Jeremiah 6:16 King James Version (KJV)
16 Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
Dear Friends,
The prophet had declared previously that a great national calamity was imminent. He instructed the people to stand and seek advice as to what direction they should move in. He proclaimed the Word of the Lord:
- Stand ye in the ways and
- See
- and
- ask
- for the old paths
- where is
- the good way
- and
- walk therein
They were given good advice but they rejected it and chose to go their own way.
The Father knows best. God gives us directions that are for our good. This is true even when it hurts. Proverbs 3 tells us to trust in the Lord and lean not unto our own understanding. Why? The Father knows best.
We are told in the Word: Be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath. Why?
The Father knows best. We are told not to be wise in our own eyes but to fear the Lord and depart from evil. Why? The Father knows best.
We are told: He who has an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. Why? The Father knows best.
The decision you are facing...the job you seek...the relationship you desire...whatever the path...please remember to consult The Father. The Father knows best.
God Bless!
in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie
