The Lord Will Guide You Always—Two2Grow, Tuesday, November 10
“The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.” Isaiah 58:11 NIV
You don’t have to figure life out by yourself. I love the opening phrase in today’s text. Emelie and I have leaned hard on it on a number of occasions. I encourage you to apply it for yourself and say aloud:
“The Lord will guide me always.”
When you talk to family and friends who might be in a tough spot and not know what decision to make or where to go, encourage them with this word. And pray it over yourself and your loved ones.
We are not left on our own to try to calculate various possible outcomes and then make a decision based on that. The Holy Spirit is given to each believer to be with us forever. And one of the Spirit’s most significant works is to guide and direct our steps in the will of God.
We are to seek the direction of the Holy Spirit, and He will direct our path.
How? The Holy Spirit is God and therefore can communicate with us in a number of different ways. So, the exact mode of communication we leave up to Him to choose.
As long as we are willing and keep our hearts open through prayer, He will make His will known at the right time.
Holy Spirit, I thank You for being my Helper and Guide. Lead me right today. Amen.
