"Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?"
Proverbs 20:6
God is in search of faithful men. A faithful man is a loyal man.
In 2 Chronicles 16:9 the Bible says, "For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him…" The Contemporary English Version puts it this way, "The LORD is constantly watching everyone, and he gives strength to those who faithfully obey him…" The Good News Bible says, "The LORD keeps close watch over the whole world, to give strength to those whose hearts are loyal to him…"
In 2 Chronicles 25 the Bible tells us about a king named Amaziah. 2 Chronicles 25:2 says, "And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, but not with a perfect heart." The Contemporary English Version puts it this way, "Even though Amaziah obeyed the LORD by doing right, he refused to be completely faithful." The Good News Bible says, "He did what was pleasing to the LORD, but did it reluctantly."
Do not be one of those who only do things for the Lord because it is convenient, do the things you do for the Lord because you have chosen to be completely faithful and committed to Him from your heart.
Prayer.
Dear Father, expose every seed of falsehood that has entered into my belief system and help me to fulfill your plan and purpose for my life without reproach, in Jesus Name. Amen.
