  7. 8. Walking Inside the Plan of God, Vs. 20.

  8. “The way” - ORACH, אֹרַחUsed to contrast the life activities or character orientation of the sinner with the obedient, godly person.

  9. Psa 25:4,“Your ways, O Yahweh, cause me to know; your paths teach me.”

  10. True life is found when following God’s path (His righteous character) and living inside His plan for your life.

  11. God loves righteousness, Psa 33:5, and desires that we too walk in righteousness.

  12. When we do we are blessed through the Grace Pipeline of our Lord by His righteous.

  13. Grace Pipeline God + R Love Righteousness Justice Love Man (+ R) Blessing

  14. “Paths” NETHIYBAH, נְתִיבָה“A path, pathway, or wake.” Well-traveled path, road, Judges 5:6. Figuratively, the paths of life, Job 19:8; of ethical and moral guidance, Psa 119:105; 142:3, etc.

  15. It includes the impact we will have on others as we go forward in God’s Plan for our lives, Psa 119:105; Prov 12:28; Isa. 42:16, with wisdom, Prov 3:17.

  16. “Justice” - MISHPAT, ‏מִשְׁפָּט “Judgment, justice, or ordinance.”

  17. It means following God’s Word in His Plan for your life so that you make good decisions on a consistent basis to walk in His righteousness.

  18. 9. Escrow Blessings for Time and Eternity, Vs. 21.

  19. “Endow” - NACHAL, נָחַל “To cause to:receive, take property as a permanent possession, take possession of, or inherit.” Deut 1:38; 3:28

  20. “Wealth” - YESH, יֵשׁ“There is, what is, existence, substance or presence.”

  21. For those who love (AHEV) wisdom, they will be caused to take possession of the possession, i.e. what exists = your Escrow Blessings for time and eternity.

  22. The desire of “wisdom” is to give us our escrow blessings.“I may fill.”

  23. Luke 6:38,“Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour into your lap a good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over. For by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return.”

  24. “Treasuries” - OTSAR, אוֹצָר “Treasury, storehouse, depository, etc.” describing both sacred and royal treasures, speaking of our priesthood and ambassadorship as members of the Royal Family of God.

  25. Your escrow blessings will go to others if you reside in reversionism, (do not love wisdom). Cf. Mat 25:14-29.

  26. Principles of Escrow Blessings:A. There are four parts to the definition of escrow.

  27. 1. An escrow is a written agreement entered into by three parties: The grantor - (God the Father), The grantee - (you), The depositary - (TLJC as the escrow officer).

  28. Eph 3:8,“The inexhaustible (unfathomable) riches in Christ.”

  29. 2. The sealed agreement is made contingent on some future happening held by the depository pending the occurrence of that event.

  30. God first created the blessings, before He expressed His sovereign will in election and the predesigned protocol plan in predestination, Eph 1:3.

  31. 3. When the event has taken place or the grantee has performed the specified act, the depositary delivers to him the agreement and the deposit is held.

  32. 4. The depositary or custodian is allowed no discretion, but must follow strictly the terms of the agreement as it concerns the other two parties.
