He Orders Your Steps
“The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps.”
PLAN IN PENCIL
The heart of man plans his way — and Scripture does not scold him for it. Make plans this year; just write them in pencil.
THE FINAL SAY
But the LORD establishes his steps — the final say belongs to Him. That is not a threat to your plans; it is their security.
SACRED DETOURS
When the route changes, God has not lost the map. Some of His best work in you begins as your detour.
OPEN HANDS
Open hands can still hold goals — they just refuse to clench. Surrender is not giving up your plans; it is giving them over.
ONE STEP'S LIGHT
He establishes steps, not a map of the whole year. God gives enough light for the next faithful step — take it.
PRAY THE LIST
Act: before breakfast, show God today's to-do list and pray over each line: 'Your steps, not mine.'
