The way to death

All the time the man always thinks only of himself, walking as he seems, doing everything that suits him, even many people, having no love, mistreat others without compassion.

As human beings we can not guide ourselves, but there is someone superior to everything around us and this is the almighty Lord God, we have to know that with our own strength we can not do anything, and this is because God is the one who gives us the strength every day to be able to advance on the way.

There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.
Proverbs 16:25

People just keep thinking about them, but something we have clear is that there are people who, for more advice given, do not understand or act, and this is why many of these people fall at the end of the way, and this is because they were warned that if they followed this bad path they could be lost, but they did not take the advice, then they fell to the deepest part of this way.

God knows everything, nothing escapes Him, He was who created all things and that is why He controls them.

The appetite of laborers works for them; their hunger drives them on.
Proverbs 16:26

Every day we see people who speak without compassion and attack others without mercy, if God, who is the father and creator of all things forgives us, then why do not we forgive and have mercy for others?

The Bible tells us that the mouth speaks what the heart is full of. Many only think about doing evil in their heart, destroying with their mouth, and machining bad thoughts, and this is because they do not have God in their hearts.

A scoundrel plots evil, and on their lips it is like a scorching fire.
Proverbs 16:27

We must remember that everyone who has God in their heart does not practice evil, does not speak lies, does not destroy with their mouth, but their life is totally different, with love, peace, kindness, joy, mercy, and this happens when we continue the way that leads us to salvation.

It is also important to understand that the human tendency to walk according to what seems right is a consequence of the fall. Since the beginning, humanity has struggled with the desire to walk independently from God, believing that their own reasoning is enough. However, history itself has shown that when man walks without the guidance of the Lord, his steps lead to confusion, pain, and destruction. Only when we submit our path to God can we truly discern what is good and what is evil.

In daily life we see countless examples of people who trust in their own judgment and end up reaping consequences that could have been avoided. Pride blinds the understanding, making the person believe that they are self-sufficient. Yet the Bible continuously reminds us that “apart from Him we can do nothing”. Human strength is fragile, limited, and incapable of sustaining a meaningful and righteous life. But the strength that God gives is perfect, renewing, and able to lift us even in the darkest of circumstances.

Another reality we must reflect on is the way our words reveal the true condition of our heart. A person whose heart is distant from God will inevitably produce words of hurt, deceit, or destruction. This is why Scripture warns us so much about the tongue. Words have power: they can build or tear down, heal or wound, encourage or destroy. When a heart is filled with bitterness, anger, envy, or pride, the mouth becomes an instrument of fire. But when a heart is filled with God, the tongue becomes a fountain of blessing, wisdom, and peace.

Moreover, walking in the way of God not only transforms our words but also our behavior. The fruits of the Spirit begin to manifest: love for those who do not deserve it, patience in trials, kindness toward the weak, and mercy toward those who fail. These virtues do not arise from human strength but from a heart that has been touched and renewed by God. A transformed person reflects the character of Christ and becomes a light in a world full of selfishness and darkness.

Finally, let us remember that following the right path requires humility. It requires recognizing that our own understanding is not enough and that we need the guidance of the Lord every day. The path that seems right to man may lead to death, but the path that God shows leads to life, peace, and eternal hope. Let us choose wisely which voice we follow and which path we walk.
