Acts 5:11. “And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.”
GREAT FEAR. What has happened here? These called out ones are filled with fear? There is a great work that is being done, And yet fear has come on each and every one. There are lessons to be learned we have overlooked – Some things we can’t know – so steps the Spirit took To bring plainly to the minds of all His saints – “Do not pretend to God – He knows each step you take.” To say one thing and have actually done another – To God it is out in the open – nothing is undercover.
So I learn from Thee Holy Spirit, to not tempt God – For I will lose all in an instant – what could have been good.
“Holy God, may I never think I can get away with some private plan or scheme. May I always be aware that my life is lived before Thee, and men may never know my motives for doing something. I am acutely cognizant of the fact my thoughts and intents are not hidden from Thee. I bow my heart in reverence, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
