Loyalty

LOYALTY< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Genesis 39

 

The greatness of manÕs exploit on the face of earth is a direct result from manÕs loyalty to God. Your loyalty to God will generate GodÕs eye in all your endeavors in life. There are giant men and women of God that received a noticeable and uncommon favor in the in the pages of the Bible because they have been able to demonstrate uncommon and noticeable loyalty with steadfastness to God. As a result, God Who cannot deny Himself repeatedly, showed up on their behalf, with uncommon and noticeable favor. There is nothing that is hidden from the eyes of God and the word of God confirms it in 2 Chronicles 16:9, ÒFor the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to HimÉÓ(2Chronicles16: 9) Can God still respond to you as He responded to some in the pages of Scripture is not the question you should be asking yourself. You should be asking God if you could be loyal enough to get His attention for great exploit. Remember, God is not a partial God. Acts 10:34, 35 ÒThen Peter opened his mouth and said: in truth I perceive that God shows no partiality. But in every nation whoever fears Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him.Ó If you know Him enough to fear Him just like the giants in the Lord did, He will add greatness to you. Joseph was a young man that found favor in the sight of God in every troubling situation that was before him. Joseph did nothing wrong to his brothers when they marked him for destruction. Are you a victim in the making or a ready made victim for not doing wrong? God is in control and He will not let you become a waste as long as you are loyal to His word of command. To be loyal to the word of God is to be obedient. Despite the stand that was taken against Joseph by his brothers, the eyes of the Lord did not depart him and favor answered for him through out all of his troubling time. Genesis 39:21, ÒBut the LORD was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and He gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. 22 And the keeper of the prison committed to JosephÕs hand all the prisoners who were in the prison; whatever they did there, it was his doing.Ó In your persecution, God will make you to prescribe over all that is forcing against you if you will walk in His word of command. Just like Joseph there was David. He was an ordinary shepherd boy before he became anointed King in the hand of God and God later declared him as a man after GodÕs heart. David was loyal and steadfast to God, and God showed up strong on his behalf against all of his enemies. It was DavidÕs loyalty the brought down the Goliath. Ask God to enable you to live in indeed and in truth to His word.
