Proverbs 4:26
Ponder the path of thy feet,
and let all thy ways be established.
Direction determines destination. The best indicator of where you'll end up is what direction you're currently headed. If your feet are facing east, then further east is a reasonable expectation of where you'll be by the day's end. Unless you're walking backwards. In which case, turn around. Unless you're approaching Medusa. In which case, you've got bigger problems.
"A destination is meaningless, however, without directions on how to get there." -- John Wooden, Wooden on Leadership
You must know where you want to go and you must point your feet in that direction, but there remains a need for guidance on how to traverse the obstacles of the path, how to make it uphill without giving up or downhill without slipping and falling head over heels. Direction then requires directions. Not just where to go, but how to go about it.
God, in His Word, has given us clear instruction as to the destination at which we should aim, the direction in which we should go and the directions on how to ensure that we get there.

day no. 15,782: calling upon the armies to march
Exodus 6:26
These are that Aaron and Moses, to whom the Lord said, "Bring out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt according to their armies."
While reading Toby Sumpter's Blood-Bought World, he commented on the passage above by saying,
"The word for 'armies' or 'hosts' is tsabaoth. It's used six time in the book of Exodus, and it never refers to soldiers of Pharaoh. It always refers to the children of Israel. Let that sink in. The story of the Exodus is not merely a rescue story. It is not merely an emancipation story. It's a conquest story. We tend to think the king of Egypt as a paranoid despot, greedy and consolidating. But his fear that 'there falleth out any war' and they might 'join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of the land.' (Exod. 1:10) actually turns out to have been ironic prescience. Yahweh is the 'enemy' whom the Pharaoh chose to pick a fight with, and He did declare war on Egypt. And Israel was drawn into the fight, joined this enemy of Egypt, and did get them up out of the land."
The children of Israel were organized by military divisions. They were perceived to be a threat to Egypt because they would all fight for the same team, under the same banner, and Pharaoh suspected that banner would not be the jersey of his franchise. He was right. He produced his very fear by poking the bear when he provoked the Lord of hosts to march His hosts out of Egypt. God led them through the sea and into the promised land and Pharaoh and his men, for their part, were left vanquished and underwater. God called His armies to march and as they obeyed by faith, putting one foot in front of the other, they stepped into freedom.
Later Sumpter goes on to say,
"But what about Pharaoh's armies? As Pharaoh's heart completely hardens and he realized what he has done in allowing Israel to leave, he assembles his chariots and captains. 'But the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them encamping by the sea' (14:9). Only Pharaoh does not actually have an 'army.' The Hebrews says that he has 'strength.' Or again the Lord say, 'And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them; and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen' (14:17). And yet, the Hebrew actually says that Pharaoh has chariots and horsemen, but strictly speaking he has no 'host.' Again, the word is 'strength.' Only Yahweh has a host. Only the Lord has armies. Pharaoh has chariots and captains and horsemen and his own strength. But Pharaoh has no armies."
The world relies upon its own strength and wields it wildly in response to its disorganized cravings and desires. The children of Israel, the armies of God, march according to their military divisions, in an orderly fashion, under control, under authority, under God. Chaos cannot march, it can only riot; but the meek follow footsteps into the well-ordered and established land of promise.
These are that Aaron and Moses, to whom the Lord said, "Bring out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt according to their armies."

day no. 15,781: the blessing of Rebekah, mother of millions
Genesis 24:60
And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, "Thou art our sister, be thou the mother of thousands of millions, and let thy seed possess the gate of those which hate them."
Now that's how you give a toast; what a wedding speech! -- not merely sweet talk sentimentality reminiscing and relaying personal anecdotes, but vision casting, blessing, faith and the future.
May my daughters be the mothers of thousands of millions. May they all be their mother's daughters in every sense of the word. May they inherit their faith, wisdom, and beauty and walk in the steps of their ancestors. May they turn a profit on what God has accomplished in this lifetime and advance the leaven through the lump more and more in each successive generation and through them. May they all vote one direction. May their convictions be nuanced and fitted to the times in which they will be born and timeless in being derived from the foundation of Jesus Christ and His apostles. May all those who oppose our great grandchildren be defeated by the grace of God and the grit and gratitude of our progeny. May the seed of the serpent be pushed back and may the gates of his kingdom not prevail against the onslaught of the faithful. May my daughter's be mothers of millions who will be resurrected to inherit the earth. May our numbers swell and cover God's green earth the way waters cover the deeps. May the blessing of Rebekah fall upon you my daughters and may the grace of God all that you do and those who will exist because of our faithfulness in fruit-bearing and child-rearing now.
And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, "Thou art our sister, be thou the mother of thousands of millions, and let thy seed possess the gate of those which hate them."

