The Father Knows Best


"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."
   - Jeremiah 6:16 cf

 Dear Friends,

 The Father knows best.  In the scripture text from Jeremiah it is the Lord who instructs: Stand in the ways, and see.  Stand in the ways.  The path that God has set out is a clear path.  Of course, bramble bushes and thorn and over grown grass and weeds may at times block the way. Yet, the path is clear.
Trust Me.  Follow Me. Believe Me.  Stand in Me.  The Father knows best.

 Standing in the Lord provides clear vision.  This standing requires studying the Word of God.  The Word of God is a clear path.  Standing in the Word, being rooted and grounded in the Word allows us to "see."  Not traveling blindly through. We are following directions issues by God. The Father knows best.

 Ask for the old paths. Psalms, hymns spiritual songs.
Meeting with other believers for prayer.  Prayer meeting.  Order of service.  Decently and in order.
There are some that call the old paths mere tradition.
God knows.  The old paths, the historical perspective, from generation to generation, He is God.  The Father knows best.

 "Ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls."

 The Father knows best.

 God bless!
in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie

  Psalms 46:1   “God  is our  refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Help.  God is my Help. Always present…in trouble and in triumph.  Help.

Constantly replenishing. Help. God is My Help. God bless. In Christ, Sis. Stephanie

THE WHAT AND THE SOEVER

  Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things  are honest , whatsoever things  are  just, whatsoever things  are  pure, whatsoever things  are  lovely, whatsoever things  are  of good report; if  there be  any virtue, and if  there be  any praise, think on these things.” The truth is Jesus. Honestly. This is a fact. Scripture declares Him to be. The Way, the Truth, the Life. His ways are holy and just. His Word is pure. He is altogether lovely. Focusing on the whatsoever things is to abide in the peace of God. Thoughts centered on bountiful blessings. Determined to dwell on the goodness of God rather than the constant chaos perpetrated by the enemy of our souls. The What is also the Who.  He is the King of Kings. He is the Lord of Lords. Matchless in power and might. He is the Faithful and True. He holds the balance in His Hands. God weighs the intent of the heart. True Hones...

Believing God

  Philippians 1:6 “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform  it  until the day of Jesus Christ:” Preparing for the next chapter. Cleaning the clutter inside and out.  Reevaluating priorities.  Seeking a revival.  Believing God.  Slowing down a bit.  Focusing on spiritual wellness.  Taking care of my business.  Exercising faith.  Believing God. Stopping to view the sunrise.  Appreciating the sunset.  Planting flowers.  Picking some… Believing God.  Being thankful.  Being kind.  Being… Just being. Believing God.  God bless. In Christ, Sis.
