Man, that pleases God will seek Him diligently to provoke the rewarder of God.<br \/>\nIn this coming days, desire and pray for the grace to be pleasing God instead of pleasing man. In this wicked world of deception, lying and manipulations, avoid giving self to pleasing man in the place of pleasing God. It is important to know that God cannot be deceived. <strong><em>Proverbs 16:2 <\/em><\/strong>buttress<strong><em>, \u201cAll the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes; but the Lord weighs the spirits.\u201d <\/em><\/strong>God is the perfect and only creator that wants us to be pleasing Him in all His ways as commanded in His word. Pleasing Him by walking in His ways will keep man from becoming a victim in the hands of enemies. The word of God buttressed in <strong><em>Proverbs 16:7, \u201cWhen a man\u2019s ways please the LORD, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> God has given us His word which is our assurance to gain the blessing of pleasing Him. Take to the way (word) of God not the way that seems right to you.<br \/>\nAre you taking to the way of God? Begin to take to the way of God and God will take you beyond your expectation. Starting from this day, always take to the way of God. The word counsels, <strong><em>\u201cThere is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.\u201d (Proverbs 16:25)<\/em><\/strong> The way that seems right is outside of the way of God. No matter how far the way that seems right has taken you, today is time to turn to the way of God.<br \/>\nAny other way outside of the way of God is a way of self-destruction. Truly, in the written word of God, it has not been documented about anyone that has taken to the way of God and ended up in destruction. It is documented and it is evident that all who has taken to their own way ended up in destruction. It does not matter how long you have been walking outside of His way without self-destruction but it matters that you begin to take to the way of God and avoid self-destruction.<br \/>\nIt is assured in the word of God that the way of God, <strong><em>\u201c\u2026will guard the feet of His saints, but the wicked shall be silent in darkness. For by strength no man shall prevail.\u201d (1Samuel 2:9)<\/em><\/strong> When there is a will or desire to walk in His way, He will guide your feet to walk in His way.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer for today:<\/strong> <em>Ask for the grace to please God in all your ways.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FAITH CAPSULE: Are you serving God the way that seems right to you?
