Greetings and thank you so much for journeying with us throughout this week, where we take time to reflect on some of God’s promises for guidance. We want to wrap up today by looking at Proverbs chapter 4, verse 18, the scripture says, ‘But the path of the just is like the shining sun, that shines ever brighter unto the perfect day.’ This verse is telling us that our path, the path of the righteous, the path of the people who are seeking God, who fear God, who are choosing to do what is right in the eyes of the Lord, that path is like the sun that rises up and gets to its zenith/ peak in the afternoon. So, we can imagine this in the early hours of the morning, when the sun is just about to rise, things are not absolutely clear. We can see a little bit but not everything is clear but as the sun begins to rise, slowly and surely, things get clearer and clearer and right at noon day, everything is clear and there are no shadows. So, the scripture is saying, the path of the just is like that, it gets clearer and clearer as we keep journeying with God. So, this is God’s way of working in our life. As we seek His guidance, pray and ask Him to direct our steps and trust in Him, listen to His word and the leading of the Holy Spirit and get godly counsel in our lives, as we begin to take steps, these are of course steps of faith. We don’t have all the answers, we are taking one step at a time knowing that God is leading us and directing our paths and the promise is that our path will become clearer and clearer, as we keep journeying with God. So, indeed receiving God’s guidance and following His guidance is a journey of faith and this is the assurance He gives us that as we keep walking in faith, our path will get brighter and brighter and clearer and clearer and we will be able to see God unfold His plans and purposes and walk so confidently with Him throughout life’s journey. So, we take this assurance- things are going to get clearer and brighter as we keep journeying with God.
Let’s pray, Father, we thank you for your assurance of guidance in our life. Even as each one of us learn to listen to you and take small steps to follow you, we thank you for the assurance that things will get clearer and clearer and brighter and brighter, as you continue to lead us each step of the way, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
