The Lord gave his people shelter in the time of pestilence,for he had promised,"There shall no evil befall thee;neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling". This is the promise from the passover of those who dwell in God.After the passover came a journey to Canaan;and the promise of the covenant angel and his keeping them in all there ways.
We too are pilgrims on our way to Canaan. He who set us free by the Passover deliverance also provides for our journey to the land which flows with milk and honey.The entire journey to the promise land is protected by our deliever,as he has promised to keep us in all our ways.There are ways which are not protected for they are not in my promise."All thy ways" are mentioned, but there are some ways that are not to be followed by Children of God,which are not our ways.The ways of presumption,for in these many court danger as they defy God.The ways of sin,dishonesty, lying, vice,conforming to the ways of this world are also ways which are not our ways.The ways of worldliness,greed, selfishness, the ways by which men seek personal ambitions are usually dark and crooked and not of God.The ways in which safety is guaranteed are the ways of humble faith in the Lord Jesus.The way of obedience to His devine precepts.The way of child like trust,the way strict principle, stern integrity, of holy separation, and consecrated service.Seeking God's glory in all we do as we walk with God every where we go. While we travel in these ways all believers are secure.
God promises to protect us and keep all who go the way of the Lord.Jesus Christ is the way,and when we choose to go His way we are a kept people.He leads us,he guide us,he directs us, provides for us, and He protects us.In Christ I amd a kept man.
