In order to live forever, inherit eternal life we need to ask ourselves does God accept our way? Who is greater, us or God? Then, whose way matter?
It is good that we ask such things to win ourselves, our mind to know God's way and be in Him.
It is very well known that God is the one who created us. He is like a great scientist and we are like His robots but with a mind that can think independently.
So, though God gives us an independent mind like His, we have to obey Him anyway because He create us, right?
Whose Way is Greater/Higher?
Since God is our Creator, that means He is above us, greater than us, even if we may think of a way of our own mind and have followed it, we need to swallow our pride, we need to leave our way. And quickly follow His way when we know what is His way, right?
Surely it is written that His way is also greater - higher since He is greater, needless to say nobody's way is greater:
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." (Isaiah 58: 8, 9.)
Anyway, every normal mind can understand God is greater and lives in a higher place, is not it?
Will God Accept Our Way?
Since God who created us have His own way, what will we be called if we do not obey Him but go our own way? It would be like a robot going against programmed, designed or command, right?
What would a scientist do to the robot if it disobey the master?
They will deactivate it if it can be touched.
Or, what would we do if our electronic gadget don't perform as it should be?
We would call it broken, then repair it or discard it away if we cannot repair it, right?
So, if we do not obey God our Father in Heaven, if we do not follow our creators way, command but go our own way, will He not call us broken? And, try to repair us by sending His servants, and discard us if we do not want to be reformed?
Truly, it is sound that God will not accept our way, His children opinion, over His own way, His own thought.
It is also written that we should leave our way behind, in the previous verses Isaiah 55: 6 “Seek the LORD while he may be found, call upon him while he is near. 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous person his thoughts. Let him return to the LORD, So he’ll have mercy upon him, and to our God, for he’ll pardon abundantly.
What is God's Way?
It is not possible for us to know all the way (every detail way) of God but when we look into the Bible we see how He tell the Israelites to worship Him, we see His prophets, and we see His Only Begotten Son Jesus Christ (who die for us all and who believe in Him and are willing and follow Him will inherit eternal life) and we see His son followers and their words.
So, we can know God's way of the past, and we can also know His present way by reading the Bible. But, we cannot know His future way except that which are written in the Bible.
So, thinking for the eternal benefit of ourselves so that we can live forever by His grace, what we should do is follow His way as much as we know and be willing, keep on opening our heart to follow His way to the end if He tell us His future way.
So, let's seek the Lord and follow His way lest He call us broken, unrepairable - not willing to be repaired, reformed and discard us, because we don't know when He will do that, needless to say we don't know every detail of His way.
Since, nobody can tell every way of God or His thoughts and when He will end this world, we need to be thoughtful, careful and be in God. We need to love Him as our creator, boss or master. After all, He is our Father, our Creator, the King, the only one who existed before us and rule as He will according to His thoughts and create whatever He want.
