The Proverb Challenge: Day 16

The Proverb Challenge
Day 16

There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
Proverbs 16:25 KJV

Today verse is one of my favourite scriptures. I called it a caution verse. It is a warning verse to everyone. Do not be deceived, not all that glitters is gold. 

Don't follow a path simply because it is beautiful, rich etc. Don't be blinded by attractions. Get to know the real deal. 

There are so many ways to make money but Wisdom will tell you that most of those ways leads to nothing but destruction. 

There come a time in our lives that we assume we can do it on our own, that we can decide and choose for ourselves. Truth is you might be right or wrong. Because it is shining doesn't make it the way. Because it is smooth doesn't make it right.

The ways of carelessness, of worldliness, and of sensuality, seem right to those that walk in them; but self-deceivers prove self-destroyers.

So What Way lead to Life?
Jesus said He is the Way, the truth and the life. Every other way leads to nothing but everlasting death.

The only way that leads to life is Jesus. When you have Jesus, you have life. The only way that won't lead to death is Jesus. He is anti-death. 

In this end times, the devil has its own way, the flesh has its own way, all those ways lead to nothing but death. 

Choose the Jesus Way, Choose life over death.

Main Point: Not all that glitters is gold

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive.  When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me...

You are good and do good;....  - Psalm 119:68  Few months back, I came across an inspiring song by Jason David who happens to be a pastor.  He was diagnosed with cancer. After a year-long fight with cancer that claimed much of his tongue, Pastor Jason David refuses to stop singing. "These Walls" is an original worship song he wrote that became his anthem as he fought through several surgeries, chemotherapy & radiation. For someone going through challenges; financial, health, marital, academic, whatever it may be, I pray this song will bless you - no matter what walls or mountains you may face, God is greater & God is good!  Below are the lyrics of the song: Verse: You are greater than these walls I'm circling  You are stronger than these army  I see You are bigger than these mountains that I faced And I will choose only to praise You.
