Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies; In You I take shelter. Teach me to do Your will, For You [are] my God; Your Spirit [is] good. Lead me in the land of uprightness. Psalm 143:9-10 NKJV
Where do you turn when life becomes disrupted and uncertain? If going into hiding sounds like a good plan, the Psalms agree, to a point. Seasons of instability and fear are opportunities to discover where you place your hope, and the Psalms encourage you to hide yourself in God alone, placing all your hope in God’s provision.
There are plenty of opportunities to hedge your bets. The life of faith is full of detours and missteps, and you will surely need God’s grace on plenty of occasions.
If you hope to be transformed by the Lord, then you will need God’s instruction and guidance. You’ve been given the Spirit of God, and you can ask boldly for the wisdom and change of heart that will enable you to live differently.
As life throws obstacles and unexpected twists in your way, the Spirit of God can lead you to the security of level ground. That will allow you to stand firm in the presence of God with confidence and peace.
Prayer: Lord, I depend on You alone to defend me. May I hear Your Spirit with clarity today so that I can find the stability You provide.
