The Crossroads
Psalms 1:1-6 NKJV
1. Blessed is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
2. But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
3. He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.
4. The ungodly are not so,
But are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
5. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,
Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6. For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
Jeremiah 17 :7-10 RSV
7.“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,
whose trust is the Lord.
8. He is like a tree planted by water,
that sends out its roots by the stream,
and does not fear when heat comes,
for its leaves remain green,
and is not anxious in the year of drought,
for it does not cease to bear fruit.”
9. The heart is deceitful above all things,
and desperately corrupt;
who can understand it?
10. “I the Lord search the mind
and try the heart,
to give every man according to his ways,
according to the fruit of his doings.”
John 15:1-4 NKJV
1. “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.
2. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
3. You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
4. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
John 14:6 NKJV
6. Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Jeremiah 6:16-17 NIV
16. This is what the Lord says:
“Stand at the crossroads and look;
ask for the ancient paths,
ask where the good way is, and walk in it,
and you will find rest for your souls.
But you said, ‘We will not walk in it.’
17. I appointed watchmen over you and said,
‘Listen to the sound of the trumpet!’
But you said, ‘We will not listen.’
