THE PATH OF THE JUST SHINES UNTO PERFECTION
“But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day” – Proverbs 4:18
*Comment:* The way to go in life is vital and light makes the path visible to follow. Lack of direction and light, defeats purpose and speed. Unfortunately, mankind by their human wisdom and strength, find it difficult to chart direction for their lives resulting in their stumbling, falling, or getting lost and trapped because evil or sin creates dark, jagged roads in the world.
Speaking emphatically, nobody knows the way that he should go and 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). And King Solomon in 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).
God who gives life to man, orchestrates how the life of man should be, especially the righteous lovers of God. In Psalm 37:23, the Psalmist wrote: ” 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, the more 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! The light shines on.
*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.
