Now you shall say to this people, ‘Thus says the Lord: “Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death’
Jeremiah 21.8
It's amazing, but many people haven't given their full attention to the Word of God and have gone down paths shown to them by the devil. This is serious! Man was made to walk with the Most High, absolute Lord over all things. Human beings are responsible for all the evil practiced on earth. If God's servants dedicated themselves to speaking of Christ's love and teaching how to use His Name, they would lead the lost to the Light!
There are two paths before us and which will we follow? The holy and powerful Word makes a difference in our lives, because it teaches us to act like Jesus, healing the sick and freeing the oppressed from the unfruitful works of darkness (John 14.12). The Lord requires us to present Him to the people. In this way, the world will be better and we will live well. But near Christ's return, things will get worse!
Jesus showed us how to behave. In the days of the Master's ministry, the Roman Empire did what it wanted in Israel; after all, it had conquered not only Judah, but also the whole region and, with an iron fist, made everyone submit to Rome. However, not once did the Son of God speak out against Rome, encouraging the people to pray for the liberation of their country. Only this would happen when the true Gospel was known by everyone in the Promised Land.
They could choose the path of life, knowing the Savior and doing His will, or be a sinner without limits. Now, the Kingdom of God is not of this world, so we don't need to have the slightest involvement with the things of this life. By serving the Lord, we will receive from Him the resources we need to work in His harvest. Those who love God know how to fulfill God's commands and never what the devil urges them to do.
There is nothing better than using the Name above every name (Philippians 2:9-11). Before this Name, the angels in Heaven, men on Earth and demons - who, figuratively speaking, are under the earth - will bow their knees and confess that Jesus is Lord to the glory of God. Obey God's will and the Father will bring the solution to humanity's problems, bringing everyone the knowledge of the Truth and the blessings inherent in salvation. You will be collaborating with the nation!
Whoever chooses the path of life makes the best choice. With God in charge, you will never be prevented from loving Him. Our love for the Lord is different from the love of religious people because, when we are born again, we understand the will of the Most High for us and the people around us. We are not interested in material goods, but in everyone receiving Jesus as their Savior. That's all man can achieve here.
Taking the road to death, on the other hand, is the worst decision. Those who do this live far from God, as if He were not love. Furthermore, they never receive healing for their ills or live a righteous life before the Lord. If you follow this path, be sure that you will go to eternal perdition, from where you will never come out. Give yourself to Christ now and do good!
In Christ, with love,

Today's Prayer
God of the gift of life! By receiving Jesus as Savior and Lord, we come out of darkness into eternal life in Heaven. We don't want to give the enemy something that could harm us, but rather announce the opportunity for the unsaved to be regenerated!
We look at the world full of problems and refuse to be one more cause of the evils that already abound. We want to offer the lost the chance to decide for the good. Then, with Your blessing, they will be happy now and forever!
Look at the people who live on the margins of life, being used and abused by those who don't yet know You. We cry out on behalf of all those who need to know You as the Good Shepherd. Lord, give them Your mercy!
