" IGNORANCE / IGNORING "

Well here we are again, another week has come and gone. It's my prayer that all is well in your camp. This week we will be looking into " IGNORANCE / IGNORING." It's also my prayer that we will never be ignorant, especially about the things of God.

" IGNORANT ":
1- Lacking Knowledge
2- Resulting from or showing lack of knowledge or intelligence
3- Unaware,uninformed.

There is no standard or criterion higher than God Himself by which to judge. God Himself is the standard. Our only option is to submit to His authority and rest in His care. Don't wait until just the right time before turning to God. Do it now while you still have the chance. If you continually ignore God's voice, eventually you will be unable to hear it all. God does not offer special protection to people who ignore Him. We must realize the importance of obeying God from the heart and not merely out of habit.

Now, if we want God's help when we undertake large tasks, we must make staying close to Him our top priority. Listen, before making a commitment I'm of the mind set to seek God's advice first. Now, don't ask God for advice if you intend to ignore it. Real love for the Father is shown not by merely asking for direction, but by following that direction once it is given.

LAST POINT: Malachi was the last of the Old Testament Prophets of Judah. Malachi was angry at the priests because, though they were to be God's messengers, they did not know God's will. And this lack of knowledge caused them to lead God's people astray. Their ignorance was willful and inexcusable. Pastors and leaders of God's people must know God's Word - what it says, what it means, and how it applies to daily life. How much time do you spend in God's Word? It's vital that you "Armor Up" early and daily.

Until next Time...
