GOD'S WAY


GOD’S WAY


 



 
Dear children of God let us turn from our ways to God’s way; for my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. Let us follow the God’s way which leads to the eternity. Jesus said that I am the way truth and the life; no one come to the father except by me. There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death. All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the spirit. Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the heart. Thus says the Lord, your redeemer, the Holy one of Israel: “I am the Lord your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you in the way you should go.

 


MAN’S WAYS: - Man likes and chooses the short root or way to reach the eternity and high pleasures. Again man likes and chooses the fast tracks and ways to enjoy the life. Man’ way is perverse before God; so God will come out to oppose our way. God found that Balaam’s way was perverse in his sight; so he got angry and he had come out to oppose him. He opened the donkey’s mouth to reveal his foolishness and wrong way against God. The angel of the Lord was standing against in the way of Balaam, with his drawn sword in his hand.

The lord knows the way of the righteous, but the Man’s ways are before the eyes of the Lord, and he ponders all his paths. The window of my house I have seen among the simple, I have perceived among the youths, a young man lacking sense, passing along the street near the forbidden woman corner, taking the road to her house, in the twilight, in the evening, at the time of night and darkness. All at once he follows her, as an ox goes to the slaughter, or as a stag is caught fast till an arrow pierces its liver; as a bird rushes into a snare; he does not know that it will cost him his life. Dear brothers and sisters, let not your heart turn aside to her Or his ways; do not stray into her or his paths, for many a victim has she or he laid low, and all her or his slain are a mighty throng. Her house is the way of Sheol, going down to the chambers of death.

 Rejoice, o young man, woman, in youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth. Walk in the ways of your heart and the sight of your eyes. But know that all these things God will bring you into judgement.my son, give your heart, and let your eyes observe my ways. For a prostitute is a deep pit; an adulteress is a narrow well. She lies in wait like a robber and increases the traitors among the mankind. The next way of man is towards the wine shop or tasmark in Tamil Nadu. Who has woe? Who has sorrow? Who has strife? Who has complaining? Who has wounds without cause? Who has redness of eyes? Those who are tarrying long over wine those who go to try mixed wine every morning. Man‘s way brings lot of problem in the family, society and the country. Broken homes, divorced families, shattered children, murders, rapes, calamity and other evil things are happening only because of man’s self-conscious ways. When man forgets the God conscious way, then he or she goes under traits and turmoil. God made us as watchman to alert the people by word of God to warn them to turn from their ways. If we warn the wicked man or woman to turn from their way, and he or she does not turn from his or her way, that person will die in his or her iniquity, but we will have deliver our soul. Let us turn to the God’s way which entirely different from our way. Sometime it may seem to be very hard to follow or to accept it in our life, but it’s true that his ways are perfect and good for us; if we once find out.




GOD’S WAY: - God’s way is holy; his way was through the sea, and his path through the great waters; yet his footprints were unseen. Thus says the Lord, your redeemer, the Holy one of Israel; “I am the Lord your God, who teaches you profit, who leads you in the way you should Go. Again he says that I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eyes upon you. Moses prayed to God; now therefore, if I have found favor in your sight, please show me now your ways. God answered and said that you cannot lead this people alone in the wilderness; because there is a sword and other dangers are ahead. God said my presence shall go before you to lead you ahead.

Dear friends, it is easy to reach the land of milk and honey by crossing the Philistine’s nation; it is a shortcut root. But God did not allow them to cross the Philistine’s nation. Within few days they could have crossed the Philistine’s nation to reach the milk and honey land. But There awaited a danger of wars and other evil things were ahead to stop the Journey. Man wants to see the immediate goods; but God sees the future goods that are unseen. When all the side of your way is blocked? then do not knock the shut ways; but just turn to God’ way which is always opened. God’s way through the red sea was prepared for the people of Israel.

A young mother shared with me about her life’s problems, and she said that if I look ahead I see the problems are roaring against me, and if I turn back the loans are chasing me. And she agonized and said one side my deceased husband and other side gone astray young boy. These are the problems we may face today like this young mother in our self-conscious way. Today God wants us to turn to the God conscious way, where God leads the way. The path of the righteous is level; you make level the way of the righteous. Build up, build up, prepare the way, and remove every obstruction from my people’s way.

Dear children of God, God leads and guides us each and every day in his planned way, so there won’t be any obstacles. Only by faith let us hold the pierced hand of Jesus who says I am the way truth and life. No one can come to my father except by me. He will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone. Dear friends if you are blessed to choose God’s way then you will find solace in that. And kindly, share the best of God’s way to others and send a word to my email ID. revsjc@gmail.com, revsjc12@hotmail.com, johnchelliah857@yahoo.com,
