FAITH CAPSULE: Are you answering as Christian?

Jeremiah 12 

Who are you?
Are you an acclaimed believer as a Christian?
The majority are answering as a Christian but not CHRIST-LIKE, by their way of living life. 
Following the word of God as the disciples of Jesus are CHRIST-LIKE just as it started in Antioch.
Acts 11:26 points out, “And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.”
The majority answering as Christians are far from following the word of Christ but following the world.
The majority of acclaimed Christians are not as disciples in Antioch but are with the character of telling lies, deceiving, and manipulating their world.
Who are you?
Seek God diligently answering as Christ-like.
Are you an acclaimed believer that carries the Bible (the word of God) in the head but not in the heart, not allowed the word in the ways of life? 
Are you an acclaimed believer who talks than to listen to hear from God?
Are you walking from God in the place to walk with God or walk in Him?
Enoch walked with God. (Genesis 5:21-24)
Noah walked with God (Genesis 6:9) 
Abraham walked before God when God called him out to walk before Him. (Genesis 17:1) 
The word of God points that walking with God, walking before God, is walking in Him. Colossians 2:6 states, “As you, therefore, have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him.”
Who are you?
Are you talking about the word of God but not walking the word of God?
Talking without walking the word will not deliver the power in the word of God.
Isaiah 54:17 records, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn…” 
Are you quoting the word of God but not living by the word of God?
Without walking the word of God, expecting the manifestation of the power of God is in self-deception. 
God is not a careless giver to one that does not walk in His word.
Who are you?
Are you wicked and not knowing that you God sees all?
Many believers, not just unbelievers, are wicked.
Before God, Jeremiah 12:1-2 points out who is wicked, 
“Righteous are You, O Lord when I plead with You; Yet let me talk with You about Your judgments. Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why are those happy who deal so treacherously? You have planted them, yes they have taken root; They grow, yes, they bear fruit. You are near in their mouth But far from their mind.”
Believers with the word of God in the mouth but far from the heart are wicked.
Who are you?
Get to know yourself to give back to God by seeking Him.
From today, declare a desire to give more to God.
Serving God is not about asking for what is needed.
In the place of asking from God, search for yourself to identify what you will give back to God.
Be mindful of God.

Prayer for today: Ask that be enabled to seek God more diligently.
