Have you ever faced a decision that left you feeling uncertain about which way to go? In today's prayer and devotional, Scripture reminds us that our steps are directed by the Lord, even when we can’t fully see or understand His plan. Christine Perry shares a personal story of feeling the Lord’s nudge to step away from her current path without knowing what would come next.

What began as confusion and hesitation became a testimony of God’s perfect provision. Where Christine only saw uncertainty, God had already prepared opportunities for work, housing, and growth that she never could have orchestrated on her own.

The truth is, our perspective is limited—we see only what’s right in front of us. God, however, sees the full picture. Trusting Him with our decisions means surrendering our desire for total control and stepping forward in faith, even when the path feels unclear. His direction may not always align with our original plans, but His way is always better.

Today's Bible Reading

"A man's steps are of the Lord; How then can a man understand his own way?"Proverbs 20:24 (NKJV)


Key Takeaways

  • God often asks us to take the first step before revealing the next.

  • Our plans may fall through, but God’s purposes never fail.

  • Trusting His direction requires faith beyond what we can see.

  • God’s provision and timing are always perfect, even when the process feels uncertain.


Let’s Pray Together

Lord, thank You for directing my steps, even when I don’t understand the way forward. Help me to trust Your wisdom and surrender my plans to You. Thank You for being my Shepherd, Provider, and Guide. Teach me to walk in faith, believing that Your direction is always good. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
