Removing Your Heart from God

Scripture Isaiah 29:13 Therefore the Lord said:
“Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths
And honor Me with their lips,
But have removed their hearts far from Me,
And their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men,

Observation: I noticed with everything going on that all we do is speak of God, but don’t draw closer to Him. Our churches are closed and it doesn’t appear that any of them are trying to open in fear of what the government might do. We fear everything, but God and wonder why God doesn’t appear to be working on our behalf, but scripture tells us if we move closer to God, He will move closer to us. We need to make the first move.

Application: I need to do more then read my bible and pray in the morning I must show God my heart for Him. I also need to help others see God with their heart and not to fear this outside world, but to fear the One that created us and do what He commands.

Prayer: My Lord help me understand what You desire of me, that I will be obedient and do what You call me to do. I’m your servant and I love you with all of my heart.
