Today's Scripture<br />
"The steps of a good man are ordered of the Lord<br />
and He delights in his way"<br />
Psalm 37:23<br />
THE STEPS OF A GOOD MAN...<br />
God ordains every step, we His children will take; the good and the bad, the<br />
happy and the sad, the positive and the negative. Because He is God, there<br />
are no accidents with him. Nothing ever happens to the child of God by luck,<br />
chance or fate. No circumstance; whether good or bad, can come to us apart<br />
from God’s determined purpose for us.<br />
You see, when you allow the Lord to order your steps, there will be peace.<br />
When you allow the Lord to order your steps, there will be joy. When you<br />
allow the Lord to order your steps, there will be power. When you allow the<br />
Lord to order your steps, there will be victory. When you allow the Lord to<br />
order your steps, you have something to shout about because when He order<br />
your steps, you will be blessed going in and going out, you will be blessed in<br />
the city and in the field, you will be the head and not the tail, you will be above<br />
,and not beneath. And when God blesses you like that you ought to praise<br />
God with a joyful noise!!!!!!!<br />
Having your steps ordered by the Lord as a child of God, does not mean that<br />
everything will be rosy and smooth for you all the times. While the Lord<br />
is ordering your steps, there will be times you will face some problems,<br />
obstacles, setbacks, sickness, pain, disappointments, heartbreaks and failures.<br />
But through it all, through sunshine and rain, while the Lord is ordering your<br />
steps, just know and believe that all things are going to work together for the<br />
good to them that love the Lord, and is called according to His purpose.<br />
You got to believe and know that God is able to order your steps through your<br />
problems, through your disappointments, through your heartbreaks, through<br />
your pain, or whatever. Just know and believe that no matter what you face<br />
in this life, if you allow the Lord to order your step, you will have the victory!!!!!<br />
And don't you forget this; A GOOD MAN IS NOT A PERFECT MAN!!<br />
Gracious Lord, let us follow in the steps that you would have us tread. Help<br />
us to always trust in your power and grace to guide our pathways and to<br />
strengthen our hearts and our bodies when we become weary or fall. Give us<br />
new awareness of your presence, that we may always walk in your work and,<br />
as the psalmists of old, let us sing songs of praise to you, Lord. Amen.<br />
