Psalm 27:11 (b) The word is used to describe GOD's way of life for His children. It is called a path because men of every century have traveled the same way, and thus it is established as GOD's way by experience. (See also Psalm 25:4).

Proverbs 2:19 (b) This indicates that the one who walks in GOD's way, and along the road GOD has designed will find his life becoming sweeter, richer and brighter as the years go by. The immoral miss GOD's ways and GOD's program of life.
Isaiah 42:16 (b) Here we see revealed to us that the way of GOD, the road He wishes His children to travel, may sometimes lead through very difficult situations, and places that seem to be impossible and impassable. The power of GOD will be present to enable them to overcome every obstacle.
Hebrews 12:13 (a) The Lord is inviting His children by this expression to walk in such a godly way, so upright, so consecrated, that the weak Christian will be encouraged to walk with GOD, and will not be stumbled by his fellow-believer.
