FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong> Man should not live life in assumptions that seems right.<\/p>\n

Jonah 1<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is written, \u201cHe made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel.\u201d (Psalm 103:7)<\/em><\/strong> The ways of God are in the word of God. The words of God are the acts of God while His acts are His direction and His testimonies. Living life in the word of God is living in the ways of God. Also living in the acts of God is living by keeping the testimonies of God. Man should not live life in assumptions that seems right. The bible stated, \u201cThere is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.\u201d (Proverbs 14:12)<\/em><\/strong> In your ways of life, are you allowing assumptions to take you for ride or your allowing the ways of God to take charge in the ways of life? In this world, take to the ways of God!
\nJust like Moses, those that walk in the ways of God walks in His law and they are blessed. Psalm 119:1<\/em><\/strong> buttressed, \u201c<\/em>Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the <\/em>Lord<\/em><\/strong>!\u201d<\/strong> <\/em>Ones that keep the testimonies of God live by the ways of God and they are blessed. Psalm 119:2<\/em><\/strong> also buttressed, \u201cBlessed are those who keep His testimonies, who seek Him with the whole heart.\u201d <\/em><\/strong>The word of God cannot be broken. It is important to know the ways God, to keep His acts that which are His testimonies to enable seeking God diligently. For those who seek Him diligently, the word of God promised, \u201c<\/em><\/strong>I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently will find me.\u201d (Proverbs 8:17) \u201cBut without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.\u201d (Hebrews 11:6)<\/em><\/strong> As an acclaimed believer, embrace His ways and meditate His acts to become a diligent seeker of the Lord God.
\nAre you answering to your calling? Truly, answering to God\u2019s calling is to come out and not hide. Ways of God and the acts of God comes along with His calling.\u00a0 To hide from God\u2019s calling is turning back to God\u2019s calling, walking away from His presence. In this wicked world, there is a need to answer fully to the word (way) of God and not give self to one\u2019s ways of assumption. Jonah turned to his way despite hearing from God and the presence of God deserted Him. It is written, \u201cNow the word of the <\/em><\/strong>Lord<\/em><\/strong> came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,\u00a0<\/sup>\u201cArise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it; for their wickedness has come up before Me.\u201d\u00a0<\/sup>But Jonah arose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the <\/em><\/strong>Lord<\/em><\/strong>\u2026\u201d (Jonah 1:1-3)<\/em><\/strong> God has made known His ways and acts to man in the pages of bible and it is for man to engage His ways for His glory.<\/p>\n

Prayer for today:<\/strong> Ask God for His grace to give self to His ways for His glory.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
