“Do You Know Why You Follow Jesus?”

In Luke chapter 1 verses 4 & 5 Luke establishes the characters of Zechariah and Elizabeth as blameless “virtuous,” they were from an upright “outstanding” family, and well liked. Beloved, this is something as fellow Christians we would aim for because it’s pleasing to God and glorifies Him. But, despite the blameless and upright ways of Zechariah and Elizabeth, we see that they didn’t have a perfect and wonderful life.

Elizabeth was unfertile and they were growing old. Beloved, has there ever been a time in your life where you accomplished something and expected a certain outcome or blessing from God, but you didn’t get it? When I was younger and wasn’t walking by faith I have – and it was wrong!!! We don’t follow God and live an upright and blameless life to receive the blessings we think we deserve. We follow God and live an upright and blameless life to glorify our God. In 1 Corinthians 6:20 the Word says: “For you were bought with a price; therefore, glorify God in your body.”

Beloved, God has promised us certain things, and we can rest assured He’ll follow through.

Have a wonderful Tuesday Everyone. 😀

“Physical Things”

Praise the Lord Beloved. Happy Tuesday to you.

Beloved, God’s wants us to return to Him. There’ll be times when we simply forget a few things He has offered us in life and embrace a world of physical things. So, to stay on track we must regularly fill our lives with God. We must not fill our lives with the things of the world. That’s because it’s so easy for us to get taken in by the worldly pleasures of materialization and forget to honor God with our lives.

If you’re wavering in your faith, now’s the time for you to return to Him and find your way back into His loving arms. As you make the effort to do that, God will bring you to a place in which you can see more of Him around you.

Beloved, physical things are great, but they can keep us from our loving Savior if we let them.

Have a blessed Tuesday.

“It’s Time to Mature!!!”

1 Peter 2:2 (AMP)
Like newborn babies you should crave (thirst for, earnestly desire) the pure (unadulterated) spiritual milk, that by it you may be nurtured and grow unto [completed] salvation.

This morning I visited a daycare, and let me tell you, it takes a special person for that job. 😀

The room was filled with babies. Infants crying. Baby’s crawling and screaming for certain toys. Toddlers pushing and whining to get their way. Lord, let me tell you, my nerves was shot when I left there.

But after I left there the spirit of the Lord showed me something. Spiritual Babies. For the past several months once a week I’ve been meeting with 15 young men and women that attend Cleveland State University for lunch. All pretty much are spiritual babies. When we get together it’s just about the same way it was at that daycare. Everyone has a question, or wants attention, or want to share their experiences. Now, let me say right here, there’s nothing wrong with being a spiritual baby. All of us start out that way. When we’re first born into the kingdom of God, we’re much like physical newborns. We’re not very strong or well developed. We have slip ups while trying to learn how to operate in our new environment. That’s how we all have to begin. But God never meant for us to stay that way.

That’s why in 1 Peter 2:2 He says we should ” crave (thirst for, earnestly desire) the pure (unadulterated) spiritual milk, that by it you may be nurtured and grow….”

Beloved, God intends for us to be complete so we can become productive!!! He intends for us to feed on His Word, moving from the milk of the Word to the meat of the Word until we have totally matured into developed and established sons and daughters.

Beloved, it’s time to change your diet, it’s time to find your nourishment in His Word and enjoy the reward of completely maturing in Him!!!

Have a blessed Tuesday Everyone. 😀
