THE PATH OF THE JUST
“But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day” Proverbs 4:18
Comment: Direction in life is vital and light gives clarity to the path one must follow. Without direction and light, then purpose and speed is defeated. Unfortunately, men by their human wisdom and strength, constantly struggle to find direction for their lives resulting in their stumbling, falling, or getting lost and trapped because evil creates dark, jagged roads in the world. Emphatically speaking, nobody knows the way that he should go. The Prophet Jeremiah declared, ” O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps” Jeremiah 10:23. Proverbs 20:24 affirms, “The LORD is the one who directs a person’s steps. How then can anyone understand his own way?” (New Living Translation)
The Lord who gives life to man, orchestrates how the life of man should be, especially the righteous lovers of God. Psalm 37:23 establishes that ” The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way [and blesses his path].” The more we walk in the light of the godly wisdom of God, we grow into our full strength and glory. Beloved of the Lord, you cannot be limited, lost, or lack any good thing when your heavenly Father delights in every detail of your life and desires to grant you good success in all you do. Your path is bright! Continue to walk righteously!
PRAYER: Father, thank you for directing my steps on your highway of light. Help me to walk in your path of truth and righteousness all the days of my life for blessings and salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
