He pursues them and moves on unscathed, by a path his feet have not traveled before. (Isaiah:41:3)
How can someone travel a path for the first time with such an assurance and peace? It's possible to have such a level of peace to travel a new path only under two circumstances. Firstly, the path that he/she is going to travel is safe and there are no hidden dangers. Secondly, the person who is going to take that path for the first time in his/her life knows how the path is going to end. In the above verse, the Lord promises King Cyrus that he will travel a path that his feet had never travelled before yet he will move with peace.
Dear reader, you maybe on the verge of taking a new path that you have never travelled before. It could be a new job, new relationship, new position etc. This is the Lord talking to you right now assuring you that you will move in this new path with peace. Why? Because you know your God as "Jehovah Shalom" - God of peace and there are no hidden dangers. Most importantly, you know how this new beginning is going to end. We find that answer in Jeremiah:29:11 "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." God is promising you that He will give you an end that matches with your expectation. So, cheer up! Tread along this new path knowing that it will end just how you expected it to and go in peace for the God of peace is coming with you!
Blessings!
