Joshua 16-17, Psalms 74, Acts 24

What God said to me – As Paul went about his ministry, he did his best to maintain a good conscience before Me and before men and yet he ended up in prison for his faith.  When you live for Me and strive to maintain a good conscience before Me and please Me you will inevitably offend some people.  There is no way around it because most people refuse to acknowledge Me or live for Me.  What you must constantly guard against is the desire to be accepted by people so much that you compromise your faith.  It is easy to do because you see these people and live among them.  Although I live in you, you can’t physically see Me so its easy to give in to those you can see.  Also because you know that “I AM” a forgiving God you can be willing to compromise for expediency’s sake, thinking you can come to Me for forgiveness later.  That is never pleasing to Me and there are far reaching consequences for such sin.  You must determine now whom you will serve and remain steadfast in your walk if you want to hear Me say “well done”.
