Psalm 25

From God’s Word
I love it when I have time for extended time in God’s Word. Like last Saturday, I was reading in the Psalms and stumbled on a gem: Psalm 25. It was just what I needed because I’m desperately seeking God’s direction for Moody Radio and for my own leadership role. Here are the phrases in Psalm 25 that leaped from the page into my mind and heart:

I trust in you, Lord. (v. 2)
No one who trusts in you will ever be disgraced. (v.3)
Show me the path where I should walk, O Lord. (v. 4)
Lead me by your truth and teach me. (v. 5)
All day long I put my hope in you. (v. 5)
He shows the proper path to those who go astray (v. 8)
He leads the humble in what is right, teaching them His way. (v. 9)
The Lord leads with his unfailing love and faithfulness. (v. 10)
He will show them the path they should chose. (v. 12)
They will live in prosperity. (v. 13)
My eyes are always looking to the Lord for help. (v. 15)
May integrity and honesty protect me. (v. 21)

Each week a group of us gather to Stand Up and Pray. Our chief purpose in praying together is to seek God’s direction and guidance for ourselves and for our ministy. Psalm 25 assures me we’re on the right path when we ask His direction in this way. And may your life and ministry prosper as you trust God for His direction in all you do.
