Be Purposeful and Intentional
In life, we face femptations and trials. In 2 Chronicles 14, we read that King Asa DID what was good and right in the eyes of the Lord. We need to BE INTENTIONAL and PURPOSEFUL in our actions. Just as King Asa REMOVED, BROKE and CUT down the wooden images of the foreign gods, we need to run away, remove ourselves, break and cut any ties or relationships that may tempt us to sin against God. 2ndly, King Asa commanded Judah to SEEK THE LORD and to OBSERVE the law and the commandments. This means we need to PUT TO ACTIONS God's Words. 3rdly, King Asa said “Let us build these cities and make walls around them, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us, because we have sought the Lord our God; we have sought Him, and He has given us rest on every side.” So they built and prospered. How then, we need to protect ourselves by building walls and boundaries in our relationships and go to God always to take refuge, rest and abide in Him. John 15:4 says, "Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me." https://twitter.com/EstherOngHC
