There is a path before each person that seems right,
but it ends in death.
Only simpletons believe everything they’re told!
The prudent carefully consider their steps.
—Proverbs 14:12, 15 (NLT)
Heavenly Father,
Save me from the world of lies that now surrounds me and help me carefully consider my steps—so that I don’t take a path that seems right to me now, only to find out it ends in death!
The world would say, “Follow your heart!” But I am not a simpleton! I know the Truth from Your Word, that even my heart cannot be trusted.
So, let me put all my hope in Your Word, and trust the Holy Spirit to guide me into all Truth—as I willingly and obediently follow His every prompting.
Help me always choose the path that leads to the life that You have for me and fulfill Your purpose for me within Your great plan for humanity.
Save me from the world of lies that now surrounds me and help me carefully consider my steps—so that I don’t take a path that seems right to me now, only to find out it ends in death!
In the name of Jesus, Amen.
