FAITH CAPSULE: Pray that this month will answer for you as the month to live life for God.
Psalm 91
Living life for God demands to grow in the wisdom and knowledge of God.
Isaiah 33:6 speaks to all, “Wisdom and knowledge will be the stability of your times, And the strength of salvation; The fear of the Lord is His treasure.”
Are you growing in the wisdom and knowledge of God, the source of strength, the only way to fear God and be stable in these challenging times?
As a way of life, pray nonstop that God will fill you with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding.
THE EVIDENCE OF NOT LIVING LIFE FOR GOD, NOT ABIDING IN HIM.
John 8:32 records, “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” One that does not receive the truth will see it as a threat and does not accept it to abide in it.
Those who do not receive the truth are in bondage of pride; they are not free to be corrected or redirected, not living life for God.
Those who do not abide in Him are rebellious, not living life for God. Job 24:13 buttresses, “There are those who rebel against the light; they do not know its ways nor abide in its paths.” Jesus is the wisdom from God for us. (1 Corinthians 1:30) Live life for God to give your ears to hearing the rebukes of life just like Proverbs 15:31 admonishes, “The ear that hears the rebukes of life, will abide among the wise.”
LIVE LIFE BEFORE GOD
Living life for God, abiding in Him is taking a passage not to live life in darkness. In John 12:46, Jesus said, “I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness.”
It is not possible to be answering as a believer and be full of darkness.
To be full of darkness is abiding in darkness, not living life before God.
Those build by the word of God will live life for God. Acts 20:32 states, “So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.”
Pray that God enables you that His word will gain entrance in you to build you up, living life before Him.
It is worthy to pray to live life before God to experience as Proverbs 6:22 identifies, “When you roam, they will lead you; When you sleep, they will keep you; And when you awake, they will speak with you.”
Claiming to live life for God or live life before God is not different, and you shall carry the mark as one that belongs to God.
Prayer for today: Pray with understanding to live life before God.
