BE RESPONSIBLE

FAITH CAPSULE: Live responsibly, seeing in the word of God.

Joshua 1

Responsibility is the price to excel for the glory of God.
It is a responsibility to see in the word of God.
An acclaimed believer that does not see in the word of God will live as an unbelieving believer.
Seeing the word of God is rooted in listening to the word of God to do and receive according to the word of God.
What kind of a believer are you?
Are you seeing in the word of God?
One that meditates on the word of God day and night is hearing and hearing the word of God to see what God says in His word.
One that is meditating on the word of God is communicating with God.
Joshua 1 Joshua 1:8 states, “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.”
Responsibility is a choice not to force one to see God continually and find God.
God is not a slave master but a saving God.
Responsibility is seeking God diligently to find God.
It is irresponsible to seek Him by mouth.
Deuteronomy 4:29 confirms, “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.”
However, it is ignorance of a believer not to seek God diligently to hear, to do according to the word of God to find God.
Responsibility is to watch and pray.
The word of God repeatedly commands all to watch and pray.
One that is not watching and praying is not in a position to see God that waits to act for those waiting on Him. 
Isaiah 64:4 records, “For since the beginning of the world Men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, Nor has the eye seen any God besides You, Who acts for the one who waits for Him.”
Elisha was responsible and waited on God in prayer on behalf of his servant to see the deliverance plan of God over his life, not to become a victim of evil.
2 Kings 6:17 states, “And Elisha prayed, and said, “Lord, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.”
It is ignorance of a believer not to hear, see, and do according to the word of God.
What kind of a believer are you?
As a believer, let it be a way of life, a responsibility to see God with His plan for deliverance and preservation over the life of such.

Prayer for today: Ask to be enabled to live a life of responsibility to the glory of God.
