SET YOUR HEART AND YOUR SOUL TO SEEK THE LORD YOUR GOD – PART III
In the beginning of this message the previous words, sentences, and paragraphs (really the sum of the whole thing, all backed by the Holy scriptures), are to get your attention on how me, you, and all everyone else, at one time or another, are going through life inadvertently serving the devil/money, our mortal enemy, and his means of persuasion. This is done by giving in to the social expectations and whims of ungodly men while wanting to be popular with the world rather than live in Truth with Yashuah (Jesus). Who are you serving? (Matthew 6:24 “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money).
You will notice that not once have I said living for or serving YAH (GOD), others in a godly way, or self but, for the world and all that it has to offer (death and destruction) as we look through the rose-colored looking glass (which distorts all that is righteous). You do not see the clear and true message that is being delivered to you by the devil, so you do not understand what and why things are happening. Due to the self-imposed position, you have given yourself, as master of your own fate, nor do you try to. But this way of thinking and approaching life is wrong, and it is a sin. And if we are ever going to see the light and the true fullness of our lives, through the WORD, WILL, and WAY of YHWH (GOD), we must come to grips with GOD’S Truth and stop squinting in the mist of the world’s confusion attempting to maneuver through this fog of darkness alone. To make it through the middle of all this, we must accept and get on our assigned path, our destiny. Because if we get on and continue on the righteous path, it Will not be long before the weather clears and the SON will shine so bright, through the darkness, it will dispel it all. We will see things clearly as YAH (GOD) sees us and we will know Him, personally, as He knows us. (1 Corinthians 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known).
Have you even stopped to seek and search out what gift or talent, given to you, for the sole purpose to serve YAH, through Yashuah? Or have you gotten an indication or inkling that, was strongly impressed upon you; causing you to meditate (think in serious depth and with an open mind, ear, and heart to hear, comprehend, and receive Yashuah’s entire message of salvation: which includes working out your own deliverance from the power and effects of sin)? It is not for us to obey when we think someone is looking or hearing us, (YAH, God sees and hears all), but to be more aggressive in doing the will of YHWH (GOD), when no one is present: live in responsive obedience; keep living righteously despite what is happening around you. Knowing that with the help of our Lord and Saviour, Yashuah’s love and truth, it enables you to sense the righteous thing to do. And sometimes, even if we do not understand it, YHWH (God) allow us to get in such circumstances and situations, while giving us energy to work toward His pleasure, (our salvation with Him), as part of the purpose and plan YHWH (GOD), through Yashuah (Jesus), has for you to purposely promote your progress. So, be without boundaries, when it comes to the energy you release, toward the labor of love and exertion of power, as directed by the Holy Spirit (and not work of your own), in obtaining your eternal salvation with Yashuah (Jesus). Because the path to righteousness is not one for whimps; it takes a bold, courageous, made up mind and spirit to get on and follow it. Also, in your search for YAH’s salvation for you, you must be submissive, respectful, humble, and gain the ability to perceive and respond to the call of God or the spiritual demands of the moment. (Philippians 2:12-13 12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. 13 for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure).
He wants us to serve Him according to His Plan not man’s. For His love for us never fades nor fail. He is in total control, no matter how dark it seems. The darker this moment the lighter the Light will be. He wants us to start living, without reservation, the joyous, prosperous, giving, compassionate (all the fruit of a godly, righteous spirit), that is in us to live. (Galatians 5:22-23 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law). Because there are no words, spoken of man, that can come against the pure nature of YAH (GOD) and last. GODS GOT IT NO WORRY NO FEAR.
