DAY 2 OF 21

Day 2

Rachel Culver

Topic: Guidance

Scripture Reference: Psalm 37:23

Devotional:

God, who is outside of time and sees the end from the beginning, has carefully and lovingly ordered your steps. But He does more than that. He does not leave you in the dark to stumble around and figure out those steps by yourself. Psalm 199:105 says, “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path” (KJV). God comes alongside you through His Word and the Holy Spirit to illuminate your path. He wants to be your guide, the one you turn to for counsel.

You are not alone. God wants to be intricately involved in your life—in the big and in the small, in the decisions and in the waiting. Psalm 37:23 says, “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way” (NKJV emphasis added). Simply put, God takes delight in your journey. He delights in every step. He loves to guide you and direct your steps.

God delights in giving you the opportunity to choose or make decisions. He delights in you as you invite Him into your important life decisions and difficult situations. He wants to be your Wonderful Counselor. He wants to give you guidance.

When was the last time you really brought God into your decision-making process? Today, bring your schedule, your goals, your work life, your home life, and your social life before the Lord.

Identify areas in your life where you are in need of the Lord’s counsel and guidance. I encourage you to be specific. Are you at a fork in the road in your career? Have you hit your wit’s end with your kids? What is that pressing circumstance in your life? Where do you need the Wonderful Counselor to guide you and illuminate the path He has for you?

Now let this prayer be a launching point into the rest of the day as you seek guidance from the Lord. You may want to pray it aloud.

Father,

Today, I need guidance. I confess I do not know which way to go. I confess on my own I am lost. But I desire to know and to do your will. Lead me in my decision-making. Guide me through this difficulty in my life. Illuminate my path. Show me the way I should go, and I will walk in it. Amen.

Now let Him speak back to you. Give Him space and time today to respond to your prayer.

About this Plan

Seek

SEEK is a season at Radiant Church where we minimize the distractions and routines of our lives to hear God’s voice and focus on what He is saying. When we turn down the volume, it has the supernatural effect of turning up the volume of God’s voice. We encourage you to intentionally spend time praying and fasting, remove a comfort that consumes your time, and dedicate to seek God's face.
