I am studying I and II Chronicles. I hope you enjoy me sharing with you what I am learning about The Steps to Holiness.
In this world today, we have no time to waste. We need to be getting ready for the return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We not only need to be sharing God’s word with the world, but letting them see God in us. IIChronicles 19:2-3, “And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, (Jehosphaphat) and said to King Jehospaphat. “Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the Lord? Therefore the wrath of the Lord is upon you. Nevertheless good things are found in you, in that you have removed the wooden images from the land, and have prepared your heart to seek God.”
Steps to Holiness require that we guard our associations. We must be careful not only to shun unrighteousness and worldliness ourselves, but not to support or participate with others who promote it. Be careful not to promote the ungodly or to support those whose ways contradict the Scriptures and thus displease the Lord. Avoid evil ethic of expediency. Do not employ procedures or practices you suspect of being unethical or ungodly, even if they promise success.
II Chronicles 1: 10-12, “Now give me wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this great people of Yours?” Then God said to Solomon: “Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked riches or wealth or honor or the life of your enemies, not have you asked long life, but have asked wisdom and knowledge for yourself, that you may judge My people over who I have made you king, wisdom and knowledge are granted to you; and I will give you riches and wealth and honor, such as none of the kings have had who were before you, nor shall any after you have the like.”
Steps to Dynamic Devotion is in those whose hearts are fully devoted to God. Scripture maintains a consistent testimony that those whose hearts are devoted to God are blessed by Him. Partial devotion to God, lukewarmness, inevitably results in spiritual mediocrity and sporadic communion with the Lord. Be confident that God honors those who depend upon His wisdom to carry out the work He has assigned them. Be confident that if you seek God with all your heart and soul, He will surety be found by you. Maintain a heart that is fully committed to the Lord. Know that the Lord seeks out such to strengthen them and prosper their works.
