In this sermon The Importance of a Diligent Spirit, we learn God rewards our diligence if we seek him first. Seeking the kingdom of God is never half-hearted, it is to be with great diligence.  We are to diligent watch for one another – to see that no one falls back from and fails to secure God’s grace. There must not be any root of bitterness in our hearts. We are to diligently be making preparation for the coming of the Lord.
