Today, what I was reading about in my Bible really touched me and stayed with me. I just wanted to share with you all.
I was reading Matthew 7:21-24.
It says, “They may refer to me as ‘Lord’, but will not enter the Kingdom of God. The decisive issue is whether they obey my Father in Heaven. On Judgment day many will tell me, “Lord, Lord, we prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.” But I will reply, “I never knew you. Go, away; the things you did were unauthorized.”
Ouch.
Unauthorized?
Can you imagine God telling you this!??
Hum, I don’t know if it is just me, but that stung me. “I never knew you, Go away, the things you did were unauthorized.”
Can you imagine, how many of us out there are doing things unauthorized, proclaiming that it is actually of God. We gotta be careful now days. “Not all people who sound religious are really godly.” I know that I am a struggling Christian, who wants more of God and I am seeking to know Him. To find who He truly is, I have a burning desire to see His face, and to dwell in His presence for eternity. I want to please God.
I think it is time that people start to take their walk with God more seriously. It is the end of times, and God is still waiting for you with open arms.
You don’t want to get to the gates of Heaven and have God saying that he never knew you. Do you actually think that anyone will feel sorry for you?
No. At that time, it is too late. You’d had your time on earth to live right. I used to think, “Man this whole Christian thing is too complicated, I just don’t have time for all that praying and Bible reading.”
But I got to the point where, I can’t imagine life without Him. I believe that God is so real, life experience–HE is REAL.
How can you go on without speaking to Him?
Even for two minutes, speak to him..he’s waiting.
There are many Christians who are anointed!!! So anointed, but in reality they are just religious folks who are not living what they preach.Yes, God can use anyone, but that does not mean that that person will inherit the Kingdom of God…
Start reflecting about your life….
Are you feeding your spirit or your flesh?
Daily, I remind myself that I am not of this world, and I ask God to kill my flesh and whatever is pleasing it…and I feed my spirit with the Word of God. It is the only way. And every time I do not read my Bible and pray like I should, I find it difficult to go on with my day, I end up angry or doing, watching, reading things that hinder me.
So… make it impossible to go on without God.
Love this! Thanks
