This Will Answer All Your Questions

The Holy Spirit led me to a scripture this morning that answers every question that you will ever have as you live your life on this earth. Whatever question you have on your mind today or ever will have, answer it with the following Scripture, then be still and allow God to speak to you through it and you will know what to do. You'll never again ask a question like, "what am I going to do now?", for this short scripture will always answer your question.........

Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."

If Jesus is the way, why would you ever look for another? Anxiety comes from trying to figure out what way to go. Peace and rest come from knowing that He is always the way to go!!

If Jesus is the Truth, why would you ever look for a second opinion? Second opinions cause confusion. His Word is Truth. It must always be the First Word and the Final Word. (Google search is hazardous to your health and very confusing).

If Jesus is The Life, then why would you try to live any other way. Jesus even came to this earth to show you and me what living this Life looks like. Jesus is our Role Model. He shows us exactly how to live our lives in relationship with the Father, then He went and made a way for us to be able to live that way also.

God has made it very simple for a man to live his life. Then why does man find it so difficult? One of Jesus' Disciples, Thomas, had the same problem. Jesus said to him:

You know the way to the place where I am going.”
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. IF YOU REALLY KNOW ME, you will know[a] my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.”
Jesus answered: “DON'T YOU KNOW ME, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? ........... John 14:4-9

The reason God's way seems so difficult is because we don't know Him and His way and the only way you will is through a close and intimate relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit through His precious Word. A good and healthy relationship takes time and you must give it top priority. Many are not willing to pay this price, so they choose another way that seems easier and more familiar, but here is what the Holy Spirit says about that way: "There is a way that appears/seems  to be right, but the end of that way leads to death.... Prov 14:12

To really know Jesus is to really know the Way, the Truth, and the Life............. Make up your mind today, there is no other way then God's way and then you will enter into the "Rest" of God.
