[SIZE=medium]It is written in [/SIZE][SIZE=medium]Proverbs 4:27[/SIZE][SIZE=medium] “Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.”[/SIZE]
[SIZE=medium]This not turning from to the right hand or the left is walking in the way the Lord commands His children to walk. This is also shown in [/SIZE][SIZE=medium]Deuteronomy 5:32[/SIZE][SIZE=medium] “Ye shall observe to do therefore as the Lord your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.”[/SIZE]

[SIZE=medium]This walking in the way, is abiding in the words of God, just as Jesus is also that Way, Truth, and Life being the very Word of God made flesh.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=medium]Jesus spoke of a narrow way and a broad way in Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:14 [/SIZE]Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”

[SIZE=medium]But if Christ truly dwells in you by God’s Spirit, then you will know the way. [/SIZE][SIZE=medium]John 14:4[/SIZE][SIZE=medium] “And whither I go ye know[/SIZE], and the way ye know.” For the Holy Spirit bears witness to our conscience as to what is the acceptable will of God. [SIZE=medium]Psalm 143:10[/SIZE][SIZE=medium] “Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness” [/SIZE]

[SIZE=medium]And also here in [/SIZE][SIZE=medium]Romans 8:27[/SIZE][SIZE=medium] “And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.”[/SIZE]
[SIZE=medium]And if it be that you have the Spirit of God, if you do begin to turn to the right or the left from the Way, you will hear that still small voice speaking to your heart.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=medium]Isaiah 30:21[/SIZE][SIZE=medium]And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.”[/SIZE]

[SIZE=medium]See that refuse not Him that speaks from heaven. [/SIZE][SIZE=medium]Hebrews 12:25[/SIZE][SIZE=medium] “See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:”[/SIZE]
