When will I let go of everything I know and just go? (Proverbs 3:5-6)
God calls everyone of us to live by faith. Living by faith means we don’t have it all figured out. Often we have no idea how we will do or carry out what God is asking us to do. God has a purpose and a plan for everyone of us. He doesn’t tell us everything we need to know from the beginning of that call. He asks us to trust Him and obey, like Abraham did when he went to the place God was showing him. Hebrews 11 tells us, Abraham went out, not knowing where he was going. True faith is not a blind faith, it’s a trusting and hopeful faith. It is the evidence of things not seen. It means trusting God to guide our every step; one step at a time.
His word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path (psalm 119:105). Being grounded in His word will provide the step by step faith that is necessary to follow Him in His calling. Each step taken in faith invites us to take the next step by faith. Each step of faith leads us to walking by faith. Stepping out in faith and walking in faith are the product of trusting and obeying Him; that still small voice that say,
“I will guide you my right hand, provide for you and lead you to where you need to be; where I want to go be.”
Faith obeys and goes. Fear says “stay here where you are, because it’s safe and comfortable.”
