“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going. Thomas said to him, Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way? Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him. Philip said to him, Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us. Jesus said to him, have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, show us the Father? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves. Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do, and greater works than these will he do because I am going to the Father.” John 14:1-12

God will not leave you to go alone when He sends you on a mission; He will not let you remain alone when you are on the right way; He will not allow the enemies or any of the distracters in your life to keep you away the blessings that will follow the assignment and the reward that you are entitled to in keeping on the right way with clean hands while truly following Him. Did you know the God who made the way had promised to lead you through that way not to follow you? In leading He goes ahead not behind; in leading He removes things that will make you fall or cause shame; in going before you, He fights the unseen battles on your behave, and in leading He makes sure the way is the right way to your destined glory. He never fails in leadership and will never fail in leading you; He never misses direction or causes unnecessary delays, frustrations or panic attack on the ways He leads. All He says is that you will hold your peace, keep your focus and trust, and believe and obey Him always for He goes before you always to make a way and prepare the bounty that will give Him glory in your life. David said in Psalm 23:1 that the Lord is his shepherd and Jesus said in John 10:11-16: “I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His own life for the sheep. But the hired man who merely serves for wages, who is neither the shepherd nor the owner of the sheep, when he sees the wolf coming, deserts the flock and runs away; and the wolf snatches the sheep and scatters them. The man runs because he is a hired hand who serves only for wages and is not concerned about the safety of the sheep. I am the Good Shepherd, and I know My own and My own know Me even as the Father knows Me and I know the Father, and I lay down My life for the benefit of the sheep.” John 10:4-5 “When he has brought all his own sheep outside, he walks on ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice and recognize his call.They will never follow a stranger, but will run away from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.” Through the salvation you have received from Christ Jesus, you will not hear the voices that are contrary God’s plans for your life again or follow the ways of the enemies of our destiny again; you will hear the voice of the Good Shepherd, you will see the way He leads, you will follow Him and you will reach the high mark of your salvation and calling and gift in Christ Jesus. He will take you through the demands, the rough places, the tough, and the unstable places on that way; He will guide your steps and your heart through the right ways; He knows how to keep you safe and protected, and He knows how to bless you in that way beyond the measures that men will set for you. He said He is the way and you will not miss the destiny He had set for you. For Prayers, Click here
