A Little Walk With God

Why do people look for ways to find fault with the messenger? Because the truth of the message forces them to look inside themselves and they don’t like what they see. Truth will set them free from the bondage they feel, but they must first face that truth and it is often very ugly. It’s not easy to face the truth, but until you do, you can not find real repentance and so real forgiveness.

Their instructions were clear and they carried them out faithfully. Your instructions are clear, too. Jesus gave them to you before He came back to heaven. “Go into all the world and make disciples. Teach them My commands and baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.” If you’ll do that, you’ll do some incredible things for the kingdom and God will be with your each step of the way.

Treat your neighbors well. Understand that they might be doing things for you that you really aren’t aware. Turning them away in their time of need is not conducive to your continued good health. Second, forgiveness and kindness always works better than rude and crass behavior. Third, remember God works behind the scenes with His servants. Take care of them. You don’t know how He might intervene in your life to use you to help them. Be ready to do so, though. It’s always to your advantage also.

Time is precious. You might have today or you might have another 100 years. But you don’t know. Life is too fleeting not to prepare for being with God now and forever. And how about your co-worker or your spouse? Your children and your neighbor? They need God, too. Who will introduce them to Him if you don’t? Their time is short, also. You could be their last chance. Don’t let them lose that opportunity because you think you have something “more important” to do. What can be more important that helping someone make it to heaven?

David knew where to turn for help. He called out to God and had confidence to know He could deliver. God could deliver provisions when and where he needed them. God could deliver protection when he needed it. God could deliver comfort and security. God could deliver peace. God could deliver his enemies into his hands. There is nothing God could not do for him. The same is true today for His followers. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

I can’t tell you how important prayer is to you. So many think of prayer as just a few rote words at meal or bedtime, but prayer is so much more. It’s communicating with God. How else will you know Him or express yourself to Him except through prayer? God must hear from you to solidify your relationship with Him. Prayer is the vehicle to do it.

Every thing that comes into your life also requires time to maintain it. Whatever the thing might be, it will take time from your life. Whether a house, a yard, a gadget, a time-saver, whatever the object might be, it requires time from the set number of hours in any given day. It is the intangible you want to relish, the relationships with the immortal. And the immortal are you and God. He made you in His image so you have an eternal spirit that will either live with Him or apart from Him forever. You get to choose.

We hear about God's protection of David through all of Saul’s attempts to destroy David. But few ask an important question about the story of Michal’s betrayal of her father’s treachery and helping David escape his clutches. What are David and Michal doing with a life-sized idol in their home?

Not many want to change places with John. His might sound like an interesting life, getting to baptize God's son. But living like John and losing your life to an executioner’s sword, few will sign up for knowingly. God won’t give you John’s task. But He will give you something only you can do for Him. And when you do what He asks, boldly and unhesitatingly, I guarantee you’ll meet Him face to face one day.
