Welcome to Selah—a sacred pause in the noise of life.
 I invite you to find a quiet spot, free from distractions, where you can fully focus on God’s presence.
 As we move through this meditation, engage your heart and mind—visualize the scriptures, let the words take root in your soul, and repeat the prayers.
 Close your eyes.
 Take a deep breath in...
 Exhale...

"Quiet my heart, Lord. Help me to be fully present with You.
 I rest in the knowledge that You are here, shaping me, molding me, and completing a good work in me."


I breathe in slowly, and as I exhale, I let go of my fear of the unknown.
I imagine myself at the edge of a road I’ve never walked before.
It’s winding, uncertain, and stretches far beyond what I can see.

I feel the weight of worry pressing on my shoulders—
 â€śWhat lies ahead?”
 â€śWill I be alone?”
 But then, I sense something shift.

The Lord Himself is here.
 He takes a step ahead of me, steady and sure.
 He turns to look at me with kindness and strength in His eyes.
 And I hear His voice speak straight to my soul:
 â€śThe Lord Himself goes before you and will be with you;
 He will never leave you nor forsake you.
 Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”

I take another breath.
 I let those words take root:
 God goes before me.
 God is with me.
 God will never leave me.


I whisper this prayer from the deepest part of my heart:
"God, You see what I cannot see.
You stand in the places I have not yet walked.
You go before me into every conversation, every challenge, every unknown."

I take a breath and imagine the presence of God walking ahead of me—clearing the path, calming the chaos, lighting the way.
 I see Him walking beside me—steady, close, faithful.

"You are not a distant God.
 You are near.
 You are never absent.
 You are never late.
 You will not leave me, and You will not forget me."

I surrender fear.
 I release discouragement.
 I rest in the truth that I will never walk alone.

"You are before me.
 You are with me.
 You will not leave me."


I take another deep breath in...
As I inhale, I breathe in courage, peace, and trust.
As I exhale, I release fear, anxiety, and doubt.

I anchor my soul in these truths:
 "God goes before me into the unknown."
 "He walks beside me through every moment."
 "He will never leave or forsake me."
 "I do not have to be afraid or discouraged."

Breathe in…
 Hold…
 Breathe out…

"Today, I will walk with confidence in God’s presence.
 Today, I will rest in the assurance that I am not alone.
 Today, I will face the future with peace, knowing that God has already gone before me."

Another deep breath in…
 Hold…
 Exhale slowly, resting in the nearness of God.

"Thank You, Father, for going before me.
 Thank You for walking with me.
 Thank You for never leaving my side.
 Because of You, I am not afraid.
 Because of You, I am not discouraged."


Thank You, Father, for this moment to pause and rest in Your Word.
I remember that Selah is an invitation—to stop, reflect, and be strengthened in Your presence.
Through stillness, scripture, and strength, I find the hope I need.
Until next time, I will stay in Your presence and let hope overflow.
Selah.
