Do You KNOW Him?

Oct15

Will you steal, murder, and commit adultery and swear falsely, and offer sacrifices to Baal and walk after other gods that you have not known, then come and stand before Me in this house, which is called by My name, and say, ‘We are delivered!’—that you may do all these abominations? Has this house, which is called by My name, become a den of robbers in your sight? Behold, I, even I, have seen it,” declares the Lord.
Jeremiah 7:9-11 NASB1995

Do they spite Me?” declares the Lord. “Is it not themselves they spite, to their own shame?”

But this is what I commanded them, saying, ‘Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you will be My people; and you will walk in all the way which I command you, that it may be well with you.’

What does the church look like today? What does our walk with God look like?

Who am I?

Oct23

Therefore if God gave to them the same gift as He gave to us also after believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could stand in God’s way?”
Acts‬ ‭11:17‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/act.11.17.NASB1995

‭‭This passage is where Peter went to Jerusalem and was sharing testimony with the circumcised Jewish believers about the conversion of Gentiles, of their salvation. When he received opposition his response was, “who was I that I could stand in God’s way?”

I believe we have all been there. That is not the way we do things. That is not how Christians are supposed to act, talk, serve, etc. God and His word is always, or should be, the final word.

There is no wisdom and no understanding And no counsel against the Lord.
Proverbs‬ ‭21:30‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/pro.21.30.NASB1995

Not one person on the face of this earth is perfect or knows it all. We would be foolish to think this. We must be careful that we do not think or act as if we alone have any authority.
‭‭
Thus says the Lord, “Let not a wise man boast of his wisdom, and let not the mighty man boast of his might, let not a rich man boast of his riches;
Jeremiah‬ ‭9:23‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jer.9.23.NASB1995

We must seek the counsel of God. Through His Word. Through prayer. Alone and corporately. 
‭‭
Then we must trust God and Him alone.

but if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them; or else you may even be found fighting against God.”
Acts‬ ‭5:39‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/act.5.39.NASB1995

🌹Who am I? I do not want to be in that position. Do you?

Practice The Walk

Apr22

I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul will make its boast in the Lord; The humble will hear it and rejoice. O magnify the Lord with me, And let us exalt His name together. — Psalm 34:1-3

How’s your walk with Jesus? Do you bless Him, thank Him in everything and praise Him at all times? This is God’s will for us in Christ Jesus. We are not perfect but that is not an excuse for not continually trying to do His will. When my heart is focused on blessing, thanking and praising God, I find my heart boasts of Him. It comes easily.

Practicing this kind of walk with the Lord opens doors of communication with those Jesus is calling to Him. He opens the eyes of the lost who humbly approach the throne seeking His salvation. Our walk with Jesus is so important to living an effective life of soul winning. When souls are introduced to Jesus He is magnified and we rejoice and exalt His name together.

Continually seeking Him,

Sharon

 

in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. — 1 Thessalonians 5:18
