Jayamsih..! Welcome to today’s devotion!
Who is running your life?
James 1:8
- Many people are not steadfast in the will of God because they do not allow themselves to be constantly changed by the mind of Christ. They are ambivalent, and they allow people, situations, inner fears and reservations to keep them from meeting in a place where they can take the word of faith. Even though they hear the word, they are taken out by other people who are worldly in nature. These people may bear the stamp of a believer, but their confession alone is sufficient to keep them in peace and harmony that reaches eternity.
They don’t want to go that far from Egypt. They seek “social security” for their old sinful nature. Let us not be double minded, but let us put aside all those things that can make us bad towards God. Let’s not even give people a chance to think alone for a moment, but instead take the word of God with humility. Let nothing of predestination keep you from double-minded self-deception. Giving your rights through humility only gives you the integrity of God’s heart. If you do not take the word with humility, the word will never become your personal property. You can never build on it, because it is not with you. Rather, by having your life torn and permeated by birds, and not starting from God’s mind, you become circumscribed.
