God stands behind determined people

RESUMEN: God is pleased with those who are determined and committed to Him, but is displeased with those who are indecisive and fluctuating. The Church in Laodicea had many material resources but was spiritually decrepit, lacking commitment and consecration. God desires a red-hot spirituality, thirsty for His power and presence, and requires a dedicated life and total commitment. The gifts of the Spirit and the power of God require an environment and attitude of decision and consecration to be fully manifested. Those who remove doubts and live with eyes focused on eternity will experience God's power and effectiveness. God is waiting for a determined and consecrated people to show His power for and through them.

Determined people always move the heart of God. On the other hand, the indecisive and fluctuating causes him displeasure. The apostle James says, “A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways. Let no one do so think that he will receive anything from the Lord ”(James 1: 7 and 8).

Apparently, the Church believers in Laodicea had many material resources — financially strong congregations, and with influential members. But spiritually they were decrepit. There was much worldliness in the Body, and a lack of decisiveness and clarity regarding the call to holiness and consecration to the Lord.
