How We Move Forward
We are called as believers to “do the right thing” in life. When we are faced with challenges, then we are given the opportunity to respond to those challenges based on the truth before us. That truth is provided to us through the scriptures. If we elect to follow that truth, then we will find ourselves in God’s paths of righteousness When He judges, we will be found to be with Him, and the rest that is shaken will have no effect on us. Those that end up on another path, either by choice or by accident, may have new choices to choose to be on the right path. These are the choices set before us in life.
Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
20 That thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
This is the very thing that Moses was speaking about. We need to make sure that we move forward with diligence and with integrity. We have a limited amount of time on this earth. If we call out to Yahuah, He will answer us and make things right in our lives. It may not be the easy choice up front, but it will be the right choice long term.
I love Yahuah. It is moments like these that help me to see what a loving Father He really is. He is always willing to help us when we try. Alone we are weak vessels. Alone we will fail. Even in this life if we succeed but have not surrendered all to our Father and called upon the name of Yeshua the Son, then we will be ultimately lost. At the end of time, we will either serve God, or we will not exist.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. Today I have a greater need for Your kingdom in my life. I am saddened at the conditions here. So many call evil good and good evil. We need You. The land needs You. Please send us today Your abundant provision. Forgive us our sins. Help us to Your paths of righteousness. We need to be on those paths to make things right. Help us to learn Your ways above all others. With You we can make our way through life. Without You we cannot. Father there are so many evils in this world. How do we make it through uncontaminated? We grew up in this surrounding and are trained to see things in a certain light. I am overwhelmed when I think of what I don’t know that I may not know. This is Your creation Father. Please do not turn away. Please send Your angels to deliver us. Help us. Heal us. Open the eyes of those that do not see. We ask all these things in the name of Yeshua (Jesus). Amen.