day no. 15,780: the prodigal sons of the republic
Luke 15:11-14
And he said, A certain man had two sons: and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living. And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living. And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
America is like the prodigal son. She was born into a good home built upon Christian principles. And when she grew too big for her britches, she was given her portion of the fortune on demand. But the fortune was the Father's doing. She left the protection of her Father's house and began squandering her inheritance making friends with the world. But the riches, with no source now to replenish them, began to dwindle and the bank account evaporated.
May America, like the prodigal son, find herself feeding the swine and wishing for something more, something that it used to possess, something that, Lord willing, could again be hers if she merely repented and returned in a spirit of submission.
And may the other America, the older sibling, back on the ranch, dutifully doing what has been required and enjoying the blessing of the Father's house, not resent the younger if and when she returns in humility -- for the riches she squandered, while lost opportunities, do not diminish the Father's ability to produce more.

But the riches, with no source now to replenish them, began to dwindle and the bank account evaporated.
This is our current cultural moment. All of our freedoms were inherited from the house in which America grew up, yet she has despised its foundation and abandoned them, wasting its riches on entertaining worldly friends. So America is poor and a famine of righteousness has begun to descend upon the land. America has not yet reached the point of want, however. She knows something is wrong and she can feel that she is broke, but hasn't hit rock bottom yet. She still refuses to turn her eyes back to her home. She still insists somehow that her upbringing is the reason she is going broke. So, rather than seeking to humbly return, she is conspiring with the world to make an assault on her former home to find more riches.
May America, like the prodigal son, find herself feeding the swine and wishing for something more, something that it used to possess, something that, Lord willing, could again be hers if she merely repented and returned in a spirit of submission.

day no. 15,779: turnt or burnt?
"Ephraim is a cake not turned" - Hosea 7:8
"A cake not turned is uncooked on one side; and so Ephraim was, in many respects, untouched by divine grace: though there was some partial obedience, there was very much rebellion left. My soul, I charge thee, see whether this be thy case. Art thou thorough in the things of God? Has grace gone through the very centre of thy being so as to be felt in its divine operations in all thy powers, thy actions, thy words, and thy thoughts? To be sanctified, spirit, soul, and body, should be thine aim and prayer; and although sanctification may not be perfect in thee anywhere in degree, yet it must be universal in its action; there must not be the appearance of holiness in one place and reigning sin in another, else thou, too, wilt be a cake not turned.
A cake not turned is soon burnt on the side nearest the fire, and although no man can have too much religion, there are some who seem burnt black with bigoted zeal for that part of truth which they have received, or are charred to a cinder with a vainglorious Pharisaic ostentation of those religious performances which suit their humour. The assumed appearance of superior sanctity frequently accompanies a total absence of all vital godliness. The saint in public is a devil in private. He deals in flour by day and in soot by night. The cake which is burned on one side, is dough on the other.
If it be so with me, O Lord, turn me! Turn my unsanctified nature to the fire of thy love and let it feel the sacred glow, and let my burnt side cool a little while I learn my own weakness and want of heat when I am removed from thy heavenly flame. Let me not be found a double-minded man, but one entirely under the powerful influence of reigning grace; for well I know if I am left like a cake unturned, and am not on both sides the subject of thy grace, I must be consumed forever amid everlasting burnings." — Charles Haddon Spurgeon, Morning and Evening
