All the paths of the Lord are lovingkindness and goodness and truth and faithfulness To those who keep His covenant and His testimonies.
Dear Ones: Paths of the Lord! Each of us has a unique destiny or path of life established by the Lord of Glory. These paths of the Lord are paved with lovingkindness, goodness, truth, and faithfulness. To remain on our specific path, we are commanded to keep His covenant and His testimonies.
David penned this psalm when he sought God for deliverance from his enemies and forgiveness of his sins. Like David, we need to remember that God wants to prosper us and to give us hope. He is not the taskmaster who comes to kill and destroy our lives. When we choose to be led by the Holy Spirit, we will enjoy the goodness of the Lord along the path of life He established for us.
Does that mean we won’t have any troubles as we follow our path? No. The Lord explained in Matthew 6:34, MSG. “Give your entire attention to what God is doing right now, and don’t get worked up about what may or may not happen tomorrow. God will help you deal with whatever hard things come up when the time comes.” He has sent mercy and truth to be our traveling companions as we walk on our specific pathway through life.
Declare today, “The paths of the Lord are leading me to the place of blessing even in the midst of the storms of life. God’s goodness and lovingkindness line my path. Mercy and truth help me to overcome the rough spots. I am an overcomer as I follow Holy Spirit’s guidance.” I bless you in Jesus’ name.
