Look Unto Me

“Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.”

(Isaiah 45:22)

All that is required of us to be saved is to simply look upon God.  We are to affix our gaze and attention on Him. Notice that God does not require us to necessarily see or to even understand, but simply to look unto Him.

To look at God we must first turn away from our ways and our own direction. We will always head towards what we look at. It is impossible to go to God whilst looking elsewhere.

Looking at anything other than God is looking at sin and destruction. Line of sight of our Lord is the straight and narrow path. Wide is the gate to destruction and Hell and does not require our attention. We can stumble through the broad gates of Hell with our eyes closed. In fact, most do.

We are to look upon Him. Never will we fall out of the way when we ever look directly unto Him. This straight line to God is the way to holiness, it is righteousness, and it is the way to God.
