When we practice His presence moment-by-moment, we will find ourselves …thinking God’s thoughts after Him. It’s what the Bible calls …having the mind of Christ. My friend, when we live with this attitude, and in this atmosphere, Christian Service takes on a whole new meaning for us.
Our submissive and suffering Savior fulfilled the will of the Father. While being beaten and spit on by the government, He uttered no threats, but kept entrusting Himself to Him who judges righteously. Aren’t you so glad that Christ went ahead and died for you?
You can’t change the past, but you can make lasting changes. Jesus said that life can be an abundant life. Maybe in some way you have gotten off track. Today, you can start over with God.
Doubting always makes us hesitate. Hesitating always hinders progress. This is true in our spiritual life with God and with others. Doubting is caused by a faulty faith.
Every believer has a personal story(testimony). Are you telling your story?
The future might seem to be uncertain to us, but remember God holds the future. God is Sovereign. But, we must recognize He is surely at the door. Let’s never give up making multiplying-disciple makers till He calls us home.
God is absolutely in control of everything. We call this God’s Sovereignty. When we doubt God’s sovereignty we immediately rely on self-sufficiency, which leaves us with a heavy heart or with a misplaced confidence.
Have you experienced the wooing of the Holy Spirit? A gentle nudging to surrender completely to God. Listen to this story of Nicodemus who found himself being drawn to Jesus, though he was a man who had need of nothing.
Be honest with yourself. Are you spiritually mature? In fact, you will learn in this message what God’s Word has to say about maturing in the faith.
Sometimes people say, “I know I have been forgiven by God, and as far as I know I have forgiven everyone, but something is still wrong.” My friend, the problem is self-directed. God has forgiven you, once and for all. Forgive yourself of what God has already forgiven you for.
