"Honoring God in the Morning"
A Step of Faith
by Joyce Meyer - posted October 18, 2013
A man’s mind plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps and makes them sure.
—Proverbs 16:9
There are times in life when you must take a step in order to find out, one way or the other, what you should do. Some doors will never open unless you move toward them.
At other times you may take a step and find that God will not open the door. If you trust Him for guidance and the door opens easily, you can trust that He is leading you to enter into the opportunity before you.
Sometimes the only way to discover God’s will is to practice “stepping out and finding out.” If you have prayed about a situation and still don’t know what you should do, take a step of faith.
We can stand before an automatic door at a supermarket and look at it all day, but it won’t open until we step forward to trigger the mechanism.
Trust God, take a step, and see if the door opens!
