Daily Sacrifice, March 24 (37:23)
“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and He delighteth in his way”— Psalms 37:23.
ELSEWHERE David prayed, “Order my steps in Thy Word.” This is the only path of safety through a defiling world. The Word of God is a light on the road, showing up every danger and snare and indicating the right places upon which to place our feet. The words of the Apostle John may well be taken as from the Lord Himself, “I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.”
Some one noticed that in George Muller’s Bible he had written in the margin opposite this verse, and as following after steps, “and the stops.” Our steps and our stops are alike ordered of the Lord as we allow Him to guide by His Word.
