The Trailhead – Day 7

When we are walking with the Lord, God is working in us to do His will. You can know that your godly desires are being guided by the Lord. He is working to fulfill His good purpose in you and your life.

Notice in Philippians 2:13 that it says to will and to act. God helps produce desires in us that are following His will. He also gives us the energy to act on those desires so we fulfill His good purpose. Right before this verse, it says, "continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling." You can think of the phrase "fear and trembling" as "careful attention." We want to pay close attention to following God because it matters. This life we are living for God is important!

Are you paying close attention to your walk with God? If you've made it to this point in the devotional, you probably are! Now it's time to continue this journey. Allow God to work in your life by paying close attention to your faith. Guard it. Protect it. Grow it.

Pray and ask God to help you on this spiritual journey and for continued help growing deeper in your relationship with God. Stay connected with those who have been helping you get right with God and continue to be faithful to church. Ask God for wisdom in navigating a stronger faith.
