Psalms 14:34
Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin condemns any people.
Many are things that are documented for our learning, but like a wind blowing away is this very knowledge we do not attend to.
During perilous times, every one would be willing to commune with God, attend to His word only in search of some relief and not necessarily God.
We had the Lock down, many people that I met had a garment of Humility toward God and proclaimed total trust toward Him, one can only wonder if it is the same as before or have old routines returned!! We can only hope the burning prayer alters do have a sustained flame.
Salvation is a nature but many handle it a life that is conditional to situations, thus kind cannot have a texture (consistency), many forget that God cannot be deceived.
Proverbs 28:14
Blessed is the one who always trembles before God, but whoever hardens their heart falls into trouble.
There are things needed for the body for it to thrive, exercise is that one thing, no matter how much one diets they still would do well with exercise. Exercise funnily helps the brain yet fatigues the body only for a greater refreshed body hours later, we find joy still in our non Olympic sporty routines while neglecting the Spirit.
John 4:24
God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.”
Many applaud the Lord rather than acknowledge Him in worship. We ideally should not clap to or for the Lord, but we are to lift up out Voice in adoration of Him, also lifting up holy hands in reverence with great expectation knowing that in His presence there’s fulness of Joy.
To appear Spiritual doesn’t mean we are spiritual, many times we don’t even know how to approach God. Many ministers will depend on gifting and forego intimacy with God, intimacy will however generate the presence of God. Also intimacy is not crying in prayer with great Lamentations and threats toward God, for instance….Father if it were You, what would You do, …me I’m going back to the world…as for me I’m tired… do You even care how I feel….blah blah blah…
When men have learnt to commune with God, nations, people are safe with God.
Sometimes to feed the sheep can be to uphold righteousness in having true communion with God so that lands, peoples, families can remain in divine health.
Prophetic Utterance:
I will Seek the LORD while he may be found;
I will call on him while he is near.
I forsake my ways and unrighteous thoughts.
I return to the LORD with a pure heart, and obtain mercy for I know our God, for he will freely pardon.
I am free.

1 Timothy 4:8-10
⁸For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come. ⁹This is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance. ¹⁰That is why we labor and strive, because we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all people, and especially of those who believe.
Isaiah 29:11-13 niv
¹¹For you this whole vision is nothing but words sealed in a scroll. And if you give the scroll to someone who can read, and say, “Read this, please,” they will answer, “I can’t; it is sealed.” ¹²Or if you give the scroll to someone who cannot read, and say, “Read this, please,” they will answer, “I don’t know how to read.” ¹³The Lord says: “These people come near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is based on merely human rules they have been taught.
