Beloved: grace, mercy and peace be yours without measure from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. I am delighted to welcome you to another week of the month of September 2026. My prayer is that God will daily equip you with everything that will make you a true worshipper in His sight, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
As we are shown in the bible, God is always looking at the hearts of people everywhere. And what He sees in their hearts is one of the things that will determine how He relates to them. For instance, after King Asa began to act in pride, God sent a prophet to say this to him:
“For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him…” (2 Chron 16:9NKJV)
Did you see that? God’s eyes are continually on the earth to find those whose hearts are loyal to Him, that is, those whose hearts will never trust in any other person or thing apart from Him. And why is He looking for such people? It is so that He may show Himself strong on their behalf. It is so that He may show Himself as capable of taking care of them, regardless of the challenges they may be facing in life.
Also, while Jesus was speaking with a Samaritan woman, He said this to her:
“Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.” (John 4:23NIV)
What kind of worshipers is God looking for? He is looking for those who will worship Him in spirit and truth. In other words, He is looking for those who will serve Him with all their hearts and not be insincere in any way in their dealings with Him. These are the people that He can trust with the revelation of Himself and of His power. These are the people that He can trust with the good works that He wants to do here in the world. That is because they are the only ones that will serve Him faithfully, regardless of the times and seasons of their lives, regardless of whether it is convenient for them to serve Him or not.
Some of us may be wondering why God is not revealing much of Himself to us or using us to do certain good works that He is doing through others, even though we attend church meetings regularly or give offerings and tithes regularly. What we don’t understand is that God is not looking for those who will attend church meetings or give offerings regularly, even though these things are important. Rather, He is looking for those who will serve Him wholeheartedly, regardless of the times or seasons of their lives. And if we are not such people, there are things God will never consider us for.
So, as we begin a new week, ask yourself, “If God is looking for someone that He can trust with the knowledge of Himself, of His will, of His provisions or of some good work to be done where I am, will He consider me? Do I have that kind of heart that will make Him consider me?” Remember that God does not play favourites. So, even though He loves all of us equally, it is those whose hearts are fully devoted to Him that He will be able to trust with anything important to Him. That is why we should continually pray that He will rid our lives of anything that may be preventing us from fully devoting our hearts to serving Him. Then He will begin to see us as people that He can consider for any kind of good work.
Have a lovely week.
