The Highway Of Holiness (2)
Thursday January 4th
Text: Isaiah 35: 8, 9
Key verse: 1 Peter 1: 16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
The redeemed shall walk on the highway of holiness. What is holiness? Holiness is living your life in Christ; in obedience to Jesus without committing sin, whether in action or thoughts, outward sin or inward sin. Holiness is a life that has been cleansed, saved and sanctified; cleansed in the blood of Christ. Holiness is a highway indeed because the Bible tells us those that cannot walk in this way: The unclean of the earth cannot walk in it; defiled people, sinners cannot walk in this way. The common man on the earth born in sin, living in sin cannot walk in this way. The Bible tells us more of people that cannot walk in this way. The lions shall not be there nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon. The lion that would want to hunt and kill others. Murderers, dangerous people, those that lack love and truth can never walk there. They shall not be found there.
Who are the people that will walk in holiness? The redeemed of the Lord. They may be ignorant men. They may be unlearned men but concerning this way, they will be perfect. They walk on this way perfect. It does not need secular education to walk on holiness. It does not require going to school to walk in holiness. You may not even know how to read but you can walk in holiness. It says though fools but cannot err in this way because it is a way that God Himself gives a man.
I will sprinkle clean water upon you and you will be clean from your idols and from your uncleanness, I will cleanse you. A new heart I will give you and I will take away from you the heart of stone and I will give you the heart of flesh. An obedient heart I will give you. So, this is a matter of the heart. That’s why mental education is not necessarily required to walk in this way. The redeemed of the Lord shall walk there. Highway of holiness! And the Lord invites us to walk in this way. It is divine invitation. The Lord is telling all his children to come up to this way of holiness.
Thought for the day: Get holiness, get wisdom.
Song for the day: Holiness is the beauty of the believers
Bible reading for the day: Genesis 13-17
