Prophecies That God Has Given to His Prophet, Thomas S. Gibson, In the Year 2001
2001 01 24.1
The Lord said to me while in prayer, I will show you something.
Immediately, in my spirit, I could see a path before me. It was absolutely straight and level! I could not see anything but the path. But then, as a short time went by, I looked and began to see to the left and to the right. I began to see mountains, valleys, and cliffs––very treacherous conditions to walk in! In these treacherous conditions I could see pathways where people had walked and made paths. It would have to be very difficult to walk there.
Then the Lord said this:
Thus saith the Lord, here am I, follow me. This path is My straight and narrow. Through the hills and the valleys and the mountains and the cliffs––on either side of this straight and narrow, either side of this life of straightness and narrowness that I have called My people to––you will see paths worn by people who have walked over this area many times; climbed, and tried to climb, fallen in valleys, and kept on going. These people are headed toward Me, but they are not on the path. They have missed the path. Some can’t find the path. And they are going at it the hardest way possible.
To walk on this path you need complete commitment to Me, saith the Lord. You need complete commitment. You need to sell everything that is of the flesh. You need to give it all up, and keep that which is of Me. Every time you look to this world and its goods you step into the hills, the cliffs, and the valleys, and you walk the hard life.
I said in the book of Matthew, My yoke is easy and My burden is light. If you will get off of looking at the world, sell yourself totally to the Lord Jesus Christ, you will find yourself on that level path, straight and narrow, and easy to walk on.
For when you are on that path all you see is My will. You don’t see what is to the left and to the right. You don’t see the problems of this earth. You see what I tell you to do, you see what I call you to do, and you simply do it.
It is not important what happens when you do it. It’s just important you obey. This is the complete commitment that puts the very few on the straight and narrow.
Thus saith the Lord, I am calling My people who have wandered off the path that they once started on, back to the straight and narrow, selling themselves out only to the Lord Jesus Christ., leaving the cares of this world aside (for they have nothing to do with the walk with the Lord), calling them to follow My Son forever––just step by step, not caring about anything save obedience to the Holy Spirit.
When they come to that place they’ll be on the straight and narrow. Their yoke will be easy, and their burden will be light. Thus saith the Lord, this is the way it is.
