from the pit of destruction to being surefooted.

“I waited patiently for the Lord;
he inclined to me and heard my cry.
He drew me up from the pit of destruction,
out of the miry bog,
and set my feet upon a rock,
making my steps secure.”

God can make our way safe and secure.

Seek the Lord. Be wise. Ask for help.

Step By Step?

Step By Step?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who acknowledge you establish a person’s steps. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Cultures can place a high value on independent thinking. This can be taken to an extreme when people think they are in total control of their own destiny.

It is God who has something to say about a man’s steps. Two verses reinforce God’s say in the matter:

The first is Proverbs 16:9 (ESV):

“The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.”

The second is Psalm 37:23-24 (ESV):

“The steps of a man are established by the Lord,
when he delights in his way;
though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong,
for the Lord upholds his hand.”

Are you about to chart the future? Acknowledging God is in control. Look to him for guidance.
