The Ways of the Lord are Right

Hosea 14:9, “Who is wise, and he shall understand these things ? prudent, and he shall know them? for the ways of the Lord are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall therein.”

The ways of the Lord truly are right. So many times we live our life as if we don’t want to do things God’s way. We think that we know what is better. We want to do things our own way. The Bible clearly tells us what happens when man does that which they think is right. Proverbs 14:12, “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Even if we just look around us, we can clearly see the destruction that is caused by man wanting to do things their own way. It’s so sad to see people that have been taught what is right and see those around that fail, but they still choose to do things their own way. We must choose God’s way, for His ways are best and always right. Psalm 18:30 says, “As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.” God’s ways are always right, and He will always protect us if will trust Him enough to follow Him.
