A GOD-FEARING HEART
HOW DO I KNOW IF I HAVE A GOD FEARING HEART?
"Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His Servant, that walketh in darkness and hath no light? Let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God” (Isaiah 50:10).
“For all those things hath Mine hand made, and all those things have been," saith the LORD. "But to this man will I look: even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word” (Isaiah 66:2).
2. Consider your attitude toward evil, sin, iniquity
“The fear of the LORD is to hate evil; pride and arrogance and the evil way and the froward mouth do I hate” (Proverbs 8:13)
“You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions anointing you with the oil of gladness” (Hebrews 1:9).
a) When no one sees you (in your bedroom, in your washroom,...)
“The man whose desire is for the wife of another is waiting for the evening, saying, No eye will see me; and he puts a cover on his face. And in the night the thief goes about” (Job 24:15 BBE);
“He says in his heart, God has no memory of me: his face is turned away; he will never see it” (Psalms 10:11 BBE).
b) When you are under pressure (trial, adversity, misfortune,…)
His wife asked him, "Are you still holding on to your principles? Curse God and die!" He said to her, "You’re talking like a godless fool. We accept the good that God gives us. Shouldn’t we also accept the bad?" Through all this Job’s lips did not utter one sinful word (Job 2:9-10).
MY PRAYER TODAY
As you pray and expect the Lord to answer your prayers, check your life and ask yourselves :
- are you the friend of God?
- do you please God?
- what is your attitude toward the Word of God?
- what is your attitude toward sin?
MY PRAYER FOR SOMEONE TODAY IS
SO SHALL IT BE!
JESUS IS LORD!
