FAITH CAPSULE: Give regard to God, and know to avoid captivity.
Psalm 145
Know God to fear God, and give regard to God more than ever.
Know God that is able and in place to deliver in all challenges.
Give regard to God that gives possibility over impossibility.
Giving regard to God is rooted in knowledge not to become a victim of captivity.
It is not possible to stop growing in the knowledge of God.
Knowing God is a continual and never be an end in knowing God.
Do you know God not just to know about God?
Get to know God and gain knowledge having an edge in ways of life.
One with the lack of knowledge is with an assurance to enter in the way that leads to captivity.
Isaiah 5:13 confirms, “Therefore my people have gone into captivity because they have no knowledge; Their honorable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.”
Without a doubt, the act of knowing is the way out of captivity.
For example, giving regard to the work of God is with consideration for His works and not misplacing knowledge of God that keeps one from captivity.
In life, Isaiah 5:12 clearly states the reason why the lack of knowledge drives to captivity, “…But they do not regard the work of the LORD, nor consider the operation of His hands.”
Psalmist also confirms that a failure not to give regard to the work of God destroys as it states, “Because they do not regard the works of the LORD, nor the operation of His hands, He shall destroy them and not build them up.” (Psalm 28:5)
Give regards to God, know to avoid captivity, the way of destruction, and not be built for God.
Giving regard to God is consciously paying attention to the operation of the hand of God.
Meditating on the word of God is the meditation of the word of God that creates all His work.
Meditation is not memorizing the word of God in the head.
Meditation is learning laboriously in the heart day and night to establish continual communication with God.
As a desire for the knowledge to be regarding the work of God and not be a victim of captivity, allow mediation of the word of God to become your way of living life.
Regarding the word of God is looking closely or attentively to observe steadily, to hold in awe (reverence, fear, wonder, respect) to look upon or consider in a specified way.
Give regards to the wondrous works of God that declare His name near to all.
Psalm 75:1 testifies, “We give thanks to You, O God, we give thanks! For Your wondrous works declare that Your name is near.”
Why not begin to give regard to the works of His hand to gain and maintain the fear of God that keeps one from any form of captivity?
Give regard to God more than ever, and gain the knowledge not to become a victim of the challenges of today.
Prayer for today: Ask God to enable you to be giving regard to Him.
