God's promises those who walk in His paths rewards and rest for their souls.
So what are some of those rewards if we decide like Jeremiah to risk it all for the reward God promises us?
We can be sure that we will arrive at the proper destination! When we take the Lord's highway, we can be sure that it will end in His presence!
Matthew 7:14 (NIV) "But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."
Mattthew 25:21 (NIV) "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'"
We can travel in safety knowing that the Lord is guarding our way. Not only will we end up where we want to be, but we will get there in the safest, most peaceful manner possible.
Psalm 91:10-12 (KJV) "10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. 12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone."
We can know that while we are on the Lord's path, the deepest needs of our soul will be met! There will be fellowship with Him and joy in His presence at the end of the way!
Psalm 37:4 (NIV) "Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart"
Those who fail to ask for the old paths will find themselves walking in the ways of destruction and misery.
Proverbs 22:28 (KJV) " Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set."
Isaiah, Jeremiah, Jesus just to name a few have all given us truths that have been handed down through the ages. The Bible is a Library of 66 books of truth God gave us to lead us and guide us through this life.
When we turn our backs on the way God has chosen as the right way, we will find that the way is difficult, and there is no peace or safety. The destination God's desires for us is far from harm, He wants us with Him. God has always desired fellowship with us.
There is a reward for those who will walk in the Lord's pathway!
Jeremiah 6:16 (KJV) "16 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. But they said, We will not walk therein.
Tomorrow we will look at the final point from Jeremiah 6:16 REFUSAL.
