Keep Walking By Faith - Conclusion

 Of course, we all make some decision based on what we perceive with our physical senses. We will likely have problems, though, if we consider only what we see or hear when making decision about important matters. Why? Our physical senses can sometimes deceive us. Even when they do not, if walk only by sight, we may end up ignoring God's will or counsel. (Ecclesiastes 11:9; Matthew 24:37-39) When we walk by faith, however, we will be more likely make decisions that are "acceptable to the Lord." (Ephesians 5:10) Following God's advice will give us inner peace and make us truly happy. (Psalm16:8,9; Isaiah 48:17, 18) And if we continue walking by faith, we will have an everlasting future. - Read 2 CORINTHIANS4:18.

How can we tell if we are walking by faith or by sight?  Basically, it comes down to this: What factors guide our decisions? Are we guided by only the things we see? Or are we guided by our trust in and advice from Jehovah? Let us consider how we can continue waling by faith in three important areas: when choosing employment, when choosing a marriage mate, and when receiving theocratic direction. For each we will discuss factors that we should consider in order to make good decisions.
