This Is The Way
“I will exalt You, I will praise Your name, for You have done wonderful things, even purposes planned of old [and fulfilled] in faithfulness and truth.” When we purpose to do a thing in faithfulness and truth, we invite the hand of God to endorse it. Our God given plans, when followed lead to success on every turn. God’s purposes were planned long ago. He had things figured out even before the fall of mankind in the garden of Eden. As we include faithfulness and truth in our motives, that’s a whole other level of existence for many people. Most people are not totally honest with you or themselves. In many cases, they assume you’re as dishonest as they are and will treat you that way. Bad morals create bad behavior which lacks faithfulness and truthfulness. Having a plan in advance could mean the difference between success or failure. The mind of man plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps (Proverbs 16:9). The common denominator here is acknowledging the Lord in all our ways, and He will direct your path (Proverbs 3:6).
