Do you desire to grow?
Be careful not to grow beyond the measure of faith that the Creator imparted to you (see Rom 12:3,6).
• Pro 15:19 -> “The way of the lazy one is like a hedge of thorns, but the way of the righteous is made plain.”.
The way of the righteous isn’t downward (so that they didn’t need to comply with bad ordinances); it isn’t upward too (so that they don’t need to worry about things that are very wonderful to them, what is abomination before the Creator – Job 42:2; Ps 131:1; Luke 16:15).
At first, sounds good to walk in a spacious way. Nevertheless, remember what Jesus said:
• Mat 7:13,14 -> “Go in through the narrow gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many there are who go in through it. Because narrow is the gate and constricted is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.”.
The best thing to do is:
• Pro 3:5,6 -> “Trust in Jehovah with all your heart, and lean not to your own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he will direct thy paths.”.
After all, if instead of acknowledging Him in our ways we trust in the riches hardly ever we will enter into the kingdom of the Creator (Luke 18:24).
So, let’s ask the Creator:
• Psa 27:11 -> “Teach me thy way, O Jehovah; And lead me in a plain path, Because of mine enemies.”.
• Psa 5:8 -> “Lead me, O Jehovah, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; Make thy way straight before my face.”.
Our enemies are trying to suck or overcome and overwhelm us. However, if we fear the Creator:
• Psa 25:12 -> “What man is he who fears Jehovah? He shall teach him in the way that he shall choose.”.
• Isa 30:20,21 -> “And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be hidden anymore, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers; and thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it; when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.”.
The way of the Creator is so perfect that, who stay in it, even the fool, will never err:
• Isa 35:8 -> “And a highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but is shall be for the redeemed: the wayfaring men, yea fools, shall not err therein.
Good and upright is the Creator and He wishes to instruct sinners in the way (Ps 25:8). Nonetheless, the question is: are we interested in learn this? Or do we insist on walking in high ways?
If we have good eyes, understanding and ken, we will be able to see the plain and right way of the Creator at any situation wherein we are living:
• Psa 8:8,9 -> “The birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, and all that pass through the paths of the seas. They are all plain to him that understandeth, And right to them that find knowledge.”.
So, have a good day always seeking the plain and right way of the Creator amid the temptation and storm that arise in your life (Nahum 1:3; 1Cor 10:13).
