Going Where God Directs

 

Today's verse is Deuteronomy 31:6

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

    Just before this, God promises that he would go before thee, to destroy these nations from before thee, and here we see the promise that God would be with thee (the people of Israel, and as we can see by the pronoun, individually.) Know this, these people had a command from God, and for this cause, they were to be strong and of a good courage. Do you know what the God that created Heaven and Earth desires of thee (yes, you, personally.) If you do not know, search the pages of His Book, His Word, find the things he requires of us all, and do them, and when the time is right, he will let you know what plan he has for you, and to what purpose you shall accomplish. And even as now, as you do what you find in God’s word, he will not only go before you to prepare the way, but he will go with you in the midst of the fight. Even as he promised and did with Israel, as they entered, and took possession of the Promised Land. Amen.

To God be the Glory
