This morning... Church... Hallelujah... it was another amazing service... Great Worship, a sermon once again challenging us to live authentically, following Christ, allowing Him to be Lord over all areas of our lives...
Actually, we really need to do that... if we say He is Lord, He needs to be Lord... otherwise we are not representing Him well and are hurting the cause...
Only through Him can we have this kind of an authentic walk, only He can make us act in love and not react in anger and revenge... if we are not increasingly becoming more and more like that we need to be asking ourselves if we will be one of those people that when we see our Lord in person get's this answer... why are you calling me Lord... I do not know you...So let's do this...Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test? 2 Cor 13:5
How can we know.... well, if the Holy Spirit is in us... we will see changes as He is growing His fruit in us... a desire to serve Him and know Him more.. deep sorrow when we slip and increased love when we find His forgiveness and unconditional love...
He has promised us this:
being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
So let us examine ourselves, let us surrender to Him and seek His face daily... not only can we then be sure to be one of His children, but we also will be filled by His love and we won't be able to contain it....
others will be blessed... Thank You Lord..
