THE TEST OF GOD THE SEED
MAY 11 WED 2022
“But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.” 1 Sam. 16: 7 KJV
This is one of the most frightening portions of scripture I have ever encountered, for we all know that God can test the heart (Deut. 8: 3; Ps. 105: 19).
But here we see a man that was tested by God and failed, all without his knowledge. My brother, my sister, God is watching us and He sees all. He sees the hidden motives of our heart, whether they line up with the words of our mouth or not.
It is possible to fool people and it is even possible to fool one’s own self. But we can never fool God.
Even if your efforts fall short, always guard your heart, and ensure you address all your wrong intentions and negative motives. You may not know when God is evaluating your heart. But if you make it a habit to judge your heart and decisions, it is possible you will pass. PRAYER
Heavenly Father, have mercy on me. Help me to learn to be honest with myself, so I can have the chance to be honest before You, in Jesus name Amen.
