Walk with God

When we trust in God and walk under His will, we do well, because God is the one who cleans the way for us to walk without fear even though we pass through that dark valley, because the Lord takes us by the hand and walks with us.

We are sure that the Psalmist David was fully confident in Almighty God, in spite of all the enemies he had against him, who wanted to destroy him. But he was sure about something and it was that the Lord walked with him.

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will guide you with My eye.

Psalm 32:8

There is only one who can show us the way we should walk and that is God, who tells us where there is danger, and it is for this reason that we should be confident as a lion, because if God is with us, who will make us front? God is the one who walks with us and is the one who will help us overcome.

What should we do when we do not know a way and it is dangerous? The right thing to do is to look for someone who knows where this path leads and what are the dangers in their path. In this dark path the enemy can destroy us if we are alone, but if we walk hand in hand with God, everything will be fine.

Do not be like the horse or like the mule,
Which have no understanding,
Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle,
Else they will not come near you.

Psalm 32:9

It is good to be wise and let ourselves be guided by God at all times, because He knows what is best for us and what is not best for us. God knows everything that is around us. Let’s walk confident in God, He is our helper.

Trusting in God is not only a beautiful expression of faith; it is a lifestyle of complete dependence on His wisdom. Many times we face decisions that seem simple but end up affecting our entire future. That is why we must allow God to lead us, because He sees what we do not see and knows what we cannot understand. His guidance is perfect, and His plans always lead us toward growth, restoration and spiritual strength.

Throughout the Bible we find countless examples of men and women who succeeded only because they allowed God to guide their steps. Whenever Israel ignored the voice of the Lord, they suffered loss, confusion, and defeat. But when they listened and surrendered their will to Him, the Lord opened paths where there were none and gave them victory in the midst of impossible circumstances. This continues to be true today. God has not changed; He is the same faithful Shepherd who leads His people in righteousness.

Walking under God’s direction is not about living without problems. David himself went through storms, betrayals, battles and moments of deep anguish. Yet he could say, “The Lord is my Shepherd,” because even in the valley of the shadow of death he perceived the presence of God sustaining him. Likewise, in our moments of fear and uncertainty, God walks beside us, strengthening our hearts and giving us peace when everything around us seems chaotic.

Letting ourselves be guided by God also means developing a sensitive heart, willing to listen and obey. The mule and the horse mentioned in the psalm represent stubbornness and resistance, attitudes that only lead us to unnecessary suffering. But a humble and teachable heart becomes fertile ground for God’s direction. The one who listens to God’s voice will never walk in darkness, because the Lord Himself becomes a lamp for his feet and a light for his path.

Therefore, let us walk with confidence, knowing that God goes before us. Every path He prepares has a purpose, even if at first we do not understand it. When we surrender our will to Him, He straightens our steps, protects our lives, and fills us with strength to face any adversity. Trusting in God is the safest decision we can make, because His guidance never fails and His love sustains us every day.
