As we mature in our walk with God, we are encouraged or instructed to read His Word more, fast, pray longer, or attend church events more often. Some people feel like if they’re not doing this God is upset with them and they may miss a blessing. Others look at this task list and think it’s too difficult to complete on a daily basis, so they never try.

God won’t be displeased or upset with the believer for anything. God will NEVER be mad at the believer. God’s wrath was emptied out on Jesus at the cross. These works don’t make us more righteous. These works only position us to receive more revelation knowledge from God and personal knowledge of God.

As we develop into mature believers, take it one day at a time building as you grow. Remember God loves us and He is not and never will be upset with our performance.

Romans 9:31 but the people of Israel, who pursued the law as the way of righteousness, have not attained their goal.
