The Path Of Life . Sunday, November 15th . Pastor Chris

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore (Psalm 16:11).

The Apostle Peter, in quoting the same scripture above moved from the prophetic to the fulfillment, and quoted it differently. Rather than say, "Thou wilt shew me the path of life…" he said, "THOU HAST MADE KNOWN TO ME THE WAYS OF LIFE; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance" (Acts 2:28).

The Greek word translated "countenance" is "prosopon," which actually means "presence." It mostly means "thy face," and it's akin to saying, "Beholding the face of the Lord." But it stands also for the word "presence," which is in sync with what the Psalmist said. So, what was the psalmist talking about when he said, "Thou wilt shew me the path of life?"

It means God has planned a great life for each one of us; He's prepared the path that we should go, and how we should live. It's a path of glory. No wonder He says, "But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day" (Proverbs 4:18).

Sadly, there're people who always find themselves in the direction or way of failure; things just don't go right with them, and they think that's the destiny God has for them; no! Everyone has a right to a great life. So it's a choice that you must make. Some people think God chooses those He blesses. When He chooses not to bless you, there's nothing you can do about it; but He's not that way. Jesus died to save everybody!

John 3:16 says, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." No one should live a defeated life, be miserable, poor, or fail anymore. The result of Christ's vicarious sacrifice on your behalf is the life of glory (1 Peter 1:11). However, many don't know this; that's why we preach the Gospel, so that all men may know, and come into their inheritance in Christ Jesus, walking in the path of glory.

PRAYER

Dear Father, I thank you for guiding me through your Word in the path of victory and excellence. I'm yielded to the Holy Spirit, who opens my eyes to see, and directs my steps in the paths of greatness that you've prepared for me! I yield myself completely to your guidance, counsel and wisdom, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

Further Study: || Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. ||

|| Isaiah 30:21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left. ||

|| Ephesians 2:10 AMP For we are God's [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live]. ||
