FAITH CAPSULE: God is enough to be committed to.

Isaiah 64

God is a Caring God. 
God is near.
God is not far from His creator that is not far from Him.
Sin and iniquity will always set one to be far from God.
Romans 3:23 informs all, “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”
God is a good God!
God waits to act when one waits on His committed love and caring. 
Isaiah 64:4 testifies to God, “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.”
God is enough to be committed to His help, not to anyone. 
God alone is the Helping helper that has never failed. 
Are you looking forward to anyone for your help?
Looking for help from the wrong sources is evidence of limiting God for His loving care. 
Your help will not come from where you are looking for but shall be from God through unexpected channels to you. 
Imagine Saul God appointed him to be the king but looking away from God to get the help of God, as king.
God called him.
Did God call you?
1 Thessalonians 5:24 records, “He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.”
Saul did not look to the caring God for his help.
Saul was to fight the Philistines, but he could not wait for the Prophet of God with direction to carry out the burnt offering. 
Saul disobeyed the law of God by engaging in an offering that was only to be carried out by Samuel, the priest of God. 
Samuel confronted Saul about the presentation of the burnt offering, “…What have you done?” Saul said, “When I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you did not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered together at Michmash, then I said, ‘The Philistines will now come down on me at Gilgal, and I have not made supplication to the LORD.’ Therefore I felt compelled, and offered a burnt offering.” (1 Samuel 13:11-12) 
Committing to man instead of meditating on the testimonies of the care of God will compel one to become a failure like King Saul.
Who do you commit yourself to?
One who is committed to the word of God commits to God.
One who is committed to the world shall experience self-destruction.
Jesus could not commit Himself to any man. 
The Bible records, “But Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because He knew all men.” (John 2:24) 
The documentation of the experience of Jesus is for all to learn.
Are you studying instead of reading the word of God to learn?
Study the word of God, and do not look over the word by committing yourself to no one. 
Do you commit to someone?
Who do you commit to for getting help? 
God, creator of all, can visit for His salvation.

Prayer for today: Ask God to enable you to commit to His word.
