"The path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, that shines brighter and brighter until the full day" (Prov. 4:18).

LaWanda – “I love you Lord and I lift my voice to worship you, O my soul rejoice.  Take joy my King in what you hear.  May it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ear.”  Thank you, Lord, that your joy is my strength.

 As I move forward in my Christian life, walking on God’s highway of holiness, being guided and illumined by the Holy Spirit, I discover God is removing lies which have been stumbling blocks to my walk in the spirit. Below are some of these common roadblocks He removes.

LaWanda - Precious Jesus, how I love you. I thank you, Lord, for your mercy that endures forever. Lord, I need it. I need you, Lord.

I see me, Lord, at your feet.  I am resting at your feet. My head rests heavily on your thigh. There is much peace here. I am weary, Lord and I need your peace. I need your rest, Lord. Help me as I rest here. Restore my soul, Lord Jesus.

What protects me from being susceptible to deception? I do want to be receptive to new ideas: I am glad to show the strength of my faith by listening with an open heart and mind to what others have to say and asking questions to ensure I fully understand their point, even if it disagrees with what I believe. I do not want to be a mocker (Jude 1:17-21).

I am going to suggest that the heart of a good teacher is pure and righteous, seeking after God and desiring God's best for all. This person would be a believer who knows the Bible and believes it is the Word of God. They are also led by the Spirit so they get revelation insight, just as the disciples did on the Emmaus Road.

Let’s examine false teachers who cause divisions in an unacceptable manner. Perhaps it begins as a heart issue, which is then manifested by what they say. According to these verses, it appears the main characteristic of a false teacher is an evil heart.
