“I will lead the blind by a way they do not know, In paths they do not know I will guide them. I will make darkness into light before them And rugged places into plains. These are the things I will do, And I will not leave them undone.” - Isaiah 42:16 (NASB)
The blind are promised a guide; He is God. Those who do not
know the way He promises to guide them. These are the spiritually blind and they
have no means or power or even will to seek and find this way to God. Only God can
give them the sight to believe by faith and follow the right path. Our God is
anxious to help us as we live our lives here on earth. Notice that He promises
to lead us along unfamiliar paths. Is it dark in our life? God will provide the
light we need because in Him there is no darkness. Are the circumstances of our
lives make for rough going? God will smooth them out had help us through it. Look at the last two lines, “These are the
things I do, and I do not forsake them.” Our God shows us where to step and
which way to turn. He is our guide through difficult times, lonely times,
sorrowful times, and frightening times. During times of loss or when evil
threatens us God is with us, He promises to not forsake us. He is the light on
our dark and unfamiliar paths.
