Blessed are those who keep His testimonies, who seek Him with the whole heart! Psalms 119.2

According to the Apostle Paul, the Lord conducts us in triumph (2 Corinthians 2:14). Well, we know that all things are made by Him for us, in us, and for us are registered in the Bible. The Creator reveals principles that can help any person reach the virtues of being successful in Him, one of them is to trail the paths of God, which are pure, upright and safe. However, men’s paths, or religion’s paths don’t guide us and conduct us to success.

Another important precept is to walk in the Lord’s commandments, in the revelation granted to us through the Scriptures. The understanding we acquire by reading the Bible or listening to a message is a heavenly commandment to whoever accepts Jesus in their heart. From then on, if you walk in that revelation, in a little time, you will find out what was lacking for you to have the necessary help in order to overcome your difficulties and bring into existence the promises of God.

The testimonies we receive in the Scriptures or in the teachings of the Word are very important, because they are given directly by the Most High. By fulfilling them, we put the eternal and great power of God to act in our favor. This is what our brothers from the biblical days did. When they went through difficult situations, they always came out victorious. The same treatment from God is available for those who believe.

Seek the Almighty with all your heart and you will stand out from all the other servants. If something in the Bible is against your will, don’t discard it. When the Word says something against what some brothers like to do, they despise it. It is a big mistake to shut yourself from the divine revelations. So, it is necessary to be aware so that you never act in such manner. Believe: the secret is not to limit yourself in knowing the Lord.

What isn’t good for you is not good for others. To treat someone the way you wouldn’t want to be treated is iniquity. With that in mind, keep this in your heart and work hard to fulfill the purpose of doing only what the Scriptures allow. Then, you will notice how much you have been helped by God in your battles. Besides, when you look back, you will see how good and fruitful your decision to not live in sin was. Halleluiah!

Why not trail the paths of God, next to Him at all times? In every second of the day, the Lord is found in the paths of equity. Those who walk away from it will suffer greatly, because they will be in darkness, stumbling everywhere. If we can walk without stumbling or falling, then why do we stay in the path of deceit? Your success depends on your decision.

From now on, you know how to act. Therefore, seek in the Lord the virtue to fulfill His revelations and, in short time, you will be someone who makes the Heavens rejoice. Don’t walk through the large door, which leads you to eternal loss. Reflect on this: The most important thing is to give up your eternal joy.

In Christ, with love,
