Don't stray

 Don't stray, BEFORE IT'S LATE!



Jeremiah. 7: 23-24 “But I commanded them, saying, Give ear to my voice, and I will be your God, and you will be my people; and walk all the way that I send you, that it may be well with you. But they did not hear, nor bowed their ears, but walked on their own counsels, for the purpose of their evil heart; and walked backwards, not forward. ”

 There is only one way for human beings to walk - going forward. But how have you been? Forward or backward? Some believers live in a circle - they have the impression that they are moving and moving, but if you look closely, you will see a hole through which you have walked and no difference in your situation.

Jesus is our security on the way
Mark 10:46 -52 And they went to Jericho. When he left Jericho, along with his disciples and a large crowd, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the side of the road.

The word of God teaches us to stay on the path and keep on the path and not on the side of the path. What is on the side of the road, the edges of the road, are those who go outside, those who are on the side of the road are vulnerable to many dangers, because the way to heaven is straight, Jesus is that way and not in it at shortcuts, detours, alleys, it is a straight road and those who walk the path are within the purpose and protected by God. When you walk in the path of God you have security.

Others manage to walk in a circle even in their spiritual life - at a certain moment, they are eager to seek and worship God, but soon, they are inside the church murmuring with Him.
To go in circles is to make money and soon to lose what you have just achieved, it is to start a longed-for relationship and soon find yourself alone again, it is to find a good job and, without a doubt, to be unemployed again.

But even worse are those who go backwards - in a good financial moment then they soon lose everything due to financial problems - literally traced the reverse path of growth. They start well and return to the worst.
Hosea 11: 7 For my people are inclined to turn away from me; although they call the Most High, none of them exalt him.
1 Timothy 5:15 For some have gone astray, going after Satan.

Proceed with utmost attention to your character, do not leave any lies along the way, much less a sign of debt or sin, because whoever continues to leave traces will, at some point, have to look back and come back to clean up, clean up all the accumulated dirt wherever he went. Understand that we are all born to advance and take possession of new spiritual territories. And to move forward means to go after God, He has to go ahead.
