A follower of Jesus
A Follower of Jesus
Are you born again Jn 3:3
Make prayer a daily habit Luke 6:12
Listen to Him Matt 17:5
Believe Him Jn 3:16
Obey Him Jn 8:12
Love Him Mark 12:30
Share Him Matthew 28:19
Serve Him Jn 12:26
Suffer for Him Phil. 1:29
All of these are the characteristics of a person who has become a follower of Jesus. IF you have given your heart to Jesus fully and completely, then you are a follower of Him. Is this required of us in this life? Yes, if you are a Christian in the most total sense of the word. The only time that we have to indeed be His follower is in this life while we are alive on Earth. Is this an easy task for us? Not in today’s climate of the “cancel culture” and other so-called “woke” attitudes, but during this time our world needs to see what a true follower of God lives their life like in this fallen world.
Being an active follower of Jesus and a Christian in our society today has even labeled us as “terrorists” from some people’s point of view. We truly are living in the end times as spoken of and foretold by our Lord, Jesus. How much longer will we live in this time we don’t know. It could be a few months or it could be a few years or even decades but I don’t think it will be the latter.
There are too many forces working toward a climax in our world. War, disease, economic collapse, or all of the above could be our downfall soon. Look up and be ready.
A true follower of Jesus needs to study God’s Word to be equipped as a representative of Him to answer the questions of those who do not know Jesus as their Savior. There are many today who have turned away from their faith out of fear. They are afraid of this “new” disease, COVID-19 and its mutated variants, because gathering in groups has caused spikes in the number of infected people. Many people have left the church and have not come back because of this. God can and will protect those who depend upon Him and seek His wisdom in this time of “crisis”.
Can a follower of Jesus be an effective tool for Him during this time? Yes, if we will seek His face and read and study His Word. Even a little bit of study of a few verses or a chapter each day is enough to give us better insight into the time that we live in today. I pray that anyone reading this who does not know Jesus as their Lord and Savior will seek Him today and then learn of Him from His Word so that you can take His message to others while there is still time.
His Words will not go away
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. Matthew 24:35 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/mat.24.35/1007
God inspired all Scripture
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 2 Timothy 3:16 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/2ti.3.16/62607
The Lord is Worthy…
The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. Psalm 19:7 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/psa.19.7/77644
By faith this is possible…
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:10 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/rom.10.10/49509
The God of peace will be with you
Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you. Philippians 4:9 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/php.4.9/60144
Jesus sends us into the world
Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. Matthew 10:16 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/mat.10.16.KJV
God has plans for you!
Jeremiah 29:11 gives us hope in this: 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Why do people deny that God exists? God knew you before the world was created and you can find this in the book of Jeremiah as well. My point? God knew each of us because He has always lived outside of time and He can see your birth and your death but He has plans for your life. All that you need to do is seek Him for your salvation and repent of your sinful life and follow Jesus.
Jesus came to give each of us on Earth hope for eternity with God in Heaven. I’ve heard that many people think that IF they get to Heaven, there will be nothing to do there. God is not going to give us eternity without something for us to do. He will have something for us to do, of this I am sure. It will not be boring!
I pray that everyone who reads this page and posts will pray for someone that you know. Whether that person is battling cancer or covid or if they need to know Jesus as their Savior. Each of us needs to pray for one another and we certainly need to pray for our country as well. Inflation is coming, food seems to be getting scarce because of supply lines not having enough drivers to deliver to stores. The next few years are going to be difficult and no amount of “printed money” will help us at home.
Keep looking up and make sure that He knows you so that you will be called when the Trumpet blows…you will be with those meeting their Savior in the air!!
God created you for His purpose
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:10 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/eph.2.10.KJV
Don’t turn away from Him or His calling on your life.
