Are your steps taking you in the right direction? Proverbs 16:7, says “the road of right living bypasses evil, watch your step. Save your life.” Wisdom encourages us to give due consideration to every step. Proverbs 14:12 says that “the prudent considers well his steps” and Proverbs 14:16 says, “the wise watch their steps.” Each Proverb challenges us not to underestimate the importance of each and every step.
Our steps both figuratively and literally have the potential to bring about such blessing and breakthroughs but can also result in much pain and heartache. King David is a great example of this. His steps as a young man directed him to courageously defeat Goliath, but a little later in life his steps resulted in an adulterous affair with Bathsheba. If he had wisely considered his steps that day, he may not have gone to ‘visit’ her, and prevented the series of tragedies that followed.
"If I keep my eyes on God, I won't trip over my own feet" Psalm 25:15
It's highly beneficial to our future to understand the significance of each and every step, because life consequently and simply is the result of a series of steps. Steps in the right direction lead to fulfilling the perfect will of God for your life.
"Christ, leaving us an example that you should follow in His footsteps" 1 Peter 2:21
