Trusting God's Guidance on Uncharted Paths
I thought I had everything figured out when the Lord told me that He wanted me to go on a journey to a place I had never been before—a place where I knew no one. At first, I found myself wondering, “What will I do there? I don’t know anyone, and I have no place to stay.” These were the exact thoughts running through my mind as I pondered the situation.
But then, at the moment of reflection, I realized something important: the same Lord who gave me this instruction is the one who has the power to provide for me and carry out His plan. It’s easy to forget that, especially when we’re faced with uncertainty. But when we trust in God’s guidance, we discover that He has everything in control.
As I began to follow His instruction, it became evident that God’s hand was involved. At every step, He showed up, guiding me in ways that confirmed His presence in my journey.
Surrendering Control to God
Handing over our lives to God and allowing Him to take charge can be difficult for many people—especially for those who have always been in control of their own affairs, making decisions based on schedules and routines. It’s often easier said than done.
Saying, “Lord, take charge,” and truly trusting His judgment to lead us to the place He has destined for our lives can feel blinding. But that’s what faith is all about. It’s the kind of faith that allows the Lord to work in our lives and bring His purpose to fruition. When we approach Him with childlike faith, trusting without needing to see the whole picture, we can begin to learn and believe in His guidance.
At every stage in our lives, God leads His children on journeys that align with His perfect timing and His purpose for us. Seeking His presence daily and humbling ourselves before Him is how we initiate that divine conversation, inviting Him into every aspect of our lives.
When we partner with the Lord, we stay aligned with His plan for our lives. Starting each day with Him doesn’t just strengthen our relationship with God—it also prepares us for the blessings He has in store. God is intentional about His children, and His plan for us is always good.
Psalm 139:13-16
"For You formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother’s womb.
I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret and skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes have seen my unformed substance.
And in Your book were all written
The days that were ordained for me,
When as yet there was not one of them."
This passage reminds us that God knit us together with a purpose. He is intentional about who we are and what He wants to do in our lives. However, we must first begin with Him to see His plan unfold. His ultimate goal is to prosper us, as stated in Jeremiah 29:11. No one who has started with the Lord has ever ended up in ruins. It might seem like nothing is happening at first, but even in the silence, Jesus is working. He is orchestrating everything according to His will, bringing everything into fruition at just the right time.
Did you start with the lord today?
When he said seek you shall find, he was referring to you.
He has the best for you, but he needs your yes as the seal for partnership.
Stay revived.
