In what way are you walking and in what direction?
• Pro 15:24 -> “To the wise the way of life goeth upward, That he may depart from Sheol beneath.”.
What “way of life” is this?
• Pro 6:23 -> “For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life;”.
I know that nobody likes to be upbraided. Let alone when this reprimand threatens some pleasure of the flesh. It’s the case, for example of those who entangle themselves with the whore:
• Pro 2:18 -> “For her house bows down to death, and her paths to the dead.”
• Pro 5:5 -> “Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell,”
• Pro 7:27 -> “Her house is the way to hell, going down to the rooms of death.”
Once the way of the goes upward, let’s care only about what is from above:
• Col 3:1,2 -> “If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God. Be mindful of things above, not on things on the earth.”.
After all, our citizenship and blessings come from the heaven:
• Php 3:20 -> “For our citizenship is in Heaven, from which also we are looking for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,”.
• Eph 1:3 -> “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenlies in Christ;”.
• 2Pe 1:3 -> “according as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who has called us to glory and virtue,”.
So, have a good day choosing the Way of Life (Deut 30:19; Jer 21:8), that is to say, Jesus Christ (John 14:6), so that you can stay in the right place: in the secret place of the Most High (Ps 91:1). However, be careful not to use the Way of Life to walk downward, that it to say, to increase your profit on the Earth (instead of in heaven)!!!
