Many times in my walk with God, people around me will ask me to settle for something that's only good without first knowing what is God's will in my life.
So many times i ignore it and they choose to not understand why.
I believe to live and follow God in the fullness of His purpose in our lives meant that we have to live more than a 'good' life.
God cannot be mocked, you reap what you sow. If you sow compromise then you will live a compromised life. But if you choose to live by His standards then be sure to see His Kingdom be manifested richly in your life. He is more than able to supply all of your needs according to the riches of His glory :)!
Our lifestyle will determine whether we are seeking to just live in the 'good' standard of the world or are we choosing to follow His Kingdom living standards.
The Word of God says:
Romans 14:17-18 NKJV
for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.
Serving God doesn't just mean we do "good" things but by His grace we seek for His righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit to be manifested in our lives.
Whether it is a question about your partner in life or the life decisions to be made. I will seek for His Kingdom first which is about righteousness, joy and peace in the Holy Spirit.
I want to always walk with Him and live within His Kingdom. If it means waiting then waiting it shall be. For i will enjoy the process and the journey i have with our Beloved Father Who plans for us, believing that "every good and perfect gift comes from above."
The things which are seemingly good may not be the right one for us, no matter how promising it seems. Hence its important to "...acknowledge Him in all of our ways and He will direct our paths straight."
Not every 'good' person is the right companion for your life. It takes a lot more than just being 'good' or even anointed. God brings His people together for a specific purpose to glorify His Name.
The right person will bring His will to be manifested in a greater measure, together you will achieve more of His purpose in your life.
Being a good person does not automatically mean that it is the right person. It has more weight than that. Your calling, God's standard in your lives, His revelations, etc must coincide with each other in order for you to be able to walk hand in hand for a lifetime. You must be equally yoke in His calling and His desires to be able to walk in the same pace and thus achieving more together by walking with the same energy, vision and passion in His service :)!
To do good is not enough, we need to rely on Holy Spirit to work through us and overflow out of us to bring His Kingdom on Earth as it is in Heaven. We need His wisdom and to always allow His dreams to be manifested in our lives ♥.
"TO GOD BE THE GLORY FOR EVER AND EVER AMEN"
-PHIL 4:20-
