Bible Note: My ultimate goal in posting my statement about these 3 kinds of commands is to motivate ALL of us on the Forum toward true and genuine respect for God's Word. We must grow up and mature spiritually so as to see our priorities line up with those of our God. When we do that, then we will realize a more fruitful prayer life with God. We'll also realize our constant life-long need to get closer and closer to our God. We can never retire from studying His Word and receiving new instructions to maintain and perfect our Godly armor. We can also never retire from our constant need for prayer to Him as our Father. I pray that you keep on studying and praying on this subject. In my mind, it all boils down to who is actually sitting on the throne of your (our) heart. Who's truly in charge of your (our)life and soul? Like I heard just a few days ago, "If God is one's co-pilot, then that person should move over and let God become the Pilot." Blessings to you. Country Girl |
