A heart that's so far away...!

Isaiah 29:13-14 NKJV

Therefore the Lord said: “Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths And honor Me with their lips, But have removed their hearts far from Me, And their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men, Therefore, behold, I will again do a marvelous work Among this people, A marvelous work and a wonder; For the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, And the understanding of their prudent men shall be hidden.”

† Shalom †......! Day #300. Do you know that many believers draw near to God with their mouths and honor Him with their lips, but their hearts  so far from God? Let's pray. Father, let us be not as a hypocrite honor You with our lips, but our hearts is somewhere far from You. Help us to be true and real with You. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Many of us say that "I believe in Jesus, I love God, I do this for God, I do that for God" but little do we realize that everything we do is just a "lip service" unto God and not wholeheartedly. We still can serve yet our heart is somewhere far away from there Lord. We say we serve God, but we expect something in return from God - either blessings or something else. We serve with a wrong motive. Our motivation isn't right before God. Many are just "touch n go" believers,  they come to church on Sundays just to warm the chairs and go back, they didn't receive anything from the word of God, a Christian for name sake.

Now, in order for God to captivate our hearts again, He has to do great and mighty things again so that then our heart will turn to Him and begin to believe in Him. Isn't it a sad situation? We run away from God and God is trying to win back our hearts so that we will not give Him "lip service " but come to Him wholeheartedly. Folks, I don't know what you are going through, but one thing I can assure you is that, when you are gping through hard times, run to God as soon as possible so that your hearts and minds will not be filled with the Devils lies. Never live as a "lip service l" Christian nut be true to God, be real with Him. Gbu.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
