Willingness, Obedience and teachable heart all these matters to God.
Romans 12:9 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.
1 Samuel 16:6-13 New International Version (NIV) 6 When they arrived, Samuel saw Eliab and thought, “Surely the LORD’s anointed stands here before the LORD.” 7 But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.” 8 Then Jesse called Abinadab and had him pass in front of Samuel. But Samuel said, “The LORD has not chosen this one either.” 9 Jesse then had Shammah pass by, but Samuel said, “Nor has the LORD chosen this one.” 10 Jesse had seven of his sons pass before Samuel, but Samuel said to him, “The LORD has not chosen these.” 11 So he asked Jesse, “Are these all the sons you have?” “There is still the youngest,” Jesse answered. “He is tending the sheep.” Samuel said, “Send for him; we will not sit down until he arrives.” 12 So he sent for him and had him brought in. He was glowing with health and had a fine appearance and handsome features. Then the LORD said, “Rise and anoint him; this is the one.” 13 So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the LORD came powerfully upon David. Samuel then went to Ramah. -------------------------- God hates evil thoughts because it all rise in your fleshly desires have Jesus Christ in your heart and be renewed by the Holy Spirit through the baptism of water and the baptism of the Holy Spirit ….but, first we have to know that we are evil and we need cleansing through repentance and ask forgiveness of all our sins, God is real! and you have to know that, He is Omnipotent, and He knows everything….because, we don’t have to justify ourselves in the end but God Himself will be our Justice. Try to please the Lord, don’t do evil things like lying, stealing, idolatry, cheating in your taxes, stealing money just to give tithes in the church, give tithes the 10% of what you earned, never hassle other people by convicting them, you might not know what’s deep in their “HEART”, and their experience with GOD is oh!... HOW deep, HOW wide, and HOW awesome God has manifested in their lives through the miracles God has done to them!..
All GLORY AND HONOR GOES TO OUR BLESSED LORD JESUS!
