God brought the Israelites out of the bondage of over four hundred years to seek and serve Him. What is representing bondage of Egypt in your life and not able to seek and serve God?<br \/>\nIn life, the lack of understanding to be serving God is limiting the manifestation of God\u2019s power in man\u2019s life. Just as the Israelites were in the bondage of Egypt for over four hundred years, are you in any bondage of life and not able to seek and serve God?<br \/>\nIsraelites were delivered out of the bondage of Egypt with the purpose of serving God. Just like the Israelites, God wants man to be out of every representative of Egypt in life and be seeking Him for His glory. God spoke to Moses, <strong><em>\u201c\u2026When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain.\u201d (Exodus 3:12)<\/em><\/strong> God also sent Moses to Pharaoh stating, <strong><em>\u201cThen you shall say to Pharaoh, \u2018thus says the <\/em><\/strong><strong><em>Lord<\/em><\/strong><strong><em>: \u201cIsrael is My son, My firstborn. <sup>\u00a0<\/sup>So I say to you, let My son go that he may serve Me\u2026\u201d (Exodus 4:22-23)<\/em><\/strong> God is a jealous God and He wants nothing from us but to seek and serve Him.<br \/>\nSeeking God, serving God today should be a way of living life in preparation and be ready to see (testify) the glory of God. The coming out of Egypt to serve God demanded from the Israelites to prepare and be ready for the visitation of God. God spoke to Moses, <strong><em>\u201cGo to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes. And let them be ready for the third day. For on the third day the <\/em><\/strong><strong><em>Lord<\/em><\/strong><strong><em> will come down upon Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.\u201d (Exodus 19:10-11)<\/em><\/strong> Man must seek God to be seeing God by encountering His visitation for salvation in this wicked world of today. The Israelites were commanded to prepare (to consecrate and wash their clothes) and be ready for God\u2019s visitation. Today, man should live daily prepared (by living the word of God) and be ready to engage and maintain the hand of God for unfailing deliverance in the wicked world of today. Are you seeking God daily with preparation and to be ready for God\u2019s visitation?<br \/>\nEngage the word of God daily to be prepared, be ready for God\u2019s visitation and not to miss His visitation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer for today:<\/strong> <em>Ask for the grace of God\u00a0 for you to seek and serve God at every breath He has given you.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FAITH CAPSULE: Seek and serve God to prepare and be ready for His visitation.
