Devotion for Thursday, April 11, 2019
“My soul weeps because of grief; strengthen me according to Your word. Remove
the false way from me, and graciously grant me Your law. I have chosen the
faithful way; I have placed Your ordinances before me.” (Psalm 119:28-30)
This world is filled with those who do not follow the way of the Lord. Sin compounds and the Lord is blamed. Do not follow in the path of destruction, but in the way of the Lord. He is good and worthy of all praise. Come to Him and know the goodness of His grace and mercy. Walk in His statutes and know that His way is right. Trust in Him, for He alone will lead you all the days of your life in the way of truth.
Lord, it becomes very foggy sometimes as I try to discern which way to
go. The people clamor, yet they remain self-absorbed. Guide me, O Lord, in the
way of righteousness that I would now and always choose to walk the faithful
way of Your statutes. Remove all that is false within me and grow in me what it
is that You have created me for. Be above, below, in front, behind around and
beside me always.
Lord Jesus, I need to be rescued.
You have come to lead through the narrow way. Guide me today and every day to
see more clearly the steps to take. Help me to live into the life to which You
have called me. Place Your ordinances in my heart and help me to do good
always. You are my Savior, but You are also my example. Lead me this day by
grace into all goodness. Amen.
