1Sa 12:20-21, Then Samuel said to the people, “DO NOT FEAR. YOU HAVE DONE ALL THIS WICKEDNESS; YET DO NOT TURN ASIDE FROM FOLLOWING THE LORD, BUT SERVE THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART. AND DO NOT TURN ASIDE; FOR THEN YOU WOULD GO AFTER EMPTY THINGS WHICH CANNOT PROFIT OR DELIVER, FOR THEY ARE NOTHING.
Ecc 7:20, For there is not a just man on earth who does good And does not sin.
It’s true, we all have fallen short of the glory of GOD yet, WE MUST CONTINUE FOLLOWING THE LORD AND NOT OUR HEARTS! GOING AFTER ANYTHING ELSE IS LIKE SEEKING A FALSE IDOL WHICH CANNOT DO ANYTHING!
Isa 46:7, They bear it on the shoulder, they carry it And set it in its place, and it stands; From its place it shall not move. Though one cries out to it, YET IT CANNOT ANSWER NOR SAVE HIM OUT OF HIS TROUBLE.
1Sa 12:22, FOR THE LORD WILL NOT FORSAKE HIS PEOPLE, FOR HIS GREAT NAME’S SAKE, BECAUSE IT HAS PLEASED THE LORD TO MAKE YOU HIS PEOPLE.
IN TIMES OF TROUBLE AND IN DROUGHT WE MAY DOUBT, BE ANXIOUS AND FEAR! YET HE IS FAITHFUL AND WILL NOT FORSAKE HIS PEOPLE! HE IS ALWAYS NEAR AND HE HEARS OUR PRAYERS! DO NOT BE RULED BY EMOTION, BUT BY FAITH IN THE ONLY TRUE AND LIVING GOD! HE SEE’S YOU!
Psa 94:14, For the LORD will not cast off His people, Nor will He forsake His inheritance.
