IF YOU’RE NOT DRAWING, OR GETTING CLOSER TO GOD. THEN YOU’RE DRAWING CLOSER TO ?  THE DEVIL . If you hate God ? Then you love the devil. If you’re not serving God, then you’re serving the devil.

Matthew 6:24 NKJV is clear ,when it says:
“No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.”

” For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.  Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.  I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back from your captivity; I will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you, says the Lord, and I will bring you to the place from which I cause you to be carried away captive. “( Jeremiah 29 : 11-14 NKJV).

” But it is good for me to draw near to God; I have put my trust in the Lord God, That I may declare all Your works.” (Psalms 73: 28 NKJV).

” Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. [8] Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.”( James 4: 7-8 NKJV).

” let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.” (Hebrews 10:22 NKJV).

” And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” So the people answered and said: “Far be it from us that we should forsake the Lord to serve other gods;  for the Lord our God is He who brought us and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, who did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way that we went and among all the people through whom we passed.

And the Lord drove out from before us all the people, including the Amorites who dwelt in the land. We also will serve the Lord, for He is our God.” But Joshua said to the people, “You cannot serve the Lord, for He is a holy God. He is a jealous God; He will not forgive your transgressions nor your sins.  If you forsake the Lord and serve foreign gods, then He will turn and do you harm and consume you, after He has done you good.” And the people said to Joshua, “No, but we will serve the Lord!”  ( Joshua 24: 15-21 NKJV).

WHAT’S YOUR CHOICE ? WILL YOU CHOOSE TO SERVE THE LORD, LIKE THOSE PEOPLE DID .

while it is said: “Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” ( Hebrews 3: 15 NKJV).

” Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.” [ Jude 1 : 24-25 NKJV].
