Proverbs 14:2 "Do You Really Love God?"


He who walks in his uprightness fears the LORD, but he who is perverse in his ways despises Him.”
How easy it is to say we love God! It is even easy to fool others into thinking we are 'good Christians.' Read this verse carefully. If you walk in uprightness, if you obey the commands of God, you fear Him. If not, if you are perverse, following your own desires, your own passions, your own 'god', then you despise the true God. What you do in secret will be exposed publicly. You may pretend devotion, but if you are not obedient to God's commands, you will be reckoned with as a despiser of God Himself.

Do you even know God's commands as laid out in the New Testament? Commit this day to search the Scriptures, find them, make a list of them, and obey them. Matthew 5-7 is an excellent place to start.
