THE NARROW PATH

” BUT THE GATEWAY TO LIFE IS VERY NARROW AND THE ROAD IS DIFFICULT AND ONLY A FEW EVER FIND IT. ” MATTHEW 7:14

Life on this earth is not easy. We are surrounded by a lot of different influences everyday. To be able to live a good and productive Christian life it is necessary that we put on the full armour of God. We live in a world where there is constant spirtual warefare. Things are going on around us that we are not aware of. Strange things happen that we don’t understand. We must live our lives in TRUTH, RIGHTEOUSNESS, and PEACE. We must pick up and use the SHIELD OF FAITH. And we should put on our SALVATION as a helmet, arm ourselves with the SWORD OF THE SPIRIT, which is the word of God, PRAY IN THE SPIRIT AT ALL TIMES, and BE PERSISTANT IN OUR PRAYERS. God has given us the tools we need in order to make our journey easier. We must, however, recognize that we are spritual beings living in human bodies. We are in constant battle with the evil of this world. As Matthew 7:14 indicates, this is not an easy journey. Only a few make it. The road is straight and narrow. Without great faith it is impossible. Let us concentrate on the spiritual things of the Lord and not of the worldy things going on around us. We must defeat doubt, worry and fear. We are children of our loving God in heaven. We must stand firm and fight all of the strategies of the devil and his evil army. BUILD UP YOUR FAITH AND BELIEVE YOU RECEIVE! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
