FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong> Acclaimed believers are not hearing God\u2019s calling but busy giving self to personal calling.<\/p>\n

Matthew 5
\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Personalizing the written word of God means you will relate with God to answer His calling. It is written, \u201cYou are the salt of the earth;<\/em><\/strong> but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.\u201d (Matthew 5:13)<\/em><\/strong> The word of God speaks individually to man. The word calls man to answer as salt and be seasoning world but not to live as a \u201cno good one that is place under foot of wicked world.\u201d Are you answering His call upon your life? Matthew 5:14-16<\/em><\/strong> is written as a calling for man, \u201cYou are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.<\/em><\/strong> Nor do they<\/em><\/strong> light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0 Let your light so shine before men,<\/em><\/strong> that they may see your good works and<\/em><\/strong> glorify your Father in heaven.<\/em><\/strong>\u201d Word of God speaks personally to man that listens to hear. Word of God is calling man as light but not comparing man to light. Are you living as light not as darkness? Have you taken a position outside of God\u2019s calling? Man, that is true to God\u2019s word; living as believer of God should take a position in God\u2019s created world as light. Acclaimed believer is to answer His calling without hiding but terminating darkness. As a believer of God\u2019s word, are you personalizing the word of God to hear His calling upon your life for His glory?
\nAcclaimed believers are not hearing God\u2019s calling but busy giving self to personal calling. Believers are pleasing self but not pleasing God according to God\u2019s calling. World is not experiencing light while darkness is covering the world. When God calls, He is able to back you and see you through. Did He call you? It is time to answer His calling by rising up and shine for God\u2019s calling. Isaiah 60:1-2<\/em><\/strong> warned with encouragement to answer God\u2019s calling as stated, \u201c<\/em><\/strong>Arise<\/em><\/strong>, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; But the Lord will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you.\u201d <\/em><\/strong>Think of it, there is nothing to live for but to live for God. The challenges of living for God are huge and it can be exhausting and painful. However, it is always gainful in every answering for God\u2019s calling. God is faithful and if He calls you He will back you up when you chose not to back out of His calling.<\/p>\n

Prayer for today:<\/strong> Ask God to take over your days and moment that you will live life for His glory.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
