Hidden Treasures
Tuesday, April 29
Deuteronomy 29:29 (NIV)
“The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law.”
Devotion
There are seasons when the path ahead feels blurred, when the questions outweigh the answers, and when life seems to be a series of unknowns. We wonder why certain doors close, why unexpected storms arise, or why dreams seem delayed. Yet in the midst of uncertainty, Deuteronomy 29:29 reminds us of a beautiful, unshakable truth: God knows what we do not.
The "secret things", the whys, the hows, the timings all belong to Him. He sees the full picture when we only glimpse a single view. And though He may not reveal every detail, He has given us enough through His Word, His promises and His presence. These are our anchors.
Even when we cannot trace His hand, we can trust His heart. His sovereignty is steady. His goodness is not shaken by our circumstances. In the high moments when dreams are fulfilled, and in the low valleys where tears fall, His faithfulness prevails. He is working, weaving every season, joyful or painful, into a masterpiece of redemption and purpose.
We are not called to figure out every step. We are called to follow, to trust, and to obey what He has revealed. His character is constant, and His plans are for our ultimate good.
Today, rest in the confidence that you are held by a God who sees the end from the beginning. He is good. He is faithful. And even when you cannot see the path, you can trust the One who leads you.
Today’s Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank You that the hidden things belong to You. Even when I don't understand the way You are leading me, I choose to trust in Your goodness and faithfulness. Help me to walk in obedience to what You have revealed and to rest in the assurance that You are sovereign over every season of my life. In the Name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
Apply It Today
Instead of obsessing over the "why" or "when," focus your heart on worship, obedience, and thanksgiving. Trust grows when we respond to mystery with surrender, and we strengthen our faith when we remind ourselves daily that God's goodness and faithfulness are not dependent on our understanding.
