After the feast, the fear, the fall, the fight, and the fire, we need to still trust, believe, listen, and walk after the Lord. This will make a positive difference in our lives.
What is Jesus calling you to do? We can not look at what others are doing to see what God wants us to do. God calls each one of us according to His own purpose. [Note: Prior to today's message, Alex Morse talks about his experience at U-Turn for Christ.]
Whether we are aware of it or not, we are building something through our daily lives. Are we building on rock or on sand? If we hear His words and put them into practice, our foundation is sure.
We can be acquainted with a person and still not know him. As with our earthly relationships, we get to know Jesus through spending time with Him in conversation. This is a life long endeavor that begins at the cross.
False teachers prey on the immature, the untrained and the gullible, but we can recognize them by their bad fruit if we remain diligent and study God's word.
Is it true that there are many ways to God? The Bible says there are two gates, one wide, one narrow. We all start out "by default" on the wide path that leads to destruction. But there is a narrow gate that leads to heaven. It is the only way and it is Jesus.
Bold action is required of the believer to see which doors God will open. Sometimes we give up too early and sometimes we pursue our own will, but when God opens the door, no man can close it.
Two great universal needs are to know God and to be right with Him through salvation. To think correctly about our salvation, we must remember that we were redeemed first and foremost for Christ and not for ourselves.
We can not have a relationship with the living God until we seek Him. And when we seek Him with all our hearts--forsaking all else--He will be found and will shower us with righteousness.
