Sanctified Steps: Walking In Faith| 2 Corinthians 5:7 (KJV)

Scripture:

"For we walk by faith, not by sight." — 2 Corinthians 5:7 (KJV)

Devotional:

Walking in faith is a journey that requires trust and perseverance. It means relying on God's promises and guidance even when the path ahead is unclear. 2 Corinthians 5:7 KJV) encourages us to walk by faith and not by sight, reminding us that our faith should guide our steps, not our limited human perspective.

In our daily lives, we often encounter situations that challenge our faith. We may face uncertainties, fears, and doubts that make it difficult to move forward. However, when we choose to walk in faith, we acknowledge that God is in control and that His plans for us are good.

Consider the story of Abraham, who was called by God to leave his home and go to a land he did not know. Despite the uncertainties, Abraham trusted God and obeyed. His faith was not in what he could see but in the God who had called him. As a result, Abraham became the father of many nations and a model of faith for us all.

Reflect on your own life and the steps of faith you have taken. How has God led you and provided for you in ways you could not have imagined? Use these reflections to strengthen your faith and trust in Him.

Reflection:

Think about a time when you had to rely on faith to make a decision. How did God support and guide you through that situation? Reflect on His faithfulness and let it encourage you to trust Him in your current circumstances.

Daily Wisdom Insight: 

Walking in faith means letting go of our need for control and trusting in God's perfect timing and wisdom. It requires us to believe that God is working behind the scenes, even when we cannot see the full picture. Remember, faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1).

Application: 

Today, practice walking in faith by surrendering your worries and fears to God. Ask Him to guide your steps and provide clarity in your decisions. Trust that He is with you and will lead you on the right path, even if you cannot see the destination.

Prayer:

Lord, help me to walk by faith and not by sight. Give me the courage to trust in Your plans and to follow Your guidance, even when the way is unclear. Strengthen my faith and help me to rely on Your promises. Amen.
