Beyond all physical realms!
Beyond all authority of this world!
The Name Above every other Name!
All created creatures must obey.
But few yield their Wills to the glory of the Lord.
The destiny of souls will find only what it seeks.
And our hearts direct the focus and the path.
Where your heart there your treasure lies.
Seek always therefore with all your heart and soul, the glory of the Lord!
"Seek and you will find!"
“Seek ye the Lord, and be strengthened: seek his face evermore.”
Psalm 105:4. (DR)
“O Lord, God of Hosts, convert us. And shew Thy face, and we shall be saved.”
Psalm 79:20 (DR)
Wisdom 14:1-31
The beginning of worshipping idols: and the effects thereof.
The Folly of Idolatry Leads to Moral Disorders
Wisdom 14:19-31
“For he being willing to please him that employed him, laboured with all his art to make the resemblance in the best manner. And the multitude of men, carried away by the beauty of the work, took him now for a god, that little before was but honoured as a man. And this was the occasion of deceiving human life: for men serving either their affection, or their kings, gave the incommunicable name to stones and wood. And it was not enough for them to err about the knowledge of God, but whereas they lived in a great war of ignorance, they call so many and so great evils peace. For either they sacrifice their own children, or use hidden sacrifices, or keep watches full of madness, So that now they neither keep life, nor marriage undefiled, but one killeth another through envy, or grieveth him by adultery: And all things are mingled together, blood, murder, theft, and dissimulation, corruption and unfaithfulness, tumults and perjury, disquieting of the good, Forgetfulness of God, defiling of souls, changing of nature, disorder in marriage, and the irregularity of adultery and uncleanness. For the worship of abominable idols is the cause, and the beginning and end of all evil. For either they are mad when they are merry: or they prophesy lies, or they live unjustly, or easily forswear themselves. For whilst they trust in idols, which are without life, though they swear amiss, they look not to be hurt. But for both these things they shall be justly punished, because they have thought not well of God, giving heed to idols, and have sworn unjustly, in guile despising justice. For it is not the power of them, by whom they swear, but the just vengeance of sinners always punisheth the transgression of the unjust.” (Wisdom 14:19-31, DR)
