Follow God, Not Man!

We live in a world where the minds of the masses are so easily deluded. We have people flocking to this medium and that medium, to this counselor and that counselor. People sit in front of a television and watch whatever popular orator of the moment, who knows nothing about them, and they eat up every bit of so called knowledge that pours from their mouth; but yet folks wonder why they still have the same problems, maybe it's because you're following and listening to man, instead of God.

In times such as these where peril befalls so many of us each and every day, it is vital to our existence that we cling to our Father and His word. There are so many out there who are giving people false advice and leading people down the wrong path for their own selfish gain. We need to hear the voice of our Shepherd, Jesus Christ, and follow Him and Him alone on the paths that He has prepared for us.

Sometimes people act as though if they follow God they have something to loose and instead turn to man; last time I checked man was a liar, a deceiver and a full of treachery but God is faithful, righteous, omnipotent, mighty, holy and so much more. 

Whenever one decides to rely on man instead of God, things 9 times out of 10 go drastically wrong. I've seen it and heard it so many times; people who've gotten guidance from God and know His word but let man talk them out of it and next thing you know, BAM!!!! Their spiritually smacked or physically attacked with something all because they didn't listen to God's instruction.

God didn't tell you to think, He told you to obey. He didn't tell you to follow man, He told you to follow Him. God will never lead you to a place that you'll never make it out of. Now with man, you have to be very careful of who you decided to listen to and befriend, especially in these evil days.

So next time you are feeling indecisive, don't run around to man who more than likely has the wrong answer, run to God. He will lead you and guide you and tell you what it is that you need to do. Trust God, He will never steer you in the wrong direction and He promised you in His word that He would never leave you nor forsake you (Joshua 1:5). So make the choice to day, to from here on out, to stand firm on the promises of God and follow Him and Him alone, not man.

God Bless!
