Lost Steps

Joshua 1:5
No one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.

The Lord promised Joshua that he would be with him just as he was with Moses in leading the people of Israel. Even during the time of Moses when the Israelites first entered the desert, the people moved when the pillar cloud moved during the day and stopped wherever God's fire was lit at night. This was to show the Israelites that the Lord was with them. We have access to the Holy Spirit as our pillar cloud. But what about when we go ahead of Him or ignore Him? What happens to our lives? What happens to our peace of mind? What happens to our spirit? We all want the joy of having many blessings but when we walk away from the Lord or refuse to listen when he speaks, we stunt our blessings and our lives.
The Lord is always in the same place where we left Him. If we recount our steps and go back we can often find where we took the wrong the turn. So if we go back to that point, we will find the Lord waiting for us patiently.
We don't always cherish the Lord and His direction until we no longer have it. Where are you? Have you left the Lord? He's waiting for you so He can make things right.

AMEN PRAISE HIM!!!
