"Persist in Obedience!"

 

"Seeking HIS Glory!"

 

Romans 2:5-10 (New International Version)

But because of your stubbornness and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of God's wrath, when his righteous judgment will be revealed. God "will give to each person according to what he has done." To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger. There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile; but glory, honor and peace for everyone who does good: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.

Anyone who refuses to repent, according to the Apostle Paul, because of stubbornness, self-seeking glory or simply implicating someone else as the reason behind their lack of obedience, are designing their own judgement and denying that God's wrath against their disobedience will be revealed.

As a believer in Christ, I must live, speak and seek passionately God's righteousness, and leave every act of unrighteousness out of my life.

No one else will be held accountable for my actions, regardless of whether they act unrighteously towards me, it is God and HIS WORD alone that has set the terms of judgement against each man's personal account.

Every Believer in Christ must embrace this TRUTH, and live their life according to God's principles, and allow Holy Spirit to guide them on the pathway of holiness and righteousness, to which HIS judgement will prove the wicked and expose their evil ways in The Last Days.

 

O'Lord, guide me along in this journey,
that my life be pleasing in YOUR sight alone!
Redeeming me against the judgement I deserve,
show me more of YOUR righteousness!!
Lavish upon me prosperity in spiritual wealth
that YOU will be Glorified and Honored!!!
Bring me into deeper fellowship and union,
that I will be a witness for YOU,
persistent and unwavering in my obedience!

 

 

Amen!
