THE WAY by Wendy Kleker

“Your road led through the sea, Your pathway through the mighty waters. A pathway no one knew was there!

You led the people along that road, like a flock of sheep with Moses and Aaron as their shepherds,” Psalm 77:19-20

Sheep follow the voice of their shepherd. My shepherd is Jesus. He will lead me down pathways no one including me, knows are even there. It might lead through a sea where there is only water. Where I can’t see a path. Where the water is mighty and roaring with high waves.

He will make a way where there seems no way. He will make a path through the sea like He did for the Israelites. He will flatten mountains and shatter iron gates. He will guide me in places I didn’t think I could go.

It may not be easy, but He will make a path. He will be beside me helping. He will go before me preparing the way. He will come behind me protecting.

Where He leads I will follow.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord,” plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11

I wrote the above this morning, then I read my devotional and the title was:

GOD MAKES A WAY FOR YOU

“Don’t be afraid. Just stand still and watch the Lord rescue you today.

The Lord will fight for you.

Just stay calm!” Exodus 14:13-14

So it seems He wants to tell me something. He says:

“I am leading you where there seems no way, down a path that is hidden, in a place you do not expect.

The way may be difficult. You may experience troubled waters. You will need to hang on to Me and follow my every step, but it will be good.

You will not just survive, you will thrive.

You won’t just walk, you will shine.

You won’t just make it through the day you will sing.

I will give you a new song.

A new song of peace and joy and VICTORY!

“I will sing to the Lord, for He has triumphed gloriously.

He has hurled both horse and rider into the sea.

The Lord is my STRENGTH and my SONG.

He has given me VICTORY.” Exodus 15:1-2
