THINK FOR YOURSELF

FAITH CAPSULE: What do you desire? 

Psalm 27

The desire for God must be in the mind of all and not just in the mouth.
If you have a desire for God in your heart, God will deposit the grace to become devoted to Him and become decorated by His presence in your life. 
King David knows what is best to desire when he said, “One thing I have desired of the LORD, that will I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in His temple.” (Psalm 27:4)
As an acclaimed believer, search for yourself to know if you have the desire for God.
Let your desire be of seeking God.
Seeking God leads to serving Him. 
Are you serving God fully?
Are you serving God for your material gain?
Search yourself to identify how you are serving God.
Serve God diligently the evidence of fear for Him.
Apostle Paul encourages, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.” (Romans 12:1)
With understanding, know to serve God sacrificially and let your serving God be acceptable before God alone. 
It is costly to serve God sacrificially, not at the convenience but demands commitment. 
Does your heart sincerely desire to seek God?
Will you question yourself if you are serving God in truth with all your heart?
God has done great things, doing more, which is the reason to have the desire for God, with heart. 
God only sees and moves by the action rooted in the heart of all. 
God saw Samuel with his attempt to make the brother of David as the king and spoke to him: “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:7) 
Without doubt, the heart of David is what God saw when His word declared, “…The Lord has sought for Himself a man after His own heart, and the Lord has commanded him to be commander over His people” (1 Samuel 13:14) 
God saw the desire of David. 
What do you desire? 
The desire for God must be in the mind of all and not just in the mouth.
If you have a desire for God in your heart, God will deposit the grace to become devoted to Him and become decorated by His presence in your life. 
Do not serve God casually but serve God by following God fully as Jesus requests: “If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me…” 
Following Jesus means putting all away to follow Him is evidence of having a desire to serve God. 

Prayer for today: Ask to live life with a desire for God.
