Many people will have little to do with the Lord. Why? I believe they feel His requirements are too strenuous. Actually, it’s man’s rules more than God’s rules. Man wants all the requirements and rules applied to all the people except for himself. God’s requirements only involve a few requirements.
- God wants us to act justly to all people. He treats us fairly and rightly. It’s much easier to treat people justly who treat us justly. He wants us to treat justly even those who treat us badly.
2. We are to love faithfulness. God can never be unfaithful to His children. He expects us to love faithfulness and pour it out on all of those God has placed in our sphere of influence.
3. God expects us to. walk humbly with our God. It’s easy to walk in arrogance. Walking in humility is not always the easiest pathway; however it’s the one God requires of us.
Christians and non-Christians innately know the difference between right and wrong. Believers are inhabited by God’s Holy Spirit who prompts them to obey Him. Still, He is such a gentleman, he never forces us against our will to obey His.
The three things above are not impossible to obey. We do however need to examine ourselves to see if we are acting justly, loving faithfulness, and walking humbly with our God. He longs to show you if you are doing all. three. Just ask Him today and then watch to see what He reveals to you.
Prayer in Motion:
Lord Jesus, help me to obey these three requirements on a daily basis. Teach me Lord. In Jesus Name. Amen.
