LIVE LIFE BY THE WAY OF GOD

Time belongs to God to live life by it, not by the clock of the world.
It is worthy to thank God for the grace of life bestowed on you so far.
Thank God for the new season of the year.
One who gives thanks for the grace of life should also pray not to live a life of waste.
In the new season, pray that you live by the way of God.
The way of God is in the direction of His word.
The word of God is God. (John:1:1)
God magnified His word above His name.
The word of God inhabits the way of God.
Obediently walking with God or walking before Him will not experience falling or failing in the life journey.
Why not meditate prayerfully to walk by the way of God?
One who walks in the way of God lives life by the way of God.
To obediently live by the way of God is not to live a life of waste.
Genesis 5:24 testifies, “Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.”
Genesis 6:9 testifies, “Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God.”
Genesis 17:1, “When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, ‘I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless.”
Walk with God, walk before God, and not live a life of waste.
Abraham walked before God, the character of one who is blameless.
It should be with a desire to walk with or walk before God?
It is one with a desire, not just determination, that will live by the way of God.
Evidently, to walk with or before God shall live a life that arrives at a divine assignment for life.
Are you living by the way of God?
A believer should not live in ignorance, but in knowledge of walking in the way of God.
Know the way of God.
In the calling of God over your life, do you care to know if God is going with you?
Go calls all.
The calling of God for all is to live life for the glory of God. (Revelation 4:11)
The calling of God comes with direction.
Without direction for the called, the called one will not walk in the way of God.
Just as God called Moses, so all are called for different assignments, but they all demand direction.
One who answers to the calling of God should not assume but ask to know the way of God.
For example, know how to ask for the way of God.
Moses, despite his experiences, asked God for direction in the way of God, and he received direction from God.
He needed to know for sure how God was going to go with him.
Moses asked God, “Then Moses said to the Lord, ‘See, You say to me, ‘Bring up this people.’ But You have not let me know whom You will send with me. Yet You have said, ‘I know you by name, and you have also found grace in My sight.’ Now therefore, I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight. And consider that this nation is Your people.” (Exodus 33:12-13)
Do you know if God is going with you?
Moses asked for direction without doubt, and not in complaint.
How are you asking God to know how He is going with you?
God responded to the question of Moses, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”
God is a good God who will answer when His children know how to ask with understanding.
Once, the Israelites were suffering at the hands of the Midianites.
While Gideon was in the business of preparing to hide from the hand of the Midianites, the Angel of the Lord showed up to Gideon, saying, “…The Lord is with you, you mighty man of valor!”(Judges 6:12)
Gideon responded to the word of God. The word of God inhabits the way of God over the life of Gideon.
Just like Moses, with understanding, Gideon was not in doubt but asked to know.
Asking with understanding is asking with faith.
With humility, he wanted to know if he was competent enough to be the servant of God, the calling of God.
Gideon was so humble when he responded to the assurance of God, stating,“…O my Lord, how can I save Israel? Indeed my clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father’s house.” (Judges 6:15)
The last response of Gideon prompted God to promise, stating, “…Surely I will be with you, and you shall defeat the Midianites as one man.” (Judges 6:16)
In the life journey, give attention to the word of God, the way of God, to gain and retain the presence of God. In answering the calling of God, in all endeavors, do not live a life of waste by not arriving at the calling of God.
Ask that you be enabled to ask with understanding.
