Service…


Life, as a Christian, should be a life of service. One in which you serve the church that you attend and you also serve Jesus every day. There will be some days that your service to Him may be impacted by your job or even family responsibilities, but in the end, your service to those around you should always reflect your Savior, Jesus Christ. If it doesn’t then you need to check with the Bible and pray about the genuineness of your faith in Him.

Being His servant in this life is not something that is negotiable. I mean, Jesus gave His life to save you from an eternity of pain. The least you could do in this life is to tell others what He did for you. God loved us enough that He gave His Son’s life to pay the penalty for your sins and mine and everyone else’s too.

God gave us His Word to learn from and to know how much we are loved by Him. Doesn’t it seem that we should at least tell one person about the sacrifice that Jesus gave for us to be adopted into God’s family?

God’s word…


God’s voice


Some may wonder how they can hear Him today. The way to know Him well enough to recognize His voice is by reading His Word regularly and daily. God speaks through His Word to us every day that we read it and that is the only way to recognize His voice…by knowing how He speaks and what He says to the prophets that He sent many years ago and even those He sends today. God speaks through us when we allow Him to and when we don’t get in the way.

God cares about us and His entire creation but most of all He cares about us. Why? Because He created each of us for a purpose and to find that purpose you have to know Him and listen to Him.

Pray for each other


The Church…


Money doesn’t satisfy


Mark 10:23 says: And Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God”.

Why did Jesus say this? Because those who depend on their money and riches have a god other than the One, true God. They place their “faith” in their own ability to keep the Commandments and they depend on their riches in this life rather than placing their faith in God. No, money isn’t evil but the dependence on it and faith in it is. The Bible says that “the love of money is the root of evil”, not money itself.

God gives us the ability to make money because He gives us the talents that we have but putting your faith in the money you’re making is the wrong way to acknowledge Him for it. Jesus said this because the rich young ruler would not give up his “things” in order to follow Him. In the world today there are many who are in this predicament right now but they won’t admit it. They believe that if they are going to church and giving to the church and being a “good Christian” they are okay. One day many will find that they aren’t doing as well as they thought.

Seek out Jesus as your Savior. Read the Bible because it is God’s Word and find His purpose for your life. Don’t turn away from Him when you feel His call on your heart. Believe in Jesus as your Savior so your eternity will be sure.

Give yourself to God


If…


I am God…


Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: Isaiah 46:9‭-‬10 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/isa.46.9-10.KJV

I will call them that are Mine
