GOD’S ALWAYS WATCHING - Tuesday, March 3rd 2026.
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap (Galatians 6:7).When you study the Scriptures carefully, you’ll notice a striking pattern with certain individuals who lost their place with God and why it happened. Take Cain, the firstborn of Adam, as an example; he had hatred in his heart against his brother Abel.
The Bible tells us that Abel’s works were righteous, but Cain’s weren’t. Instead of correcting himself, Cain allowed hatred to consume him, and he murdered his brother. He lost his place because of the evil in his heart. Also, consider Esau; for just one meal, he sold his birthright.
The Bible describes Esau as profane because spiritual things meant nothing to him. He treated the birthright casually; to him, it was intangible, so he thought it could be tossed aside in exchange for food. But God looks at the heart; He saw that Esau was profane. He wasn’t profane because he sold his birthright; he sold his birthright because he was profane.
Later on, when it was time to receive the blessing, which was tied to the birthright, he lost it despite seeking it with tears (read Hebrews 12:16-17). The lesson here is very clear: you may deceive men, but you can’t deceive God. He weighs the motives of the heart.
Therefore, position your heart rightly because your blessing, your promotion, your place in God’s plan are tied to how you revere or hallow spiritual realities. Don’t trade your divine inheritance for worldly pursuits.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for granting me understanding through your Word. My heart is rightly positioned to value spiritual things and walk uprightly in reverence for you and your Word, conscious that my inheritance in Christ is precious and eternal. My heart is stayed on you and the eternal reward of my works of righteousness, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
