Will you seek first the Kingdom of God…yes or no…

Will you seek first the Kingdom of God…yes or no…

And the Lord's servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt (willing and able) to teach, forbearing, in meekness (obedience) correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure (Perhaps) God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth, and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him (the devil) unto his (the devil’s) will...2 Timothy 2:24-26. For the mystery of lawlessness does already work: only there is one that restrains now, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall be revealed the lawless one, whom the Lord Jesus shall slay with the breath of his mouth, and bring to nought by the manifestation of his coming; even he, whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceit of unrighteousness for them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God sends them a working of error, that they should believe a lie: that they all might be judged who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness...2 Thessalonians 2:7-12. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in His (Jesus) body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest (made known) unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences...2 Corinthians 5:10-11.


Will you seek first the Kingdom of God…yes or no…

Jesus is the Truth…the source of all truth and we can have a love of the truth so we can practice the truth. We must cultivate a love of the truth so we do not love a lie or are comforted by lies but are able to walk in Spirit and Truth. When we learn how to walk in truth and turn from our ways to Jesus’ ways…we have the knowledge needed to help others walk in truth. It is like a beggar finding the source of Bread then sharing who gave the bread to him. Jesus is the living Bread and who are we not to share the source of all truth. How can a man decide based on a lie because if you do so then you do not know all the facts. I would rather deal in the truth and no lies because Jesus said the truth sets us free. How can you reconcile with God if you use a lie to reconcile with man? You have not reconciled with that man but have lied to him and need to repent. Will you renounce all satan’s kingdom and power and ask Jesus for a love of the truth and to have nothing to do with a lie…yes or no…it is a yes from me. Will you seek first the Kingdom of God…yes or no…? Jesus said whoever believes and is baptized will be saved and whoever choose to not believe Jesus died and was raised from the dead and be baptized will be damned. Have you been baptized...will you be baptized...yes or no?


Prayer

Creator we renounce satan and anything from him as a source we ask that Jesus be our source and supply for we want to love the Truth more and more and refuse to walk in lies please grant us repentance where needed and heal us from the evil one…please show us mercy and not severe judgement where we errored…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

God doesn't want shares of your life…He wants the controlling interest! Hear some good news about Jesus...


Hear the good news of Jesus of Nazareth…Jesus Christ died on the cross and was raised from the dead so you could find forgiveness from God by turning to God in full surrender to the obedience of the truth. We must change our ways and turn and follow God ways. Jesus will reveal the truth to you and all you have to do is practice the truth. Listen to what Jesus said…


All things have been delivered unto Me of my Father: and no one knows the Son, save the Father; neither does any know the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son wills to reveal Him. Come unto me, all you that labor and are heavy laden (burdens), and I will give you rest. Take my yoke (teaching of the truth from God) upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek (obedient) and lowly (humble) in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke (truth) is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:27-30. Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way (to God), and the Truth, and the Life no one cometh unto the Father, but by Me...John 14:6. If you love me, you will keep my commandments...John 14:15.


Jesus said if you take His teachings on you then you will find rest for your souls or freedom from evil. How can your soul rest if you are fighting the devil? Jesus will protect you as you learn and practice the truth giving you rest for your soul. Does this sound like good news…yes or no? Jesus is the source of all truth and the way we come to God being reconciled through His teaching and sacrifice through His death and resurrection from the dead. Jesus gives eternal life to those who keep His commandments and the greatest commandment is to love God with all of your heart, mind, soul, spirit, and strength and the second is to love your neighbor as yourself (Mark 12:29-31). Will you read or re-read the New Testament of Christ to learn about Jesus and find rest for your soul…yes or no?


Prayer

Father please give us rest for our souls and a light and easy yoke as we learn about Jesus Your only Son and meet our soul’s deepest needs for repentance and mercy…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

PUSH pray until something happens…

PUSH pray until something happens…

And he spoke a parable unto them to the end that they ought always to pray, and not to faint; saying, There was in a city a judge, who feared not God, and regarded not man: and there was a widow in that city; and she came oft unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; yet because this widow troubles me, I will avenge her, lest she wear me out by her continual coming.


And the Lord said, Hear what the unrighteous judge saith. And shall not God avenge His elect, that cry to Him day and night, and yet He is longsuffering over them? I say unto you, that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?...Luke 18:1-8.



How many times do you pray about a personal concern…ever heard the phrase PUSH pray until something happens? Our Lord Jesus Christ only prayed three times for another way for all sinners to have a way of salvation. Paul when being buffeted by satan prayed three times till and answer came from Jesus. We are told to pray without ceasing and to give thanks for everything we go through. Do we pester God by praying the same thing when we could be praying for others or do we pray until we get an answer? Jesus told this parable so we would pray and not faint when we have a need. In the widow’s case it was injustice. What is your soul’s deepest needs…more important where does God need to grant us repentance so we can be free from evil and live in the truth without temptation or hardship?


Prayer

Father please meet our soul, spirit, and body’s deepest needs and heal us from our sin granting us repentance to overcome…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
