April 9

Then I, God, will burst all confinements and lead them out into the open. They’ll follow their King.  I will be out in front leading them”. Micah 2:13 (MSG)

Walls can be big and seemingly insurmountable; obstacles of every kind want to hold you back, or press you in.  Circumstances, situations, devastations can rise up, enemies all around and yet, here is your Saviour God, who comes for you, fights for you, and leads you to the wide-open places of freedom and love.
 
No matter how high the barriers may be, your Redeemer is in your midst, and He is mighty to save.  Nothing is too difficult or too hard.  The water may be rising on every side and the way of escape may seem blocked but simply
call on your Glorious King, who will scoop you up in His strong arms, and do for you what only He can do. 
 
Trust Him, treasured one.  It’s true.
 
Prayer:
 
Abba Father, I have gone down some roads that were not Your best; took some winding paths leading to despair; and got myself locked up in some pretty unhappy and unhealthy situations.
 
Holy Spirit, I ask today, would You guide me today into the wide-open places of Your love?  I lay out the pieces of my life before You and ask that You would lead me in the paths of Your pleasure.  Yahweh, hide me under the canopy of your kindness and care.
 
Break in Lord, to all the places I am held back, and lead me into the large places You have planned. Where You go Lord, is where I want to be too.
 
In the powerful Name of Jesus, I ask and pray.
