A Call to Walk with God
Return to the Ancient Path. Hear the voice of the Lord today, calling you back to Himself. In a world rushing toward destruction, the invitation still stands: leave the broad road and enter the narrow gate. “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad and easy to travel is the path that leads the way to destruction and eternal loss, and there are many who enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow and difficult to travel is the path that leads the way to [everlasting] life, and there are few who find it” (Matthew 7:13-14, AMP).
Return to the Ancient Path where true rest for your soul is found. “Stand by the ways and see and ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; then you will find a resting place for your souls” (Jeremiah 6:16, NASB). Yet many say, “We will not walk in it.” Will you also turn away, or will you answer the call of God?
The ancient path is not forgotten. It is alive and well, illuminated by the One who is the Light of the world. Jesus is the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except through Him (John 14:6, NASB). Jesus is the only Way — the only Gate — the only Door that leads to life. There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved.
God has shown you what is good: “To do justice, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God” (Micah 6:8, NASB). Return to the Ancient Path — the Holy Way — where the unclean cannot travel, where fools cannot stray (Isaiah 35:8, AMP). It is a highway for the redeemed, for those washed in the blood of the Lamb.
Have you stumbled? Have you strayed? “For My people have forgotten Me, they burn incense to worthless gods, and they have stumbled in their ways, in the ancient roads, to walk on paths, not on a highway” (Jeremiah 18:15, NASB). Beloved, return before it is too late. The mercy of God calls you still.
To the faithful remnant, those who have not bowed to idols, who have not compromised their walk — this call is for you also. Stand firm. Strengthen what remains. Return to the Ancient Path with renewed zeal. Walk as Enoch walked, and be found pleasing to God (Genesis 5:24, NASB). Walk as Noah walked — righteous and blameless in your generation (Genesis 6:9, NASB).
Cry out as David did: “Make me know Your ways, Lord; teach me Your paths. Lead me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation” (Psalm 25:4-5, NASB). Trust Him with all your heart. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight”(Proverbs 3:5-6, NASB).
Return to the Ancient Path. The Shepherd of your soul stands ready to lead you. “He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness for the sake of His name”(Psalm 23:3, NASB). He has not forsaken you. His arms are still open. His mercy endures forever.
If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit (Galatians 5:25, NASB). The Ancient Path is the path of life — the way of holiness, righteousness, and peace. Jesus is calling. Do not harden your heart.
Return to the Ancient Path today. The gate is narrow, but it is open. The Way is singular, but it is sure. Jesus is the only Way — and He waits for you.
O Ancient Path, steady and true,
Your ways are mercy, ever new;
We lift our eyes, we will not stray,
Guide us, O Lord, in Your holy way.
A Closing Prayer
Father, in the name of Yeshua, we come before You. You are the Ancient of Days, the God of the eternal covenant. You have called us to the Ancient Path — the way of life, the way of holiness, the way of truth. Lord, we confess we have strayed. We have sought out our own roads, and we have stumbled. But today, by Your mercy, we return.
Father, lead us back. Strengthen the faithful remnant. Awaken the slumbering heart. Set our feet on the narrow road again. Jesus, You are the Way, the Truth, and the Life. We declare there is no other Way but You. Teach us Your paths. Lead us in Your truth. Restore our souls for Your name’s sake.
Holy Spirit, guide us in this hour. Make us a people who walk by the Spirit, who do not turn aside to the left or the right. Seal us in Your righteousness. Uphold us with Your mighty hand. For Your glory, for Your kingdom, and for the honor of Your great Name.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
