Daily Devotional, Year 2 – APRIL 4

.

Highway To Heaven!

.

Part 2:

“Clearing Away Debris!”

To read Part 1, click here… “MARCH 28 (Highway To Heaven!)”

.

“Every word of God is pure:

He is a shield unto them that put their trust in Him.

Add thou not unto His words,

lest He reprove thee,

and thou be found a liar.”

Proverbs 30:5, 6

.

**There once was a TV show, called, “Highway To Heaven”.**

.

And this weekly series starred the late Michael Landon, posing as an angel-come-down-to-earth, to perform good deeds, and bring some form of redemption (not salvational redemption) to a misguided or problem-plagued person.

The Way of Holiness

.

Now, this devotional is not endorsing television in any way, especially those which blaspheme God’s Word of Truth!

.

No, this daily devotional merely glances at the things of the earth, and attempts to use them as object lessons of heavenly truths.

.

And the concept of a highway to Heaven does carry some biblical authenticity.

.

Listen to the Prophet, Isaiah… “And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called ‘The Way Of Holiness'” Isaiah 35:8

THIS COMMISSION FOR US TODAY

.

Well, God’s people, in these last days have a work before us!

.

Our King is soon to come!

.

And it is our commission to prepare that Highway of Holiness for our King!

.

Unfortunately, the Highway of Holiness is not so holy anymore.

.

And it has become a twisted and winding road, filled with lots of debris and obstructions and pot-holes!

LITTER-STREWN HIGHWAY

We need to clear away the rubbish and debris which has been strewn along that highway!

.

No king would want to travel on a litter-strewn highway! That would be an embarrassment!

.

And so, we must do a litter-patrol, and remove all the unbiblical theological jargon, and non-biblical Church-doctrines which have, “crept in unawares”, into the Church over the years and centuries!

.

LITTER ALL OVER OUR HIGHWAY

.

**Well, all of the above testimony has been discussed in Part 1 (click to read).**

.

**But today’s devotional, Part 2 will focus on the analogy of litter patrol.**

.

Because some special attention must be given to all the litter of false doctrines and other foreign objects which have so greatly cluttered the Highway of Holiness, that it is almost impossible to travel that pathway without stumbling!

.

Yes, the Enemy of Souls has been working around the clock, casting stumbling blocks along the King’s Highway, in attempt to cause God’s people to fall!

ADDING TO GOD’S WORD

.

Listen… “Every word of God is pure: He is a shield unto them that put their trust in Him. Add thou not unto His words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.” Proverbs 30:5, 6

.

Unfortunately, this above passage reveals exactly what Satan has accomplished, via unwary Bible teachers and theologians, through centuries past.

.

Satan has brought in many unbiblical doctrines and non-biblical jargon onto that Highway of Holiness! And the Church has been groomed by false shepherds to accept these non-biblical debris as though they are of equal authority with the Bible!

.

Yes, we have all been guilty of adding things to God’s Word, which have no place in the pure Word of Truth!

.

NON-BIBLICAL JARGON

.

So, exactly what kind of litter and debris are we speaking of?

.

For instance, just think about all the non-biblical jargon which we now accept as being biblical: such theological names as, “The Rapture”, “The Trinity”, “Christmas”, “Easter”, “Pre-Tribulation”, “The Millennium”, “Soul-Sleep”, “Post-Tribulation”, “Calvinist”, “Armenian”, “Futurist”, “Replacement Theology”, “Eternal Torment”, etc….

.

THE CITY OF CONFUSION!

.

Now just why is this such an important problem?

.

What difference does it make whether I use these names?

.

The great problem is that all these names (plus many more, not mentioned), are causing great confusion in God’s house! And because the Word of God does not specifically teach these doctrines, there is a great division over these doctrines and over the jargon used to describe them.

.

Yes, this is greatly the reason why God refers to the Great Harlot, Babylon, The Mother of Harlots.

.

We have become a spiritual Babylon… “The City of Confusion” Isaiah 24:10

.

.

PREPARE YE THE WAY OF THE LORD!

.

And before the King can return for His people, His highway must be made smooth and straight, and litter-free!

.

The message which comes to us from down the corridors of time is…

“The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness,

Prepare ye the way of the LORD,

make straight in the desert a highway for our God.

Every valley shall be exalted,

and every mountain and hill shall be made low:

and the crooked shall be made straight,

and the rough places plain:”

Isaiah 40:3, 4

.

COME OUT OF HER MY PEOPLE!

.

This is the message which all of us must heed in this fearful hour!

.

But unfortunately, we cannot expect the churches to come along with us in this reformation!

.

But we must realize that God is calling us out of Babylon…

“And I heard another voice from heaven,

saying, Come out of her, My people,

that ye be not partakers of her sins,

and that ye receive not of her plagues.”

Revelation 18:4

.

THE TIME OF JACOB’S TROUBLE!

.

The Lord is no longer working with us collectively.

.

We now must seek Him, even as did Jacob when he wrestled with the Angel through the night!

.

Listen… “Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child?

wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail,

and all faces are turned into paleness?

Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it:

it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble;

but he shall be saved out of it.

For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts,

that I will break his yoke from off thy neck,

and will burst thy bonds,

and strangers shall no more serve themselves of him:”

Jeremiah 30:6-8

.

Yes, as this above passage alludes to the concept, that this is the time when God’s people will engage in a wrestling match with God: a one-on-one wrestling in prayer and consecration!

.

.

AWAKE SOLDIERS OF THE CROSS!

.

And so, now we must seek the purity of the uncluttered truth.

.

Now we must no longer be deluded by false doctrines designed to keep us in an undone, and drunken condition. Yes, we have been drinking the wine of Babylonish confusion. And we must fully wake up, and sober up, and enter into the time which is now upon us!

.

And if we do so, God has a promise for us… “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the Day of Jesus Christ:” Philippians 1:6

.

TIME FOR REPAIRS

.

And so, God’s people must now begin to joyfully engage ourselves in the reconstruction of that Highway Of Holiness, as we prepare for our soon-coming King!

.

That highway must become holy, once again!

.

TODAY’S PRAYER…

“Dear Lord, Let me clear away all the rubbish out of my heart! Take away the high places and pitfalls along my pathway! Keep me on the straight and narrow highway that leads to the Celestial City of God…

TALE OF TWO WOMEN

You see, this constellation tells the tale of two women! But how can it be, that nobody has ever seen the Pleiades as a constellation of a woman? (There is one other person on the Internet who has his own rendition of this constellation. Click here to see)

.

This article will discuss this great paradox of these two women, found in the Pleiades, and what it means scripturally to us: we who comprise the global community of Christians.

.

**Because this constellation (or should we say Constellations, plural), has very much to do with us: those of us who are living right now on the threshold of eternity.**

.

And as you might expect, if you are at all familiar with this website, the Bible holds the key to understanding all this!

.

THE PLEIADES: WHAT IS IT ABOUT?…

What is this mysterious “little” cluster of stars in the night-sky all about?

.

Notice in the sketch to the right, that the Pleiades is shaped like the furry tassel at the tip of a lion’s tail. Here is further proof that the Pleiades is the tip of the tail of this Dragon Constellation!

.

And why, in the sketch to the right, does the Goodly Horse Constellation appear to be gazing intently at this Pleiades-cluster, as if mesmerized…or perhaps as if it’s something to be feared…or even with jealousy, as if perhaps, it’s something to be retrieved?
