God will keep us in His ways

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.  Psalm 91:11 KJV

God is prepared to keep us in all our ways.  Many of us expect God to bring us out at last, but we have no thought of His keeping us in blamelessnes of soul.  We expect to be brought to heaven, but battered, beaten and despoiled on the way.  But surely our God does better us than that!  He can keep us from yielding to passionate temper, jealousy, hatred, pride and envy, as well as to the grosser forms of sin.

The promis is clear:  "He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways"--our business ways, our social ways, our ways of service into which God may lead us forth, our ways of sacrifice or suffering.

Let us simply and humbly ask for the fulfillment of the promises in this psalm.  He will answer your prayers.  He will be with you in trouble.  He will satisfy you with many years of life, or with ling much in a short time, and He will show you the wonders of His salvation.  F.B.  Meyer
