Psalm 25:14
“The secret of the Lord is with those who fear Him…”
There is a kind of intimacy with God that goes beyond trying to figure out His will. It is the intimacy of a surrendered heart — a heart that stands in awe of Him, trusts Him, and walks with Him.
The “fear of the Lord” in Scripture does not mean being afraid of Him. It means living in awe of Him — honoring Him, reverencing Him, and drawing near with a heart that wants nothing more than to please Him. This kind of awe opens the door to something deeper: God sharing His heart with us.
At the beginning of our Christian life, our prayers are full of requests. We ask God to guide us, protect us, help us, and show us His will. And this is good. Asking is part of walking with Him. It is a sign of humility and dependence.
But as we grow — as surrender becomes real and our hearts soften — we become more aware of Him. More sensitive to His nudges. More aligned with His desires. More yielded to His leading. And slowly, His will becomes our natural inclination.
This doesn’t mean we stop asking God for His will. It means we begin to recognize His voice more quickly, His peace more clearly, and His restraint more easily. We ask because we want to stay close. And as we walk with Him, the thought of choosing anything outside His will becomes unthinkable because He has shaped our desires.
When we stay surrendered to Him:
His peace helps us know when something is right.
His lack of peace helps us know when something is wrong.
His restraint stops us when we’re about to choose something He doesn’t want.
His presence makes us aware of Him in our everyday decisions.
God guides a surrendered heart from the inside.
The secret of the Lord is shared with those who walk in awe of Him.
Breath Prayer:
Lord, make me aware of You in all things.
