Introduction

In the Scriptures God reveals Himself to the human race with the
words of Isaiah 55:8, 9: “For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways My ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens
are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and
My thoughts than your thoughts.” He also directs us with the words of
Jeremiah 6:16; “Thus saith the LORD, stand ye in the ways, and see, and
ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye
shall find rest for your souls.”

With such directives before us, would it not be incumbent upon us to
ask God according to the words of Psalm 27:11: “Teach me Thy way, O
LORD, and lead me in a plain path.”

It is the purpose of this Sabbath school lesson to research God’s way
in order for God’s mercies to be understood according to the prayer of
Psalm 67:1, 2; “God be merciful unto us, and bless us; and cause His
face to shine upon us; that Thy way may be known upon earth, Thy
saving health among all nations.”

Where are we to look for the research of God’s way? We may try
here or there throughout Scriptures, but only arrive at piecemeal
sections of His way. By careful search we discover that a complete and
well-explained method is pointed out for us again in the book of
Psalms; namely in the 77th and verse 13: “Thy way, O God, is in the
sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?”

Therefore under the enlightenment of the Bible we will venture into
a detailed research into the sanctuary as it is portrayed in its detail.

May God then help us indeed to stand in the ways and diligently
apply ourselves to comprehend God’s way as He reveals Himself in His
sanctuary.
