Martin Luther King Jr.: The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
As I was searching through the Word, learning more and more about Jesus, I began to understand concepts and precepts that were difficult for me to understand previously. There was a time in my life I would read the Word and it made absolutely no sense. I began to embrace the relationship with Jesus and hidden things were no longer covered up.
It has always been apart of me, if I understand something, I want to teach it. If you can’t understand with me explaining the first two ways, I’ll find four more ways to explain until you understand. I say this because in The Word of God I have began to see small patterns within the events that took place. To truly be able to have life broken down and defined, it became plain to me the difference between walking by sight and faith,
One of the biggest reasons we as Christians fail to see Jesus in our everyday life is our inability to define our lives based on the Word of God. Jesus is the Word of God. It’s hard to see how much we need Jesus in our lives if we are not willing to regard and believe what he said as truth. Jesus said the greatest command is to love God with all your heart soul and strength and the second is just as great which is to love one another the way you love yourself.
The more we understand the parameters with which we have been given to operate, we can gain a greater sense of our how and why in life. All of a sudden God doesn’t seem as far as you thought and your journey gets way more interesting.
A greater awareness of how much we truly need Jesus. Jesus said he is alpha and omega. In English that means he is A – Z and everything in between. Think about the English alphabet of 26 letters. We can not think outside of those 26 letters. How many libraries worth of information have been constructed of these letters? At the heart of every book, paper, thesis, idea, all of it is constructed with a combination of just 26 letters. Jesus is saying every aspect of creation, our nations, our lives, our families, our situations, are constructed with Jesus as the foundation. Everything points back to Jesus Christ. If we understand that Jesus is the foundation then it should become natural to seek him in everything.
I really don’t have favorite however the verse that was at the forefront of my mind Ezekiel 36:26-27 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws.
Father God, King Jesus, Holy Spirit, make your home with me. You deserve all the Glory, Honor, and Praise. Open my eyes, my ears, touch my heart, my lips, and mind in a way that allows me to see my life the way you do. Thank you for upholding me, and lifting me up through all my trials and tribulations, Lord in all that you have brought me through you have not let me fail.
Help me to be a better witness of your Glory, your Grace, your Mercy, your unfailing love. May everyone who comes across this blog be touched in way that multiplies your majesty through the generations. My desire, O God, is for you to use me to reach your people.
King Jesus you reign and I thank you for saving me. You truly did not have to but you chose to because you love me. Help me Jesus to express your love in a greater way to those you place before me. No matter the cost. I offer this blog to you lord.
It is in your mighty name Jesus I pray,
Amen
