Encouragement and Prayer: A Good Path! (2/19/25)

~

This is the audio from the February 19, 2025 live social media broadcast of encouragement and prayer by Impact Prayer Ministry’s director, Tom Lemler.

“Enter through the narrow gate.  For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.  But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”
Matthew 7:13-14 (NIV)

This week we will focus our prayer time on finding, walking, and proclaiming the correct path.  If you’ve ever followed a path or road which abruptly ended in a place no where near your intended destination, you likely understand the importance of following the correct path.  While Jesus states few will find the correct path, it is not because the path is hidden but rather many are not looking for it.  Pray that you would actively seek God’s guidance as you spend time in His Word and in prayer.  Pray that your life would be evident to others in a way which points them to Jesus as the path of life.  Pray for wisdom in avoiding all the enticements of the path of destruction.  Pray for the humility to repent and change when you discover the path you are on is not correct.

“Then you will understand what is right and just and fair — every good path.”
Proverbs 2:9 (NIV)

As you pray this week, ask God to help you know the path which leads to life so that you can walk on it every day.  Pray that you would turn to God, rather than to the world, for an understanding of what is truly right, just, and fair.  Pray that you would find the goodness of God displayed in your life as you walk the path set forth by Him.  Pray that you would know the goodness of a life which treats others fairly.
