150 You Can Be Praised by God Only After Escaping From the Influence of Darkness
If you want to be praised by God, you must first escape from Satan’s influence of darkness, open your heart to God, and turn it to God completely. Are the things that you are now doing praised by God? Have you turned your heart to God? Have the things that you have done been what God has required of you? Do they fit with the truth? You must examine yourself at all times, concentrate on eating and drinking God’s words, lay out your heart before Him, love Him with sincerity, love Him with sincerity, and devotedly expend yourself for God. Such men will surely receive God’s praise.
