Seek God's Approval


'And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice' 1Samuel 15:24.


Acceptance comes with great delight. Desiring acceptance has led many astray. That is why many folks today no longer live their lives they focus more on what people say and think of them. Today people post their nude pictures on their social media pages and profiles just to gain more followers and likes.


Seeking to always please men and women can be very costly. A lady after dressing and going out, and nobody tells her you are beautiful, comes back feeling depressed saying to herself 'maybe I am no longer beautiful, why do people hate me? She will forget that God has already approved of her in His Word when He said, 'You are fearfully and wonderfully made' (Psalm 134:14).

The knowledge of this truth, that God approves of you will give you much more confidence. He thinks more of you. He says, 'For I know the thoughts that I think towards you saith the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you an expected end (Jeremiah 29:11). Seeing that God approves of you, you should do what pleases Him.

VALUE FOR TIME

To everything, there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven (Ecclesiastes 3:1) Our entire life is measured by time. Your success and achievement are directly proportional to the time invested therein. To the one that is a medical doctor, for instance, it means that he has invested 5 or 6 years of his time in learning and acquiring knowledge to practice as a medical doctor. It, therefore, means that he traded time for the skill. We have a period here on earth to fulfill our purpose. It would be suicidal to attempt to waste it for we have but one life.  Helpful Topic: Motivational Quotes For Women.

He never had the opportunity to be with Jesus physically but he had more revelation of Him than the other Apostle that was with Jesus. He was never ashamed and went about preaching the Gospel of Christ. Each time he remembers his past, he will try to forget and move on. "... this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind..." (Philippians 3:13-14). God through Apostle Paul performs great miracles. God is very good at changing ugly situations to pleasant situations if you believe He can do
