The Safe Path
PREFACE
The book; The Safe Path endeavours to encourage all on the way to their promised land to employ the truth written in the scriptures, and practised by past saints and became victorious, to follow likewise and obtain a good report. Hear God directly; Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, (The Safe Path) where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. Jere 6:16 His presence with us guarantees a safe path. What makes a way safe, may not necessarily mean that they are no dangers, but the truth that your protection is fortified to overcome it. The book; The Safe Path will help you to enjoy this promised blessing of Christ's name; And they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. Mat 1:23 Put another way, The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe Pro 18:10 Jacob discovered and walked in the safe path. Gen 28:16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not. Without true knowledge, fear and a tragic fall is inevitable. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge. Hos 4:6This caused Israel's destruction on their way to the promised land, when they refused to acknowledge the protection of God around them in all situations, both day and night. And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night: Exo 13:21-22 The saints of old enjoyed this safe path through relationship with Him. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. Isa 54:17 The Safe Path is your heritage, but you must claim it.
Elisha told his servant; Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.2Kg 6:16 Christ reiterated; Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you Lk 10:19.and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Mat 28:20 .There are 365 'fear not' in the Bible, which implies that with God on your side the journey of life will automatically become a Safe Path, therefore, fear not.
DEDICATION
This book is dedicated to The Everlasting God, The Lord, The Creator of the ends of the earth, who faints not, neither is weary who gives power to the faint; and increases the strength of those that have no might, that they may triumph over all challenges of life.If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say; If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us: Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us: Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul: Then the proud waters had gone over our soul. Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth. Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped. Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth. Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Ps 124:1-8
