Recently, the Lord has been giving many warnings from our daily devotion about being stubborn, stiff-necked, proud, haughty etc... Ps 81 also is a warning to Israel against worship to foreign gods and those who do not heed the voice of God ... and there is a consequence when we disobey God. He will give us over to our stubborn hearts and walk in our own counsel.
God forbid that we should take this course of action to walk in our ways and ignore the sweet presence and fellowship of the Holy Spirit.... He is longing for more and more of us. Our intimacy, our devotion, our honour so that we will bring Him much delight and joy!
Let's keep pressing in to seek the face of God rather than just His hand of blessing, success and reward. When we learn to honour the Lord .. Matt 10:40, He will know how to honour and reward us in return. He is a God of His Word. His Word will not return to Him void.
You know, I have been deeply grieved when I see much self-centredness, greed and lust of the flesh from some around me... I wish we could still our hearts together and begin to allow the Lord to speak and reveal His broken heart to us this Good Friday. He really misses us .... He wants to have all of us, He is a jealous God who is waiting to sup with us and draw near to us. He wants to come and heal us and make us whole, He wants to mend broken marriages and bring deeper intimacy and love, He wants to demonstrate signs and wonders among us .... all because He is God!
May we take time to reflect and ponder on the goodness of God and give all glory, honour and our heart-felt devotion to Him. Glory be to His Glorious Name!!
