Darkness has no care for light. Diligence helps open a soul’s abilities. But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder ... ~ Hebrews 11:6 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. ~ Romans 10:17 Faith is established by the Word of God
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for; the evidence of things not seen. ~ Hebrews 11:1 Without faith the hopeless crumble
For we walk by faith, not by sight. ~ 2nd Corinthians 5:7 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. ~ Romans 10:10 "Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me." ~ John 14:1 ... "I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst." ~ John 6:35 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. ~ 2nd Timothy 2:15 I love those who love me, And those who seek me diligently will find me. ~ Proverbs 8:17 Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life. ~ Proverbs 4:23 You have commanded us To keep Your precepts diligently. ~ Psalms 119:4 "Only take heed to yourself, and diligently keep yourself, lest you forget the things your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart ..." ~ Deuteronomy 4:9 Clear instructions for the faithful
The plans of the diligent lead surely to plenty, But those of everyone who is hasty, surely to poverty. ~ Proverbs 21:5 Be diligent to know the state of your flocks, And attend to your herds; ~ Proverbs 27:23 ... to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another; not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; ... ~ Romans 12:10-12 ... each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, ... ~ Hebrews 6:11-12 ... giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, ... ~ 2nd Peter 1:5-7 ... be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble; ... ~ 2nd Peter 1:10-11 ... be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless; ~ 2nd Peter 3:14 ... since you know this beforehand, beware lest you also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the error of the wicked, but grow ... ~ 2nd Peter 3:17-18 Many if not most chose to ignore the word of God in pursuit of worldly pleasures. Societies more often are built on the lusts of heart rather than the reasoning’s of God. God extends patience to all who live in the confines of this egg He calls flesh. As we hatch in life it is a choice and a decision to do it with purpose, or one weakly succumbs to the random haphazard encounters, allowing those occurrences to control one’s life. Either one diligently masters control of heart or the free reign of evils face engulfs those righteous and just freedoms God offers. To angrily blame God for human failings is to deny God. He calls us to soberly strengthen ourselves in diligent service with our lives, which is our reasonable service. Love of God and country rises higher than self, and if not, oblivion and tortures unknown unfold. In pursuit of God one finds true life
Diligence is a soul’s heart of peace. Darkness sinks into what it cannot find |
