“His Voice Today”

January 28

🔸️ You must attain Godly goodness! 🔸

God created us to be characteristic and capable of knowing Himself independently. But there is a danger in this freedom of choice that we can use this freedom to please ourselves and not to obey the laws of God! In spite of this, God was ready to face this tragedy. Because God wants the children who independently know Himself!!

The first man and woman whom God created were called Adam and Eve. They were “immaculate” when they were created. But to be holy, they must know it for themselves. They need to be tested in order to occur this choice. Only then, they could “reject evil” and come to know God! That was why God allowed Satan to come to them and to test them! We read this event in the Bible in Genesis chapters 2 and 3.

There are many differences between spotless and purity. What we see in a child is spotless. If you want to know how Adam looked like, when he was created, just have a look at a child…. you will find no good or evil in the child and will only observe it’s ignorance. But that child is neither holy nor perfect! In order to attain perfection, the child must grow up and choose the ‘knowing’ in his life …. through that, denying evil and grow after knowing God.

Prayer:
Heavenly Father! Divine goodness is our incessant wish! Give us strength to do your goodness and to independently deny evil. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
