Eyes to See...

 

Reflections must play a pivotal role in our lives if we are to have any hope when it comes to finding true repentance. And yet I also realize that without the Holy Spirit’s intervention in our lives this too would remain distant. There would be no need to reflect but to rather accuse others whilst excusing ourselves. “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” (Jeremiah 17:9)­­­_­­

This is a great tragedy, but before we can truly dissect who we are, it is pivotal that we build upon this truth; “Let God be true and everyone else a liar.” – “By no means! Let God be true though every one were a liar, as it is written, “That you may be justified in your words, and prevail when you are judged.”  (Romans 3:4)      

Before you read on, decide where you stand, you are either willing to place the intellect of man and their persuasive arguments in highest regard or have you decided to stand on the Word of God, the Bible as your final authority? As for me and my household, even whilst some may be flirting with death and the influence of those under the spell of the evil one, I will serve the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to the best of my capability. SO! This is where I have landed, when my mind begins to rationalize above the confirmation of scripture I conclude that I am wrong and God is right, period! Even if I don’t understand. Never wrestle with a truth from the Bible at the expense of the world’s voices. Always go to the Bible for answers. The remedy for being centred isn’t Yoga, but rather allowing yourselves to be read by the Bible. Let me emphasis my point; when we read the Bible it actually reads us. It’s a phenomenal stroke of genius that God has afford mankind, such a privilege. We read about someone else and we know the reference is not only on them but on us, it is a yardstick to keep us in check. Our God has given us a book that maps out how to get to Him, a detailed trove of treasure. Wow! How good is our God?                                                                                                

It is easy to say something but something else altogether to live it. Hypocrisy dominates the world’s population. We are back to the state of our hearts, we excuse ourselves but are very quick to accuse others.

 

Therefore always remember to put the will of God our Father above any voice or fad that you may encounter, if not you are only even asking for a world of hurt. And sadly sometimes it’s the only thing some of us ever respond too.
