It is the testimonies of God that you keep inside you that will determine how you stand in Him. Psalm 119:2, ÒBlessed are those who keep His testimonies, who seek Him with the whole heart!Ó Testimony is evidence in support of fact; a public declaration regarding an experience. The fool has said in his heart that there is no God (Psalm 14:1). It will only take one that is defined as a fool to look to the right, left, up, or down and say there is no God. All the work of His hand is everywhere to testify that the Lord is God and true. It is impossible for any man to keep the testimonies of God and not to seek Him with the whole heart. Among His testimonies is declared, Matthew 9:13, ÒBut go and learn what this means; I desire mercy not sacrifice. For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.Ó If you are one that keeps His testimonies in your heart, seeking Him will always be your top priority. You seek Him by reaching out to the sinners in which you were once chief. His testimonies that you keep will compel you to reach out to the sinners. JonahÕs loss from the presence of God due to his disobedience relegated him to the sinnersÕ camp. Jonah spent three days seeking salvation from the dark and remembered what it means to be a sinner. JonahÕs experience outside of God energized him to go and seek after God by reaching out to lost souls for the Lord. Ask God to endue you with the grace to be one that keeps His testimonies and seeks after Him. Be blessed by keeping His testimonies.
