Lord Where Should my Footsteps Tread?

Psalm 17:5
Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.
One of the biggest questions today, I believe, on the minds of those in the Church is “Am I walking the correct path to Jesus Christ (Yahshua) or have I gotten it wrong so long that I can’t see the correct path?” Proverbs 14:12 says “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Are you on the path to death? With the influx of so many different doctrines and belief systems, the average believer and would be believer will be hard pressed to find the real path to salvation.

In the Word we read in Isaiah 26:3 that “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.” In Galatians 6:3 we find “For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.” The Word is very clear about this concerning out walk with Him. Further in 1 Corinthians 10:12-15 we find:

Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry. I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.

We know this yoke in our walk with God is easy, and the burden in our life walk we all share is light.

Matthew 11:29-30

Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

However, we are constantly in the way of our walk. We either are bound by our emotional soul and flesh in conflict, or bound by a spiritual soul conflict. If we give our conflict to Him, He will teach us how to go through the conflict in our walk. So that next time you will go through it with a “well done my good and faithful servant.” You’ll say, “now Lord, I’m ready for the next test or trail.”

Psalm 37:23

The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.

This goes for women as well. In this world, our footsteps have got to be ordered by God through Jesus Christ (Yahshua Messiah) our Lord and Savior! In order to cope with the entanglement of this sinful and adulteress generation, your steps must be ordered. You can’t do this by yourself, but we are all to help one another.

Titus 3:8-9

This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men. But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

In conclusion, a hunter when pursuing a bear, looks for its tracks. If the hunter comes across deer tracks, would he stop and begin to pursue the deer? Would the hunter so soon forget that he is a bear hunter? The goal is not to change who or what you are to suit the tracks, but continue on your path and look for the bear tracks. You will be lead to the completion of your initial plans.
