Do you have a closet full of clothes and no deeds in heaven…yes or no?

Do you have a closet full of clothes and no deeds in heaven…yes or no?


But when the king came in to behold the guests, he saw there a man who had not on a wedding-garment: and he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding-garment? And he was speechless. Then the king said to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and cast him out into the outer darkness; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth...Matthew 22:11-13. For as many of you as were baptized into Christ did put on Christ...Galatians 3:27. For we must all be made manifest before the judgment-seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he hath done, whether it be good or bad...2 Corinthians 5:10. For many are called, but few chosen...Matthew 22:14.


Jesus Christ of Nazareth died and was raised from the dead…do you believe this fact…yes or no? Jesus died so you could morally never choose a wrong thing and always be supplied to do the right deed. You first must believe and be baptized in order to have you entrance or name written in heaven…it is how we get on the role and given the Holy Spirit to comfort us in our lives. (Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38-39) Then we must love God first and our neighbors second.


What is a good deed in heaven which we do down here?

Feeding a beggar…caring for or praying for a sick guy to be healed…supplying the needs of a widow or an orphan…helping the helpless? Do you have faith…then where is your deeds… To the pure all things are pure: but to them that are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. They profess that they know God; but by their works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate...Titus 1:15-16.


Prayer

Father please meet our souls deepest needs to be clean and pure from evil influences in our lives…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Money should be your servant not your God…

Money should be your servant not your God…

And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them that sold the doves; and He saith unto them, It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer: but ye make it a den of robbers. And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them...Matthew 21:12-14.


Why did Jesus overthrow the money changers and those that bought and sold in the temple?

They were running a business on forgiveness…some people did not have access to the animals needed for the required sacrifices. These men would sell the needed provisions…the animals needed for forgiveness. The people were being extorted (squeezed) for money and forgiveness.


Jesus said…No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money...Matthew 6:24. But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs...1 Timothy 6:9-10.


Prayer

Father we know forgiveness is now free in the love of Jesus your only Son who died on the cross and was raised from the dead…please help us see our errors of sin and grant us repentance so we may be saved and reconciled to You the Creator…please meet our soul’s deepest needs in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Blessed are the poor in spirit

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven...Matthew 5:3.

 

Blessed are you when you say I cannot do it without you God for yours is the kingdom of Heaven…Jesus is said to be humble and obedient to the Father’s will. He is our example to follow. He humbled Himself as a Human and died on the cross and was raised from the dead in order that we may choose no evil or wrong deed. Jesus died to free us and our decisions from this evil world. Do you depend on God…everyday all day long or just sometimes? Are we not all just beggars begging God for salvation and grace to sustain us one day at a time?

 

Jesus said…Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven...Matthew 18:3-4. The poor in spirit says daddy I cannot unless we do it together…or daddy can I…daddy will you…daddy look what they done to me. How can an adult depend on God like a child…Jesus said unless we are converted like a child we cannot enter the kingdom of God…we have to learn dependence on God as a child does his parents. Perhaps we should have we (me and God) attitude instead of a me can do it attitude. A what are Jesus and I going to do today attitude.

 

It is written God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble…do you want God’s favor in your life then we must learn to be humble and depend on God like a child does his parents and when we are fully converted like a child depending on God for everything in our lives…then the kingdom of heaven is ours to share with its King Jesus.

 

Can you live your life without Jesus…yes or no? Jesus said you will hold on to Him and despise the world or you will love Him and hate the world. Which do you do…hold on to Jesus and despise having to live in the world with its lusts that tempts us or do you love (obey) God and hate the world for having temptations?

 

Prayer

Father please help us fully be converted like a child and may we continue to depend on You for our very existence please meet our soul’s deepest needs so we may prosper and be in health as our soul prospers…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
