Living Word 8/16/08

Because of iniquity the love of many has and will grow cold, but the prize is to those who finish the race. Failure to do the first works is not the way. Do the first works (Rev 2:4). Think on these things, for they are good and Holy and will bring a good report. Do not allow yourself to be lulled into slumber, not watching. Keep your mind set on the things of God, things eternal. The trial of your will is to do My (God’s) will, stay in My rest. Trust in Me (God) as a good Master, Lord and King, waiting on My commands, which are not grievous or more than you can bear.

Faith in truth pleases Me (God). Faith in Me has its reward of life in My Spirit. This is hidden from the proud of heart, the deceived and fearful. What hinders you but your own unbelief?

By whose wisdom would you be coupled to unbelievers? By what spirit do you judge who is of Me and who is not? Your very soul stands in the decision of what voice you will follow after; the voice of wisdom or the voice of your comfort. Decide which has the reward you desire, this world, the flesh or Me and My reward.
