Psalm 25:10<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Undoubtedly, God has strewn our path with encouraging promises, which are scattered throughout His word. He has pledged to lead us in the paths of righteousness and make the way we take secure. But can we trust His promises? Can we be certain that His word is true? Indeed, we can, and David is a living testament to this. Often in the Book of Psalms, we see David lifting up his heart to the Lord in prayer and praise, and calling out to Him for guidance and pardon. His prayers often contain a request for God&#8217;s help in the face of his enemies, which demonstrates a quiet confidence that God is faithful to His word and will not let him down. Today\u2019s Watchword is no different. <\/p>\n\n\n<p>The promises of God are founded on nothing less than the perfection of God&#8217;s holy nature. They are rooted in God\u2019s steadfast love and the eternal faithfulness of His everlasting word. David knows this to be true in his own life, and we find him reflecting on the wonder of the Lord as he prayerfully considers the goodness of God and His faithfulness in meeting sinners and teaching them the way of truth: All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness. God\u2019s ways lead to gracious love, and He shows His fidelity towards those who keep His covenant and His decrees.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n<p>The faithfulness, mercy, goodness, and grace of God, are no less true today than during that time when David discovered the Lord was his Shepherd who gently leads him beside the still waters, faithfully guides him into the way of peace, guards him in the valley of the shadow of death, and prepares a plentiful table of good things in the midst of all his enemies. It is only as we remain in Christ, rest in His love, and walk in the path He has planned for us, that we will discover all His paths are strewn with goodness and grace. God is working in our lives with an eternal perspective, and it is only as we walk in harmony with the Lord and remain in accordance with His plans and purposes that we will remain in harmony with His truth.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>The way we travel may not be the path of our choosing, nor the way we expected to trudge. The path we take may be covered with difficulties and dangers, but God\u2019s grace is sufficient for every eventuality we may encounter. He knows the best way for each of us to take for He is the way, and we need to trust Him to lead us aright, even when the route is overshadowed by dark and thunderous clouds.\u00a0\u00a0As we trust God\u2019s word, carry out His will, abide in Him, and He is us, we will grow in faith. His way will lead us deeper into fellowship with Himself and enable us to mature in the faith, grow in grace, and gain a deeper knowledge of the holy. For He desires us to enjoy a satisfying and unbroken communion with Him.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>May we commit to walk with God and enjoy the benefits of His presence and His covenantal promises.\u00a0<strong>Amen.<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Jermaine Gibson<\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep his covenant and his decrees.
