Matthew 6:33
“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”. What happened? Thousand years later and here we are doing the same thing that was done before, but we think we are doing good. We can say we love God but our hearts are far from Him. I needed to confess to God and turn back to Him with ALL my heart before I could help anybody else do the same thing. What am I talking about? Just as the children of Israel came out of Egypt, followed God in a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night, complained and wanted to go back to Egypt, we are a people who came to Christ through watered down Gospel messages, that He was our buddy and started living like the world and mixed God in it to help us get what we could. How much of the world is getting in the way of our loving the Lord our God with ALL of our hearts? In Isaiah 29:13 we read, “Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths And honor Me with their lips, But have removed their hearts far from Me”. Is God really HOLY to you? Against the backdrop of His Holiness, I have seen what He has done for me, and now I must say, Woe is me for I am undone, for the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY who sought me and bought me, cleansed me and set me free is worthy of it all! I don’t want to hold back any part of my heart from my Holy God. How about you?
