HAVE THE FEAR OF GOD

It’s very easy to recognize a reprobate mind. It will show no regard for God or the things of God and will also gladly support those who oppose the things of God and the mandate of heaven. Such a person cannot but make a mess of the way of the cross and will always be positioned to mislead innocent hearts from the truth into lawlessness. They are all over the place and commonly use their efforts and status to make more disciples to sin rather than expose the secret works of the devil so that men can quickly repent and start identifying with God. You must mark these kinds of people and avoid their ways and suggestions. If you have the love of God and you fear Him from within you, you will never desire to partake in other people’s sins or make yourself available to be used as an instrument in the hand of the devil. Therefore, you need to watch your ways and be clearly separated unto God in all that you do.
Beloved, we serve a very fearful God. That is why you should fear for those who do not fear God. Life becomes vulnerable outside the fear of God. It is curiosity that makes a goat to go and greet a hyena. That goat will instantly become food in the mouth of the hyena. Your fear and respect for God is clearly seen in your conduct and way of life. If your character is not a match for your confession and profession, you have only succeeded in deceiving nobody but yourself. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and that will teach you to obey all the commandments of God wherever you go.

If the kind of relationships you keep are those who have no regard for God you need to stay off them then repent. Do you really fear and respect God?

Prayer: Help me to always live with your fear in me
