Show us the Way(s) Lord!

In the days that we are currently living in many people are seeking guidance. Seeking guidance from books and other people, but the true self-help book is the Bible! Our paths may look differently, but the word of God is the true source of direction and guidance. Many people look at other people's paths and think that is the way to go, but in the word of God it speaks of paths, not just one path!

Clearly in Proverbs 3:6 it says, In all thy ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct thy paths.

It doesn't say in all thy way and one path, because as life goes on we change our minds, hopefully as we learn God's ways more and find clearer direction.

Then in Psalm 23:3 the word says, He refreshes and restores my soul; He leads me in then paths of righteousness for His name's sake.

So, even in this walk of life with Christ there are more than one clear path? Some are teachers, preachers, deacons, missionaries, and some are just church members seeking God's will for our lives. Our paths are not the same, but God will be there to help us all!

In Jeremiah 29:11 the word says, For I know the plans and thoughts I have for you,' says the Lord,' plans for peace and well-being and not disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

Again there's the word plans in the word of God, a clear indication that there's more than one path. 

In Isaiah 30:21 the word says, Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, "This is the way; walk in it."

As we navigate through life we have to decide what direction is best for us. Is it to the right, or is it to the left? Having the Holy Spirit will guide us as we walk therein! We may not know presently, but ask the Lord for directions and word His word to find a clear answer.

In Psalms 20:4 it says, May he grant you your heart's desire And fulfill all your plans.

We have free will to do things in life, but we should do things that are in God's perfect will for our lives. Our desires should line up with God's will. As we navigate this life God wants to grant us the desire of our heart and fulfill our plans. His eyes are moving to and fro throughout the Earth so that He may support those whose heart is completely His. 

Then in Psalm 25:4 the word says, Shew me thy ways, O Lord; Teach me thy paths.

We are not alone in this life navigation. We can ask the Lord to direct us by His teaching as we study the word of God! So, if your path doesn't look like your fellow brother do not be dismayed. Walk your path and ask the Lord to guide you in all your ways, for He is there to help you along your path(s)!

The Good Shepherd!

There are so many example of how the Lord is our shepherd and how we should follow him! As sheep we can be lost, but He will leave the others to find us. As sheep we can need calm waters and green grass, and the good shepherd will provide. As sheep we always need guidance and direction in this life on Earth, and again the good shepherd will provide a roadmap for this journey! In one of the most common verses referring to sheep, The 23 Psalm, the word says, The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me besides the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of shadow of death, I will not fear no evil: for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of...

Give Attention To Your Words!

We were made in the image of God, and in His likeness we have power in our words! In Genesis 1:3 God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light. What are we giving light or life to with our words? Greater is He that is in us, than he that is in the world! We have world overcoming power in our words! As Romans 4:17 says, we can calleth those things which be not as though they were!  In Psalm 33: 6 &9 The word says, By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; And all the host of them by the breath of His mouth. For He spake, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast. What words are you putting out there to create and develop? Are you speaking negative words or are your speaking positive words? Speak life and live! In Psalm 119:105 The word says, Thy word is a lamp unto my feet. And a light unto my path. What words are you following and letting guide your feet? Is it the word of God? Is it generational paths that no longer serve you or your family? Give way t...

Being Mindful of Whom We Entertain!

As the Holiday Season is coming up many people are getting invites to family and friends homes. Fellowship with other believers is always good and pleasant, but are we just entertaining with the righteous? Are we entertaining those that have bad influence on us? Here are a few scriptures to guide your fellowships going forward! The word says in Luke 6:28 to bless and show kindness to those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. But that does not mean we have to entertain and fellowship with them! God is love and we are to walk in love with all, but letting people into our homes and place of peace is different! Matthew 7:6 says, Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. We as believers have to be mindful what we give unto others, especially when it is giving of ourselves! Sinners do not treasure what believers treasure, and they do not hold what we as believers hold ...
