FAITH CAPSULE: With faith, walk with God, and allow fear to drive you to seek God diligently.
Psalm 91
Have faith, fear God, to walk with Him by seeking Him diligently.
Walking with God is rooted in having faith in God.
Walking with God is seeking God.
Hebrews 11:6 buttresses, “But without faith, it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”
Walking with God, driven in fear, to seek Him will find Him.
Seeking God with diligence is taking a position to walk in Him.
Will you seek God diligently?
In this wicked world, for your benefit, do not deceive yourself but walk in fear with God, before Him, and in Him.
Seek God diligently, dwell, and abide in God.
Psalm 91:1-3 encourages, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Highest Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” Surely, He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence.”
Let walking with fear with God be your way of life, seeking God to find God.
It takes having fear to walk with God, the character of serving God.
Living life for God, being righteous as the word admonishes, “Listen to Me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek the Lord…” (Isaiah 51:1)
Walking with God, seeking God to serve God, is following in line with God.
John 12:26 identifies what it means to serve God, “If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also. If anyone serves Me, him My Father will honor.”
If seeking God to find God is not possible, God would not have asked for all to seek Him diligently, to find Him by following Him.
One that follows God cannot walk in darkness as declared by the word of God in John 8:12, “He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness but have the light of life.”
Walk with God!
Truth is the character of God to seek and find Him.
David is an example that followed God with his heart, and the Bible 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 Kings 14:8)
Are you with the desire to walk, seek God diligently, following His righteousness of God?
Walking with God will obey God to keep self in God as His treasure. Exodus 19:5 confirms, “Now, therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine.”
With faith, walk with God, allow fear to drive you to seek God diligently, and be obedient to God by pleasing God.
