Father, You set down the path on which I should go. You tell me not to turn to the right nor to the left, but to follow your lead. You desire me to walk in righteousness, and You redeem me when I repent for turning aside. Thank You for providing the map for me. Sometimes, the journey gets treacherous and dark, but You are the light that shows me where to step. Your peace out paces any earthly sense, because it surges to the depth of my soul. Allow me to sit on the banks of this river of peace forever. I seek your favor and blessing in the name and authority of Jesus, according to your good and perfect will. Amen.
“Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: ‘I am the Lord your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you in the way you should go. Oh that you had paid attention to my commandments! Then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea; your offspring would have been like the sand, and your descendants like its grains; their name would never be cut off or destroyed from before me.’” (Isaiah 48: 17-19 ESV)
