WHO'S IN CHARGE HERE?




Jeremiah 10:23

"I know, O Lord, that the way of man is not in himself, that it is not in man who walks to direct his steps." ESV


We all like being in control of our own lives. There is a lot of comfort in being able to plan out our comings and goings. But, we tend to forget that we are not really in control of anything about our lives. God is in control of all things. He allows us to choose our master. We choose to let Him be in control of our lives or we choose to let our sinful natures be in control of our lives. As Christians, we acknowledge that we were bought by the blood of Christ. He is in control of everything about us.

Heavenly Father, it is comforting to know that You are in control of our lives. We know You are leading us to Yourself. That is where we long to be. Help us to keep hearing Your voice and in obedience, following Your steps. In Jesus' name, Amen.

FOLLOW THE LIGHT

 
Proverbs 4:18
 
"But the path of righteousness is like the light of dawn, which shines brighter and brighter until full day." ESV
 
Our spiritual growth and maturity is seen in the path we walk. Each step we take toward God, there is an increase in the light to see the path ahead of us. Those who earnestly seek God will see the light and follow it. Those who do not seek God will see different, much less radiant lights, and will follow them into a wilderness of aimless wandering. Following God's light is like the sun rising at dawn. At first it barely lights the day, but with each minute that passes, there is more and more light. Soon the noonday shines, and it's light everywhere.
 
Heavenly Father, help us to keep seeking You and to stay on the path You have set before us. Help us to grow and mature so that Your light will shine bright through us as we take each step, and will help others find the Way. In Jesus' name, Amen.

STEADY STEPS PROTECT

 
 
Psalm 119:133


"Keep steady my steps according to your promise, and let no iniquity get dominion over me." ESV


In order for the Lord to keep our steps steady, we have to allow Him to do so. Walking steady according to His Word is the most stable and safe place we can ever walk. If we allow Him to keep us walking steady, we can be confident that no sin is going to overtake us.


Heavenly Father, we stand in need of keeping our spiritual walk steady and stable. Enhance our spiritual eyes and ears so we can know the way You would have us walk. And we praise You for guarding us against falling into the clutches of sin. In Jesus' name, Amen.
