Lead us in the way everlasting...

Eze 33:31  And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee as my people, and they hear thy words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they shew much love, but their heart goeth after their covetousness.

Is this how most people are today? Most Christians? I can't say, but I can say my Bible tells me that most are following the BROAD path that leads to destruction. My Bible tells me FEW are going to truly go the narrow way. When I read the Bible and it tells me those things, I cannot in all honesty pretend that the majority of people are God's- I can't!  I'd LOVE to believe that everyone will be saved. I'd really love to believe that any who claim to follow Christ will be saved. I want to believe, but I can't unless I'm wanting to believe a lie.  How many sit before God and hear God's words but DO NOT DO THEM?  How many sit before God and with their words spout nothing but love for Him, yet there is NO love in their hearts for God because their hearts are filled with covetousness?  WE have to examine ourselves! We have to examine our own walk with Christ. We do NOT want to be found among those who believe they are God's but are not!  We don't want that!  We need God to search our hearts!

Psa 139:23  Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:
Psa 139:24  And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

We need to pray this prayer over and over and over again, endlessly! 

Search us, God!
Know our hearts!
Try us!
Know our thoughts!
See if there is any wicked way in us!
And LEAD us in the way everlasting!


We know our tendency towards the wicked is great. And I'm not talking wickedness that is blatantly apparent. The hidden wickedness that lives in our hearts that creeps in our thoughts, that makes us rotten from the inside out. Please God, please … LEAD US IN THE WAY EVERLASTING.  All through our Savior, Jesus Christ, our Lord, now and forever! Amen!
