Remember this......there are no "second‐class" members of God’s family. God still wants to give us His best. And as we seek Him together, He will!
Jeremiah 31:34 NIV
No longer will they teach their neighbor, or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord ,’ because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest,” declares the Lord . “For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.”
Jeremiah 1:6-7
Then said I: "Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth." But the LORD said to me: "Do not say, 'I am a youth,' For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak."
NKJV
God choses us not because of what we want to do, but because of what He can do through us.
How many times have we thought this? "Lord, I know You want me to do this but...? "How can we say "Lord" and "but" in the same sentence? You can't, my friend. It's one or the other. Either He is Lord of your life or He isn't. If you are throwing out excuses not to do what God has asked you to do, maybe you need to consider just who is Lord of your life? Just think about that... Makes sense doesn't it?
Luke 1:37 NLT
Sometimes...because of our limited faith and limited understanding...we wrongly assume that God cannot or will not intervene in what's going on in our life. Such assumptions are simply wrong.
God’s Holy Word makes it clear........... absolutely nothing is impossible for the Lord. The Bible means what it says and we can be comforted to know that God can do miraculous things in our own life and in the lives of our loved ones. Our challenge...as a believer...is to take God at His word...and to expect the miraculous.
Amos 5:14-15
Seek good, not evil, that you may live. Then the Lord God Almighty will be with you. Hate evil, love good; maintain justice in the courts.
I think we can all agree that we are in danger of falling into the trap of keeping up an outward appearance of religion even though we sometimes abandoned our faith in God. Performing to get the approval of your boss or friends, hiding your failures from your wife or husband, pretending you are faithfully following God’s way when you are not.
God is not so concerned with how you appear on the surface; he sees through your false appearances even if others don’t. God cares about the attitude of your heart.
“Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.” - Winston Churchhill (1874-1965)
