I the Lord search the heart, I try their reins, even to give every man according to his ways and according to the fruit of his doings.  Jeremiah 17:10

Among many of the works carried out by the Almighty we can point out His favor and care for all people, whether saved or lost. He thinks about us all the time, to give each one of us in accordance to how we walk in the path that He chose for us, which is in the Truth, as we conduct our lives correctly. The Creator is always protecting us from the evil one and leads us in a life of success.

This search that is done in our hearts shows God’s complete vigilance over all things, even the least in our inner beings, examining the spirit.  He does this to keep us from being trapped in the traps of the devil who tries to keep us under his control.  Now, if the Lord cares for all the little details that happen to us, what won’t He do if we live according to His will?

Is it possible to know how many thoughts we have each and every hour?  For us it is certainly impossible, but you can be sure God knows the exact number.  Whether few or many is not what matters, but they are examined one by one, by Who is not only the Auditor but also the One who desires our good.  We surely have to thank our Father for His greatness and goodness.  He helps us and lifts us up from our weaknesses. The Omnipotent is more than we can ever think or imagine.

There is not one thought or idea that the Omniscient does not know. (Psalm 139). God makes us understand that we should reject all the bad thoughts. We don’t need to be in fellowship with Heaven in order to distinguish good from evil. By recognizing something to be sinful, reject it immediately praying and rebuking, discarding and commanding that it leave immediately.  Those who confess their sins and abandons them receives mercy and are delivered of the enemy.

The Lord acts in our favor every instant, every moment and every second. When we walk in the path He shows us, we are blessed.  However if we sin, we must confess it in order to continue to be victorious. As we practice what is good we receive our reward immediately in us. After our prayer, when we feel the confidence filling our heart, this is a sure sign we were heard and attended.  This way, correcting our paths from bad to good becomes easy: we just have to do what is right and good. Those who believe in the Lord are blessed by his favor.

The reward comes as the fruit of your efforts and their results.  As you understand what is revealed, you withdraw and disconnect from error and evil activities and involvements and carry out the heavenly plan and purpose. As you obey and follow the Almighty’s instructions and the Holly Spirit in your heart, you will be lead to victories in all areas of your life. Don’t permit the devil to occupy any room or space in your day to day, so that you can be victorious in everything.

From now on, be alert to understand what God shows, says and does. As you believe, you become a winner. If you disdain His words you harm yourself, but if you obey the revelations and instructions of the Lord you will recover from any stumble or fall.  Be sure to do the good things God places in your hands.  By doing so you will enjoy life and life abundantly (John 10.10b)

In Christ, with Love,
