FAITH CAPSULE: Let it be a year of living life for God.
Deuteronomy 4
The grace and mercy of God have brought you to be alive into a New Year, not because you know how to live life.
Make the right choice, and upgrade your life to live for God.
Live life doing what the word of God asks you to do.
At a wedding in Cana of Galilee where wine for celebration was out, Mary, the mother of Jesus, encouraged the servants with the solution for lack “Whatever He says to you, do it.” (John 2:5)
The servants obeyed, and water turned to wine, for the wedding celebration continued with the miracle of obedience, not mockery.
From today, make the right choice to live life by the word of God and not become a victim of the evil of a wicked world.
Live life by the word of God. Whatever the word of God says to you, do it.
What kind of a believer are you?
Living life is giving self to the word of God, living life for God.
One that does not live life for God denies knowing God.
Why not have the desire to live life for God?
Determination is not enough to live life for God.
The desire with prayer will make one live life for God.
Peter was determined not to deny Christ.
Peter denied Jesus three times, but the prayer of Jesus worked out for Peter not to become a victim of denial for knowing Christ. (Luke 22:32-61)
Living life for God demands giving self to the word of God continually and praying to walk worthy of living life for God.
LIVE LIFE FOR GOD IS SEEKING GOD DILIGENTLY
Living life for God is seeking God diligently.
With desire, live life for God to find Him.
Deuteronomy 4:29 states, “But from there you will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.”
“Jeremiah 29:13 records, “And you will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.”
If seeking God to find God is not possible, God would not have asked for seeking Him.
Live life for God, seek Him, and find Him.
David is an example of such. 1 Kings 14:8 records, “…My servant David, who kept My commandments and who followed Me with all his heart, to do only what was right in My eyes.” (1 King 14:8)
Living life for God and seeking Him is possible.
LIVE LIFE FOR GOD AS MANIFESTATION SON OF GOD
God creates all for His glory. (Revelation 4:11)
Living life for God is not a thing of mouth or religion but abiding by God.
To abide in God is the character of one that lives for God, which Jesus demands from all.
John 8:31 records, “…If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed.”
Claiming to be a believer and not abide in Him is a joke, which is ceremonial religion.
Today, live life before God, answer as manifestation son of God.
Prayer for today: Ask to be enabled to live life for the glory of God.
