“And a fire blazed up in their company; the flame consumed the wicked. They made a calf in Horeb and worshiped a molten image.” (Psalm 106:18-19)

The moderns think such things not possible, yet many in our day worship things made of metal. We worship the created and not the Creator. The One who made all things is the only One who is worthy of honor and praise. Do not worship things created, but the One who made you. Know that only in Him is liberty and life and that apart from Him is the way of wickedness and darkness.

Lord, lead me in the only true way to go that I may walk the narrow road of life. Help me through all the obstacles that are raised up before me that I may now and always walk with You. Many will come along, tempting me to chase after false things, but keep my heart close to You that I may now and always walk in the way of eternal life. You are the One who is worthy of praise.

Holy Spirit, come and minister to my heart. You give all that is needed to live a life of righteousness. Clear the path for me that I may be guided by You and not created things. Lift my spirit that I may abide in Jesus and He in me now and always. Bring me ever closer to being like Him this day, walking the narrow road of salvation and doing what is pleasing in the Father’s sight. Amen.

“So He gave them their request, but sent a wasting disease among them. When they became envious of Moses in the camp, and of Aaron, the holy one of the Lord, the earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and engulfed the company of Abiram.” (Psalm 106:15-17)

In every generation, there are those who contend with the Lord. They seem to have power, but it comes to nothing. Who is able to stand against the Lord? It is the Lord who prevails and in Him alone is everything held together. Do not trust in the ways of any but the Lord and know that all shall come to pass as He has purposed. The Lord alone is God of all.

Lord, in these troubled times, there are many things that are said and done that sway me and tug at my loyalties. Guide me, O Lord, that I may humbly walk in Your ways. Teach me discernment that I would not be deceived by those who demonstrate false powers and do things to lead people away from You. Help me at all times to see that only in You is there hope and a future.

Lord Jesus, You have come to rescue the lost sheep of the Father’s house. You did not come just to do signs and wonders, but to lift up with You all who come to You that in You we may have new life. Lead me this day, O Lord, to walk always in Your ways knowing that in You alone is the salvation prepared beforehand. Help me now and always Lord to cling to You, my Lord and my Savior. Amen.

“They quickly forgot His works; they did not wait for His counsel, but craved intensely in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.” (Psalm 106:13-14)

The people who have heard the name of the Lord quickly forget Him and go the way of rebellion. Contentious, they rail against the Lord and do not live according to His Word. It should not be so with you. Do not forget the Lord and the truth that all things are in His hands. Know that the Lord prevails and it shall be His will that will be done. Come into the Lord’s presence and walk according to His way.

Lord, I too know the way of rebellion, for I strive for what I want. Lead me by Your grace that I would know that You alone hold all things in Your hands and that apart from You comes nothing. You are God and there is no one who will prevail against what You have already determined. Lead me, O Lord, in the way of salvation that I would walk humbly in Your sight.

Lord Jesus, You have come to rescue us from our ways of death. Lead me, O Lord, according to Your goodness that I would now and always walk in Your grace. Help me to overcome the way of rebellion that I would learn to obey all that You have commanded. You know my condition and the troubles before me. Lead me to walk now and always with You, O Lord, and abide in Your presence. Amen.

“So He saved them from the hand of the one who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy. The waters covered their adversaries; not one of them was left. Then they believed His words; they sang His praise.” (Psalm 106:10-12)

When all is said and done, there will not be one left to rebel against those who walk humbly with the Lord. Realize that He who redeems you knows all that will come. Come then into His rest and know that the Lord God is the Almighty One who will bring all things together that His people would praise Him for His goodness.

Lord, I am contentious and want You to bring about things according to my will. Help me I pray to see that it is Your will that shall be done; and that in You alone is the hope of glory. Guide me in the way of life that You have established from the beginning that I may walk humbly in Your sight. Lead me, O Lord, to be discerning that I may now and always hold fast to the truth of Your Word and obey what You command.

Lord Jesus, You hold all authority and all things are in Your hands. Lead me, O Lord, to walk in the example You give that I would now and always abide in You and You in me. Moment by moment, lead me into the truth of the presence of the Father and the Holy Spirit that I may walk humbly with You all the days of my life. Give me an attitude of praise and thanksgiving for all of Your goodness. Amen.

“Nevertheless He saved them for the sake of His name, that He might make His power known. Thus He rebuked the Red Sea and it dried up, and He led them through the deeps, as through the wilderness.” (Psalm 106:8-9)

The Lord knows His creation. How He does what He does is in His power. Focus on the truth that this is the Lord’s creation. Know that in Him all the future is in His hands. He alone knows all that will come. Trust in the Lord and all of His ways. See that in Him alone is the goodness your heart desires. He will lead you all the days of your life in the way of righteousness and grace.

Lord, my mind battles in this age wanting to control my environment,but You are the One who created the environment. Guide me, O Lord, in the way of truth that I would trust You above all things. Lead me according to Your will to walk now and always in Your way. O Lord, You alone know the way of this life that You have created. Guide me according to Your mercy to walk always with You.

Lord Jesus, You have come to lead the way for those who trust in You. Lead me in the way of salvation knowing that all things are in Your hands. Help me overcome the obstacles before me that I would now and always walk according to the Father’s will. Help me to see clearly the things that are happening around me that I may walk by faith knowing all things are in Your hands. Amen.
