FOLLOW GOD'SLEADING
October 4, 2020
God wants you to let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. The Holy Spirit manifests Himself in and through your to others. Our ministry is to let His light shine through us daily, which will bring others to the Lord. This light is needed today more then ever for the time is getting short and people need saved. So pray that the labors are sent into the harvest of souls and that God will open up opportunities to touch others wherever you are. The Holy Spirit doesn't force, He draws. He doesn't pounce, annoy, impose, or trap, He leads. Whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel's will save it. For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in the adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in the glory His Father with the holy angels. Do you know it is a privileged to lose your life for Him and we do that when we make living our life for Him a priority over living life for ourselves.
LED TO CARE FOR YOUR BODY
September 28, 2020
If you are committing any sin the Holy Spirit will convict you. The Holy Spirit resides in you and your body is the temple of His Spirit. Jesus paid a price for you and you belong to Him. So you are not your own, you belong to God; and are the temple of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, glorify God in your body and in your spirit which are God's. You should always value your body as the place where the Holy Spirit dwells. If you harm your body in any way, you are not lead by the spirit, you are led by your flesh. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you break destructive habits and pick up beneficial ones. Ask Him to strengthen you to do the right thing when it comes to your body. We are to be different from the world in the way we act, think, and live. He wants us to observe the Sabbath as a holy day set apart for Him. Come in the sanctuary with reverence, praise and pray for God to move not only in you but the others that are seeking His will and ways for their life.
LED TO FOLLOW GOD
September 20, 2020
If ou are following Good, the Holy Spirit will always lead you to follow and you would want His Word to saturate you. As you are saturated, you will want to be closer and closer to Him. You are human as the Israelites were and yet they saw miracles that surpasses understanding and they still did not stay with the God of their Father's. They still walked in doubt. It is hard to believe after all God did for them in Egypt and on their way to the promise land that they would doubt God and rebelled against Him. If you stray from our Father, then you tend to forget the things He has done because you choose to not remember. Do you see what happened to the Israelites for doubting God, they changed the course of their lives and paid for those mistakes by wondering around the dessert for 40 years. We are a lot like the Israelites. We often want things that are not God's will for us and we become empty when we have too much and don't follow Him. We get busy and think we can rely on our memory of what we read or heard of God to bring us through. You won't make it, only through God can you move in the direction He wants you to.
LED TO DISCERN
September 13, 2020
If you want discernment in your life then you need the Holy Spirit. With discernment from God you will see the truth. To have this in your life you have to seek God on a regular basis. Not only read the Word which anyone can do, but you must desire for God to speak through His Word. You need to see through God's eyes not your human eyes. With what is going on in this world today, you need spiritual discernment more than ever before. You will need to be guided through the evil that is tying to take over this world. Not only will you desire guidance, but you will want security and safety. But to be guided by the Holy Spirit, you will have to ask for His guidance. The Holy Spirit will never barge in or force His way in, you have to desire Him. Having the right perspective on our situations is extremely important to the success and fulfillment of our lives. You should always seek God before you do anything, nothing is too small to ask Him about. If you have something going on in your life, go to the Lord and surrender it, for you are His child and He cares for all that is happening.
Insight To Remember
Pray for this world and the people in it that don't know Jesus. Not everyone has someone that is praying for them. Be that person. Also, keep your Pastor in prayer.
