When life feels overwhelming, uncertain, or hopeless, it’s easy to wonder if there’s any way out. Whether facing personal struggles, financial hardships, or the trials of everyday life, we can often feel trapped with no clear solution in sight. However, the Bible offers a profound promise that God will make a way, even when there seems to be no way. Throughout Scripture, we see countless examples of God’s faithfulness in making a path where none appeared to exist, providing hope, guidance, and deliverance in times of difficulty.
In this article, we will explore 25 Bible verses that remind us of this powerful truth. These verses show that, regardless of the circumstances, God is faithful to lead us, protect us, and provide for us. As we meditate on these scriptures, we can find strength and reassurance that God will indeed make a way for us, no matter how impossible the situation may seem.
1. Isaiah 43:19 – “Behold, I will do a new thing”
