Quote: "The path may be narrow, the journey long, but I'm following God, where I belong. With faith as my fuel and love as my guide, in Him, my steps are dignified."
Scripture: Matthew 7:14: "But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."
Prayer: Father, give me the courage to walk the narrow path, knowing it leads to true life and purpose. Amen.
Guided Prayer for Salvation
The whole reason why God, one of the reasons why God put us together is for this moment, what I am about to do right here, about to offer you to get on the narrow path if you do not know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. The Bible says the day you hear my voice, harden out your heart, meaning the day I send someone to offer you salvation, to offer you restoration back home into right standing with Father God and his son Jesus. Do not let that opportunity pass. Jesus is the way. He is the truth. He is the light. He is the narrow path. He is the guide. He is your peace. He is your strength. He is your creator. He is everything you need. So right now, I invite you to repeat after me. I'm going to say a prayer, and this will be the beginning of your restoration, being restored back to the narrow path. That will get you on track, and he will protect you. He will guide you. He will lead you in every aspect of your life. So what are you waiting for? Let's go. Just repeat after me.
Abba, Father, I come to you a sinner. Father God, I believe that you sent your son Jesus to die on the cross for the remission of my sins. King Jesus, I ask you to come into my heart, to be my Lord and Savior, to cleanse me of all the unclean spirits, of all the unrighteousness before you, and make me whole by your blood. I ask you to fill me with your Holy Spirit to lead me and guide me all the days of my life. In Jesus' name, amen and amen.
Message from Minister Ibn Ali:
Good Afternoon, family. I want to share something that's been sitting heavy on my heart—but not heavy in a burdensome way. Heavy in the sense that it matters. It's meaningful. It's transformative. And I believe it's something someone here needs to hear today.
Let me start with this quote that came from my own journey with God:
"The path may be narrow, the journey long, but I'm following God, where I belong. With faith as my fuel and love as my guide, in Him, my steps are dignified."
You see, I didn't come to this place of peace overnight. There were times I questioned if I was even on the right path. There were days it felt like everyone around me was taking shortcuts, wide roads, easy routes—and here I was, grinding it out on the narrow road, unseen, uncelebrated, unacknowledged.
But God reminded me of this truth in Matthew 7:14, where it says:
"But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."
Let that sink in. Only a few find it.
That means this narrow path we're on—it's not a mistake. It's not punishment. It's divine placement. God Himself said it's the road that leads to life. Not just existing... but living. Living with purpose, with passion, with power. Living in alignment with heaven.
Now I know, sometimes it feels lonely. Sometimes it feels like you're missing out. Like the world is racing ahead and you're crawling forward. But here's what I learned: fast doesn't always mean fruitful. And crowded doesn't always mean correct.
The narrow path strips you of distractions so you can hear God clearer. It may be long, but it's leading somewhere sacred.
When faith becomes your fuel, you stop relying on motivation and start relying on revelation. And when love becomes your guide, bitterness, revenge, and fear can't stay. They simply can't coexist with divine love.
That's what gives your steps dignity. Not the applause of people. Not how fast you get there. But the fact that every step you take is ordered by the Lord. He sees your sacrifice. He sees your tears. He sees you choosing Him, even when it's hard.
And maybe, just maybe, that's where true transformation begins. Not in the spotlight, but in the secret place. When no one's watching but God, and you still say, "Yes, Lord. I'll walk with You."
So today, I want to encourage you: if you're on that narrow path, don't quit. Don't question your worth because your walk doesn't look like everyone else's. You are not behind—you are being refined.
And if you've stepped off the path, it's not too late to come back. Grace is not a one-time gift. It's a daily invitation.
Let's pray:
"Father, give me the courage to walk the narrow path, knowing it leads to true life and purpose. Amen."
Listen to me—your purpose is not found in ease; it's found in obedience. Your value is not determined by the crowd; it's determined by the Cross.
Keep walking. Keep trusting. The narrow road may be hard, but it's holy.
And at the end of it? Life. True, abundant, eternal life.
Thank you, and God bless you.
