Have No Fear -- God Will Make a Way for You!

One of my favorite praise songs is "God Will Make a Way," where it speaks of God's care and provision for his people, and for you and for me:

God will make a way, Where there seems to be no way,
He works in ways we cannot see, He will make a way for me.
He will be my guide, Hold me closely to His side,
With love and strength for each new day, He will make a way, He will make a way.

By a roadway in the wilderness, He'll lead me
And rivers in the desert will I see, Heaven and earth will fade
But His Word will still remain, He will do something new today.

God will make a way,Where there seems to be no way.
He works in ways we cannot see, He will make a way for me.
He will be my guide, Hold me closely to His side,
With love and strength for each new day, He will make a way,
God will make a way!


This is the message we find throughout the Bible -- God will make a way. The story of the Hebrew people in Genesis and Exodus is that God will make way. It continues in Numbers and Joshua and on throughout the Old Testament. Pslams testifies, again and again, God will make a way. The story of Jesus is to show us that God has made a way!

The Bible is filled with stories and words of hope. No matter how hopeless, desperate, or dark your future may appear to be, may the truth of Jesus be yours today: God will find a way. Even where there appears to be no way, God will find a way.


Whatever your problem, give it to God in prayer. Let Him work in your behalf.

Do you and your spouse need to find a way to save your marriage? God will find a way.

Do you need a way out of difficult financial problems? God will find a way.

Do you need help dealing with an illness of your own or of someone you love? God will find a way.

Do you need to find a way out of a long tunnel of grief or sadness that seems to have no end? God will find a way.

Have you been unjustly accused? The truth will win out for you. God will find a way.

Do you need to receive forgiveness and assurance that God loves you despite some terrible thing you might have done? God will find a way to forgive you and give you eternal life. His name is Jesus.

No matter what you are facing: God will find a way.

God helped Mary and Joseph find a way to bring their precious child into a world that seemed stacked against them, and to save Him when they fled to Egypt. He gave Paul ways to escape when persecution was near. He did the same for David. He can do the same for you. God will find a way for you. That is our Christian hope. That is our Christian promise from our Loving God. Be still and know He is your God! (Psalm 46:10)
