Gods Will or Our Will?

10 Replies

 

Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Matthew 6:10

Many times in life we try to make our own path, make our own destiny, and then fail and wonder why? The first question is Was It Gods Will or your own will? See God has given us the gift of “Free Will” however when we choose this path, we are on our own. (Proverbs 16:9)

Some examples are when Adam and Eve decided to follow their own will and eat from the forbidden Tree, the result was sin and death. (Genesis 3) But when Jesus followed Gods Will and sacrificed himself on the cross, the result was grace and eternal life (Luke 22:42)

So what is Gods Will for your life? To truly know Gods plan for our life we need to connect with him through prayer and scripture. Remember all things work together for good for them that Love God (Romans 8:28)

We must learn to “draw near to God” (James 4) when we submit ourselves to God, Satan flees from us and then God can work his purpose in our lives. But when we follow our own will, it usually leads to our own destruction, but If we acknowledge God he will make our paths straight (Proverbs 3:6)

So are you doing Gods Will or your own Will? We must remember Gods knows all our needs and will provide them (Matthew 6:8) if we put our trust in Jesus Name Amen

Eye For Eye?

“You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. Matthew 5:38-39

With all the violence and hatred in the world today, how do we react? The normal human reaction is for us want an “Eye for Eye” but with this approach when does it end? Jesus taught us to “Turn the other cheek”, instead of answering violence with violence we should try to resist .

Obviously this is not easy and not very popular. Its natural for us to want to avenge our enemies, but the questions is when will it stop? So how as Christians can we apply these teachings Jesus wants us to follow?

Remember Jesus said we must first deny ourselves (Matthew 16:24) before we become a disciple, isn’t violence mostly about human ego and greed? If we truly are a Christian, we must not only Deny Ourselves but also Love our Enemies (Matthew 5:44).

Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Matthew 10:28

One of the most powerful scriptures in the entire Bible is this one, Satan can threaten you with violence or even death, however we should not fear them. See God gives life and can take it away, he is the only one. Even if your physical body is dead, your soul will live as long as God says it will.

This is why Fear of The Lord is the beginning of wisdom and understanding, because our Heavenly Father, creator of the Heavens and Earth is truly in control. So resist violence, turn the other cheek in Jesus Name Amen

You Can Be Saved

You Can Be Saved

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13

There are many people who are living in defeat because they don’t believe  they can be saved, or are not worthy to be saved. But you need to know Jesus came to save everyone including You!

Jesus said in (Luke 5:32) He did not come for the righteous but for the sinners, and since we are all sinners (Romans 3:23), we all need Jesus!  It doesn’t matter your age, race, gender, Jesus came to save everyone, he is the light of the Gentiles (Isaiah 42:6)

What is a Gentile?  Gentile is anyone who is not Jewish, this is what the new covenant is all about.  Because of God’s grace through Jesus Christ, we can all be children of God, Jews and Gentiles (Galatians 3:28). Also tells us in (Romans 10:12), that God is the God of everyone, Jews and Gentiles

Many know the scripture John 3:16 but if you continue reading verses 17 and 18 it tells you Jesus didn’t come to condemn the world and whoever believes in Jesus  is not condemned (John 3:17-18)

So You can be saved, If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9) Saved from the enemy of this world including death. Accept Jesus into your heart today and become a new Creature (2 Corinthians 5:17) Amen!

Is There Evidence for God?

Is there Evidence for God?

For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities–his eternal power and divine nature–have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse. Romans 1:20

One of the common questions, is there evidence for God? God actually addresses this issue in The Bible, he tells us there is evidence of his existence all around us, the Earth, the heavens, animals, ect. He even goes as far as to tell us we are without excuse to not be believe in him. So the question would be if you don’t believe in God, then where did you and everything else come from?

Jesus is the image of the invisible God (Colossians 1:15), if we really know about God, we should look no further than Jesus. He is God in the Flesh ( John 1:14) and has been here since the beginning of creation ( Revelation 1:8). So if we really want to know about Gods existence, we should learn from Jesus Christ.

And the final piece of evidence is You!  God made you in his image (Genesis 1:26) So if you truly want to know what God looks like, look in the mirror. We were made for a special purpose to reflect Gods glory and serve him

So is there evidence for God ? Absolutely , the evidence is you  and everything that is around you. Including our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who is the living God in the flesh. As God said there is so much evidence we are without excuse!

You, however, know all about my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance, persecutions, sufferings–what kinds of things happened to me in Antioch, Iconium and Lystra, the persecutions I endured. Yet the Lord rescued me from all of them. 2 Timothy 3:10-11

Paul is a great example of a servant of Christ, he suffered many beatings, thrown in jail many times, they even tried to stone him to death, but God kept delivering Paul. No weapon formed against him would prosper; he truly walked the walk as he talked the talk.

In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 2 Timothy 3:12-13

Jesus told us we would be hated because of him, think about it Satan is going to go after the Christians who truly threaten his Kingdom. The more you Glorify God the more Satan is going to attack you. So you can take comfort and joy knowing you are doing the Will of God enough to make Hell hate you. While Heaven is glorifying your name and God will deliver you.

But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 2 Timothy 3:14-15

Why is it important to study the Word of God everyday? Because God has giving us this gift of Wisdom that will make us wise beyond our years. Only this wisdom can be obtained from The Bible, as we don’t read the Bible, the Bible reads us.  If you say God never speaks to you, it’s probably because you never read the Bible.

 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.  2 Timothy 3:16-17

The Bible is a Gift from God giving to us by the Holy Spirit. God used man to write the words but the words were sent from God. The Word of God is like a double-edged sword that cuts to the heart, because its truth. People of Evil flee from it while the Holy thirst for more.

Embrace the Word of God, learn and live it. It breathes life into the dead and gives justice to weak. See what God has to say to you today in Jesus Name Amen
