“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.
