Are we appeasing or pleasing God?
The other day I heard a Bible teacher say this during her service. Days later stills in my head and my mind. Echoing down into my heart.
So I did what I do when ever I want to know and learn the deep meaning of the word in question. I looked up. Surprise to see what I found.
Appease: pacify or placate (make less angry or hostile) by acceding ( agree to a demand) to their demands, relieve or satisfy.
I’m still in awe to see that at times we come to God to appease him with our rituals and teachings taught by man. We allow tradition to dictates our actions. Instead of following God we follow someone else ways.
“My people are destroyed by lack of knowledge” like sheep’s we follow what we want to hear and what make sense in the natural.
We allow self to dictates our move and steps.
God is willing to show His truth to be those that are willing to follow and obey.
“As for me and my house we would serve The Lord.” I’m not here to please man but God who knows the heart of man.
