'...Who set their hearts on seeking the Lord God...'
During this time in our history there has been a continual slide away from the things of God and we have taken the path towards idols and vain philosophies - there is truly rebellion against the Lord God Almighty in our land.
Just as in the time of Jeroboam, the power seeking leader of Israel, when he led people to rebel against the Lord, so in our time we see the fruit of that rebellion in our country. Yet there were a people, a remnant, that did not follow along with the rebellion. Their desire was to follow the Lord even though the leader of Israel did not - they set their hearts on seeking the Lord God.
In our day what will the response of the body of Christ be to the rebellion in the land? For the Lord has said that He always maintains a remnant for His own - those whose hearts seek Him.
So, will we set our hearts on seeking the Lord God, will we stand firm in His truth? Or will we follow the counsel of the ungodly and accept the idol worship and vain philosophies of this world - that is rebellion against the Lord?
May Your remnant Lord be encouraged and our hearts filled with joy and our minds with holy fear.
Father God Almighty may it be our heart's desire that we seek after You,
Lord Jesus may our lives be a living sacrifice wholly devoted to You,
Holy Spirit may we surrender to Your leading as You guide us into all truth.
