Never Stray Far from Me
Misunderstandings are a part of life. But my Truth cannot be compromised with your way of life. Your life needs to continuously align with my way of thinking and not be compromised by the ways of the world. Do not ask yourself, “what would Jesus do” but ask yourself, “what did Jesus do?”
The ways of this world have become so engrained in my people that they do not even distinguish good from evil. There is so much mixture in and among my people that they have no true example to follow. I tell you not to look to man, but to look to me for everything. I will show you the way to live and the way to conduct your life.
Learn from the example I set before you, not the actions of other men. I am your guide and your conductor on how to lead your life. Step away from taking the wheel and let my Spirit guide you in the most excellent way to live. You are wasting your time listening to what others have advised you to do when you should be listening only to me.
Catch your breath and take a step back and reassess your life. Approach my throne and hear my words spoken to you alone guiding and leading your life. The choices you make can lead to messy situations and it is best to consult me first than to clean up your messes later.
What does it profit a man to gain the whole world yet lose his own soul in the process? What can you gain from human popularity when your entire purpose is to being me glory? You think you are pleasing me but in reality, you seek the praises of men. Check your heart and see what I see and learn to walk alongside of me. I discipline those I love so they can become more like me.
Pride rises up in those who have elevated themselves to a greater degree. But my hand will fall heavy upon your head humbling you before me. It is better for a man to take the humbled position than to find a way to be above all the others. Who are you to call the shots? Do you know better than the Father? Understand your position in the Kingdom and that you serve only me.
Keep a close watch on your heart. Guard yourself from the flattery of men. Rid yourself of all your pride, for pride comes before a fall. I will guide and lead you on a path of righteousness for all the world to see. There will be much acclamation and praise for those my Father says, “well done good and faithful servant.” Keep your eyes on me and keep in step with me walking in the ways of YAHWEH. Be my faithful servant to the end and never stray far from me.
