Have you ever needed clarity? Ever felt like you needed God's help in making a big decision? Today's promise is about God leading us, and it's found in Proverbs 3:6.
In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. - Proverbs 3:6
We all need God's direction in our life. We face decisions where we don't know what to do. We come to a fork in the road, and we aren't sure if we should go right or left. That's when most of us think about asking God for direction and leadership. However, God is not our personal GPS. We can't just turn Him on for guidance, then turn Him off when we arrive safely.
He must not be the last resort when we are lost, but the first step when we begin our journey.
Most of God's promises are conditional. God has a requirement to be met before the promise can be secured. The condition for this promise of direction is our acknowledging God.
When we acknowledge God in all our ways, we are saying, "God today you are in control. All my goals, desires and hopes are in your hands. Today, I set my life before you to be used as You wish."
Sometimes we are asking God for direction, but we've never asked if this is where He wants us to go? We ask directions before ask if we should go at all.
When we acknowledge Him, He promises to give direction and lead us down a straight path.
