Job
23:10, “But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me,
I shall come forth as gold. 11 My foot hath held his steps, his way
have I kept, and not declined. 12 Neither have I gone back from the
commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more
than my necessary food.”
As
I observe the behavior of the world around me, I must conclude there
seems to be a mad dash of lost humanity into their eternal destiny
without regard for the preservation of their eternal souls. Life is
precious and a gift from God. No one has the right to take away that
gift! We are living in an era when a majority of people support the
killing of innocent children in the womb and then are horrified when
someone takes a gun to school and massacres those innocent lives. Our
world has created an atmosphere in which reverence for life has
been greatly diminished for some and for others it is destroyed
altogether. The weight is heavy upon us to sound the alarm and awaken
lost humanity to the consequences of our apathy in this arena of
life. We cannot attach value to life in one instance while devaluing
life in another! We are reaping the result of our inconsistencies.
It
is time to take a stand! As disciples of Jesus Christ, we must
proclaim the call of God to come back to the principles of His Word.
The path before us is unknown, however, the way ahead is not
uncharted territory. We have never been this way before, but we can
proceed with full assurance that God knows where we are going. God
has something to say and a work to perform in this generation! If we
have covenanted to walk with Him, we are going where He is going. God
has gone before us and created our map in the Lord Jesus Christ. He
is the Way! John 14:6, “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the
truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” If
we follow Him, He will lead us in His path. He knows the way we
should take!
There
is no need to flounder in a climate of indecision when the answer is
with us. Let us not be deterred by the uncertainties that lie before
us but concern ourselves with the cause of Jesus Christ. He loves
each and every person and has placed great value on each soul by
giving His own life to bring life to the lifeless. We may not know
the specifics of our future but we can be sure that if our faith is
in the saving grace of the cross, we will finish well! God Knows The
Way We Should Take!
