FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong>\nLive life for God by following Him in His word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ecclesiastes 8<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seeking God diligently is following God in His way, living life to please God and be counted for His reward.<\/a>
Among ways of seeking God by following Him are:
BE AWAKE SPIRITUALLY BEFORE GOD
Are you awake spiritually, living life by the word of God?
The wicked world demands to be awake seeking God diligently and not be asleep spiritually. One that is not living for God is sleeping before God spiritually.
Jesus\u2019 parable is an everyday truth with a spiritual application, it is an earthly truth with a heavenly meaning in His parable of sleeping in the place of serving God.\u00a0Matthew 13:25-30<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0records,\u00a0\u201c…but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared. So the servants of the owner came and said to him, \u2018Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?\u2019 He said to them, \u2018An enemy has done this.\u2019 The servants said to him, \u2018Do you want us then to go and gather them up?\u2019 But he said, \u2018No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, \u201cFirst gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them but gather the wheat into my barn.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>
The above parable of Jesus reveals that sleeping will displace following God with the wicked to gain entrance into man\u2019s life. Every time one is sleeping before God will position man to be FAR from GOD that is not FAR to all.
Sleeping before God cannot possibly follow God, living for God.
TO COME OUT OF WICKEDNESS\u00a0is living right to seek God diligently. It is important to know that the wickedness is continual, walking outside of God’s word. One that is walking outside of God’s word will walk in line with the evil activities of the wicked world.
GOD will judge the wicked world at His appointed time.\u00a0
Ecclesiastes 8:11-12 warned, \u201cBecause the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil. Though a sinner does evil a hundred times, and his days are prolonged, yet I surely know that it will be well with those who fear God, who fear before Him.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0Seeking God diligently will follow God continually not to be counted with the wicked world at the appointed time of God’s judgment.
Like a seed, sow self in God by seeking God diligently. Follow God to be standing in God.
Seek God diligently is following God by His word to please God and be rewarded by God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prayer for today:<\/strong>\nAsk from God that your step be rooted in His word, to\nfollow Him all the days of life He has given you. <\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
