This is the day.



Proverbs 5:21 For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings.

Do you think you have gotten by with something? Think again! It is a humbling thought to know that everything you have ever done has been seen by God, and has either been approved or disapproved by Him. Our ways: our thoughts, our actions, everything we do, are before the Lord. Even more HE PONDERS our ways. He takes the time to think about what we are doing, and, being ALL-KNOWING, even considers our motives. What a Great God!! This knowledge of Him should make us want to submit our ways to Him, and let Him lead us in the right direction.

The ways of the wicked are not known.
I. The wicked do not know why they have wicked ways. Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
II. The wicked do not know the way of salvation. Jon 10:7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. (emphasis added)
III. The wicked don't know the way to heaven. Ecclesiastes 10:15 The labour of the foolish wearieth every one of them, because he knoweth not how to go to the city. (emphasis added) Psalm 53:1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good. (emphasis added)
