How is the intent of the Holy Spirit working in us regarding this scripture? Does the fear of the Lord kick any rebellion out of us when we know what the way of the Lord is?

For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous, ( Romans 5:19).

Every man is right in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the hearts, Proverbs 21:2.

Are our hearts ready for the weighing?

Have we no fear of the final trial?

Is Jesus enthroned there in our hearts by faith?

If so, you need not fear the weighing.

If not, what will you do when the King sets up the final scale?

Oh My Heavenly Father,

May we be stunned by Your grace;

May we be amazed at Your love;

For in Him…..

The question will be determined how we proved our faith in purpose towards the Lord, when it is all said and done. Did we allow Him to be our plumbline, the standard in which we live by and for ?….. Did we allow His Word to be center stage? How hotly did we pursue Him? Did we act accordingly to the importance of the destiny the Lord had planned for us….. Did we apprehend Him as He apprehended us? Or…..
