“Make me know Your ways, O LORD, teach me Your paths.
Lead me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation…”
Psalm 25:4-5

As followers of Christ we desire to know His ways.  We seek divine guidance in all we do.  Not just in when we find ourselves in a hard place, but moment to moment as we recognize and embrace Ephesians 2:10,

“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.”

With the Psalmist we say,
Lead me, O LORD, in Your righteousness…make Your way straight before me.”  Psalm 5:8

“Teach me Your way, O LORD, that I may walk in Your truth; unite my heart to fear Your name.”  Psalm 86:11

It is our desire to be led and guided by the Lord.  Thanks upon thanks, it is the Lord’s desire to lead, to guide, to teach us His ways and how to walk in them.  We know this for certain because Jesus Himself said,
“But when He the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all the truth…”  John 16:13

Divine guidance is promised to Believer--
*Guidance in the way of pleasant paths by the Good Shepherd:
“He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.  Psalm 23:2-3

*Guidance in making decisions:
“I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will counsel you with My eye upon you.”  Psalm 32:8

*Guidance to the end of life:
“For this is God,
Our God forever and ever;
He will be our guide
Even to death.”  Psalm 48:14
*Guidance by a small voice:
“And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, ‘This is the way, walk in it,’ when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.”  Isaiah 30:21

*Guidance in the midst of uncertainties:
“I will bring the blind by a way they did not know;
I will lead them in paths they have not known.
I will make darkness light before them,
And crooked places straight.
These things I will do for them,
And not forsake them.”  Isaiah 42:16

*Guidance by divine illumination:
“To give light to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.”  Luke 1:79

God is in control and we know that our hope and trust are rightly placed in Christ Jesus, our Lord, who loves His own and has made provisions for us now and in eternity.

Bless and praise Him forever.    Amen
