THE STEPS OF A GOOD MAN

Scripture:  Psalm 37:23 “The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.”

    The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord.  He is in control of the way we should take.  I believe if we have a desire to, He will allow us to live for Him.  I believe, He will let us walk in the path that He wants us to be in.  He will let us follow Him!  Our Savior is our Guide through this old life.  The Bible is the map that shows us the way.  Many things along the way help us to stay on the right path.  He shows us the direction our lives should be going and gives us what we need to make the journey.  But it’s up to us to take those steps.  He lays them out for us.  We have to take the steps.
   He’s not going to make us walk the right way.  He’s not going to force us to live for Him.  That’s our choice.  We have to decide!  He will provide us with all the necessary things to walk the walk that will be pleasing to Him, but we have to be willing to use those things and walk that walk. Prayer is essential to making the right choices in our life.  If we don’t talk to Him and ask for His guidance, we can’t expect Him to lead us. The Bible has instructions that will guide us step by step, but if we don’t read it and heed it, we will never find the right path.    
     What a privilege to know that where He guides, He provides!  Where He leads, He meets the needs!  First Peter 2:21 says “For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:” Sometimes the path leads through suffering, but we must follow the steps that He has ordered for us.
