Devotion : Lord Help Me To Get This Right

Testimony: When I first began to come to Christ I struggled. I witnessed a lot of hypocrisy and pettiness and I didn’t understand because God was dealing with me so heavily on why certain things were wrong. Did I make mistakes ? Yes. Did I sin ? Yes. But now I understand that there were some things that I needed to change (that was not being taught) to effectively walk forward in Christ.

1. Guard Your Heart

Dear friend, take my advice; it will add years to your life. I’m writing out clear directions to Wisdom Way, I’m drawing a map to Righteous Road. I don’t want you ending up in blind alleys, or wasting time making wrong turns. Hold tight to good advice; don’t relax your grip. Guard it well—your life is at stake! Don’t take Wicked Bypass; don’t so much as set foot on that road. Stay clear of it; give it a wide berth. Make a detour and be on your way.

You can do this by stop listening to certain secular music such as Beyonce , Queen Naija , Katy Perry, Michael Jackson, and Justin Timberlake . Start listening to more gospel music such as Mississippi Mass Choir , Elavation Worship, or Bethel !

2. Abuse from Church leaders is not love .

Judah has been unfaithful, and a detestable thing has been done in Israel and in Jerusalem. The men of Judah have defiled the Lord ’s beloved sanctuary by marrying women who worship idols. May the Lord cut off from the nation of Israel every last man who has done this and yet brings an offering to the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. Here is another thing you do. You cover the Lord ’s altar with tears, weeping and groaning because he pays no attention to your offerings and doesn’t accept them with pleasure. You cry out, “Why doesn’t the Lord accept my worship?” I’ll tell you why! Because the Lord witnessed the vows you and your wife made when you were young. But you have been unfaithful to her, though she remained your faithful partner, the wife of your marriage vows. Didn’t the Lord make you one with your wife? In body and spirit you are his. And what does he want? Godly children from your union. So guard your heart; remain loyal to the wife of your youth. “For I hate divorce!” says the Lord , the God of Israel. “To divorce your wife is to overwhelm her with cruelty, ” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. “So guard your heart; do not be unfaithful to your wife.” You have wearied the Lord with your words. “How have we wearied him?” you ask. You have wearied him by saying that all who do evil are good in the Lord ’s sight, and he is pleased with them. You have wearied him by asking, “Where is the God of justice?”

Today ask God for wisdom and understanding in regards to your life and He will answer you.

If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking.
