FAITH CAPSULE: Man is right before God accepting Jesus but with no loyal heart in the sight of God.

2Chronicles 25

What kind of believer in the name of Jesus are you? In the name of Jesus, you are doing right but without a loyal heart in the sight of God. Today, so many acclaimed believers are doing right before man and God but without a loyal heart in the sight of the Lord. It is in this wicked world that man is doing right in the name of God but with no loyal heart in the sight of God. Does that sound like you? Amaziah is one that did right before God but not loyal before God. The book of 2Chronicles 25:1-2 recorded, “Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.  And he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, but not with a loyal heart.”
Man is right before God accepting Jesus as the Lord and savior but not loyal in the sight of God. Man is right coming out on a regular basis to worship God in the church but not loyal in the sight of God. Does that sound like you or like your mentor?
Amaziah’s right doing in the sight of God was documented, “Now it happened, as soon as the kingdom was established for him, that he executed his servants who had murdered his father the king. However he did not execute their children, but did as it is written in the Law in the Book of Moses, where the Lord commanded, saying, “The fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor shall the children be put to death for their fathers; but a person shall die for his own sin.” (2Chronicles 25:3-4) Amaziah carefully obeyed the Law in the book of Moses and it was counted for him as doing right in the sight of God.
Amaziah’s lack of no loyal heart in the sight of God was revealed after winning a battle against the Edomites. It was a battle he would not have been able to win but divine intervention of God gave victory to him and Judah when they defeated the Edomites. After his victory, “he brought the gods of the people of Seir, set them up to be his gods, and bowed down before them and burned incense to them.  Therefore the anger of the Lord was aroused against Amaziah, and He sent him a prophet who said to him, “Why have you sought the gods of the people, which could not rescue their own people from your hand?”” (2Chronicles 25:14-15) Amaziah was unwilling to listen to the prophet sent by God.  Amaziah could not maintain loyal heart for God that won him battle.
Today, many answers as Amaziah doing right in the sight of God but with no loyal heart in the sight of God. Be committed to God doing right and maintaining a loyal heart in the sight of God.

Prayer for today: Ask for the grace of God to live right with a loyal heart before God.
