When life feels impossible, it’s easy to feel lost or stuck. We wonder how we’ll get through it or if things will ever change. But the Bible gives us a promise that can never be broken—God will make a way.
God is the Way Maker. He opens doors no one can shut. He makes a path even in the middle of the wilderness. His ways are not our ways, and His timing is always perfect.
God Makes a Way Where There Is No Way
When the Israelites stood in front of the Red Sea, they had nowhere to go. Behind them was Pharaoh’s army. In front of them was the water. But God didn’t leave them trapped. He parted the sea.
“The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” — Exodus 14:14
“Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all that night the Lord drove the sea back with a strong east wind and turned it into dry land.” — Exodus 14:21
God still does that today. He makes a way through our problems, even if we can’t see it right away.
His Ways Are Higher Than Ours
Sometimes, we don’t understand how God will help us. But we’re not called to understand everything—we’re called to trust Him.
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. — Isaiah 55:8
“As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” — Isaiah 55:9
God sees the big picture. He knows what we need and when we need it.
God Will Provide
God doesn’t just make a way; He provides for us along the way. When Abraham needed a ram in place of his son Isaac, God provided it.
“So Abraham called that place The Lord Will Provide. And to this day it is said, ‘On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.’” — Genesis 22:14
Whatever we’re lacking—hope, strength, direction, or daily needs—God is able to meet it.
Trusting God in Hard Times
When we’re in the middle of the storm, trusting God can be hard. But even in the darkest seasons, we can hold on to His promises.
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” — Proverbs 3:5-6
God’s help doesn’t always look the way we expect. Sometimes the path is longer than we hoped. But He is always working behind the scenes.
Jesus Is the Way
God didn’t just make a way—He is the way. Jesus came to give us eternal life and to walk with us through every moment of this life.
“Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’” — John 14:6
When we feel like there’s no way forward, we can look to Jesus. He will guide us, heal us, and walk with us through every valley.

Final Thoughts
No matter what you’re facing, remember this—God will make a way. You might not see it yet. You might feel like you’re stuck. But the same God who split the sea, shut the mouths of lions, and walked on water is still moving today.
Keep praying. Keep trusting. Keep walking by faith.
God will make a way, even when there seems to be no way.
