Proverbs 3:6 – Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.
Once one commits to follow Christ, the hardest part is failing to feel confidence that you are taking the correct path in your daily walk. I believe one of Satan's greatest tools is our own lack of confidence in the path we are walking. We feel uncertainty that the next step we take is the right one. I often reason that I have the Bible to help me in my decisions of right and wrong, but how do I know the next step is the right one to really take?
For most of us, we feel those uncertainties and agitations. Often, our uncertainties turn us away from following Christ and we choose to take control of the bull and make our own aggressive and confident decisions for ourselves. If you are like me, you have to ask the question, how is that working for you? Usually not very good. It's definitely not the believer's life you are destined for.
Truth be told, the decisions you make on your own are often very good ones. But usually, they are not God's choices. So, then how does one stay in the confidence of following Christ's path? The journey starts very simply and remains with a choice for the entirety of your journey.
Lord, I seek your will today, tomorrow, and every day after. My attitude to follow you, my desire to seek your heart and face is my choice. It is where I begin and where I end. There is nothing I desire more than to follow you. When I see clearly your path, I follow you. When I do not see with clarity the path before me, I still follow you. When you walk, I walk. When you stop and are silent, so am I. I stand in the confidence that you are by my side.
I stand in your strength and walk in your steps.
Today, commit yourself to seek the will of God. Stand in that confidence. There is no greater place to be.
Stay healthy and have a blessed weekend!
