faith, not religion

   Too many times we get stuck in our own ruts, thinking that this is pleasing to God.  When, honestly, nothing is worse than being stuck in a certain religious routine.  God does wants us to worship Him in all things we do or say.  There is a song I like to sing called, " You Never Mentioned Him to Me." In this song the writer, James Rowe,  warns us as Christians to always be a witness to our friends and family because if we don't, their blood will be on our hands come judgment day.
    Judgment Day will be a day when all our works will be laid out  before God. We will be judged for what we do and obviously don't do while here on Earth. The only thing we can take to Heaven with us is someone else. If we don't listen to the spirit our blessings will surely be given to someone else and that will be no one else's fault but our own.  We might not all be preachers, or singers, or teachers, but we all can pray and always be kind to others as we meet them on their way.
    Even though we are not to force someone to come to Christ we are commanded to share salvation.
God may have a simple task in mind for some of us but it might mean a great deal to one who is in need of prayer and uplifting. I said that to say, the Devil will try His best to discourage God's children in anyway that He can.  But what He fails to remember is God has already won the war and and it up to us to praise HIM.  The devil will try everything to stop us but we must keep on testifying and growing in God's grace according to His will.

Terrific Tuesday

2 Peter 1King James Version (KJV) 1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; 6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. 8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall n...

Thoughtful Thursday

If God Be For Us 31 What then shall we say to this? If God is for us, who is against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, will he not also give us all things with him? 33 Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies; 34 who is to condemn? Is it Christ Jesus, who died, yes, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who indeed intercedes for us?[e] 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, “For thy sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” 37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from...
