He said he would not go through the wilderness before his people,<br \/>an angel should go before them to lead them in the way; but Moses said,<br \/>&#8220;If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.&#8221; Christian, God<br \/>has not left you in your earthly pilgrimage to an angel&#8217;s guidance: he<br \/>himself leads the van. You may not see the cloudy, fiery pillar, but<br \/>Jehovah will never forsake you. Notice the word shall-&#8220;The Lord shall<br \/>guide thee.&#8221; How certain this makes it! How sure it is that God will<br \/>not forsake us! His precious &#8220;shalls&#8221; and &#8220;wills&#8221; are better than men&#8217;s<br \/>oaths. &#8220;I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.&#8221; Then observe the<br \/>adverb continually. We are not merely to be guided sometimes, but we<br \/>are to have a perpetual monitor; not occasionally to be left to our own<br \/>understanding, and so to wander, but we are continually to hear the<br \/>guiding voice of the Great Shepherd; and if we follow close at his<br \/>heels, we shall not err, but be led by a right way to a city to dwell<br \/>in. If you have to change your position in life; if you have to<br \/>emigrate to distant shores; if it should happen that you are cast into<br \/>poverty, or uplifted suddenly into a more responsible position than the<br \/>one you now occupy; if you are thrown among strangers, or cast among<br \/>foes, yet tremble not, for &#8220;the Lord shall guide thee continually.&#8221;<br \/>There are no dilemmas out of which you shall not be delivered if you<br \/>live near to God, and your heart be kept warm with holy love. He goes<br \/>not amiss who goes in the company of God. Like Enoch, walk with God,<br \/>and you cannot mistake your road. You have infallible wisdom to direct<br \/>you, immutable love to comfort you, and eternal power to defend you.<br \/>&#8220;Jehovah&#8221;-mark the word-&#8220;Jehovah shall guide thee continually.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;And the LORD shall guide thee continually.&#8221;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#8212; Isaiah 58:11 &#8220;The Lord shall guide thee.&#8221; Not an angel, but JEHOVAH shall guidethee.
