God Sees ALL - You can't fool God!

Good Day everyone! As I have been interacting with “Christians” for the majority of my life, it NEVER cease to amaze me how we can operate in such foolishness. You know how we do it we get in church or some religious sector and put on the biggest show knowing that’s not who we are. And we think we have people convinced or for a better word “FOOLED”. But guess what, anytime and anywhere, our loving Father sees us. He notices everything that happens in our lives, and he watches over us with complete care in all circumstances. God can’t be fooled by anyone. He knows the truth about everyone’s motives, lies, inappropriate behavior/actions and decisions.

Trying to keep secrets from God is foolish. I’m sure you have heard the old saying: “You can fool all of the people some of the time, you can fool some of the people all of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time” (Or as Spanky from the Little Rascal’s would say, “But you can’t fool mom any of the time!”) But, for sure we can correctly state: “You can never fool God!”

Galatians 6:7-9 says:
7 If you think you can fool God, you are only fooling yourselves. You will harvest what you plant. 8 If you live to satisfy your sinful self, the harvest you will get from that will be eternal death. But if you live to please the Spirit, your harvest from the Spirit will be eternal life. 9 We must not get tired of doing good. We will receive our harvest of eternal life at the right time. We must not give up.

For example, there were two preachers that had gone to a preacher conference and they had not seen each other for several years. One day when they broke for lunch, they sat down to catch up on old times. The conversation eventually turned to them talking about their churches where they preached, as one asked the other: “Johnie, how many people in your church would you say are serving?” The preacher responded: “About 30% of our members are really involved in the work. What about where you Chris? Chris responded: “I would say about 100% of our members are serving.” A bit taken back by Chris’s response; Johnie blurted out “100%”? That is unheard of. You have 100% of your members serving the Lord? That is wonderful my brother!” Chris quickly corrected him: “Serving the Lord? Oh no Johnie, I have 100% serving, but only about 50% are serving the Lord. The other 50% are serving the world.”

With that being said, what is the point? We have too many Christians who play church! They put on a good show on Sunday, but when it comes time to give of their means, to visit the sick and shut-ins, or to knock on doors to invite people to the church, they are nowhere to be found. They are good at putting on a show for others, so that they appear to be spiritual, in good standing as a Christian. They try to paint a better image of themselves than what they really are.

There too many Christians whose religion is nothing but a façade, and thus artificial. Their faith is so shallow and superficial that it does not really mean anything to them. Their religion consists of putting on their Sunday suit/dress and going to church, where they practice their “faith.” When they come home, they take off their Sunday suit/ dress and their “religion” with it, and then they live like the devil the rest of the week.

Many are deceived and believe they can fool or mock God and not reap the consequences. When the Word of God warns us to “be not deceived” we better listen. It is the deluded person who thinks he can fool God. When the Lord comes, He “will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels (motives) of the hearts” (1 Cor.4: 5). On that day Paul said: “God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel” (Rom.2: 16 I, the Lord, search the heart, I test the mind, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings” (Jer.17: 9-10).

But here is the good part of this equation. The wicked can be “washed, sanctified, and justified in the name of the Lord Jesus.” Those who sow to the flesh (live according to the flesh) will die, (suffer the consequences), but, one can turn and begin to “put to death the deeds of the body” and live, (reap everlasting life)! Rom.8: 13).
So brothers and sisters, you cannot fool or mock God, neither in this life nor in eternity. He’s not fooled by our clever deceptions. We will reap what we sow! So, remember that God sees ALL – You can’t fool God!

Genuinely Loving you ALL!

Good Day Facebook Family and Friends!

Can I ask you a question?

Who do you place your faith in?

We MUST place our faith and trust in the only Person who can save us, and that person is none other than God Himself. “Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth” (Psalm 124:8). When we place our faith in God, trust Him with all of our heart, and realize He is our help, we will always be a victor and not a victim.

It is time for us to be VICTORIOUS in Jesus Christ! Man WILL fail you, but God won't, man will disappoint you, but God won't, Man will lie to you, but God won't........

Remember:
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name
On Christ, the solid rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand

So today, put ALL your faith and trust in the ALMIGHTY GOD!

Genuinely Loving you ALL!
