In This World

Our Omnipotent God is bigger than any of my difficulties, challenges, concerns, perceptions, or ANYTHING!  Do you believe this statement?  If you do then you would not be continually stewing in the issues, fears, challenges, and worry about things in this world.

Staying where you are, in the habits you now have is secure, and comfortable, but Jesus instructed his followers [and that includes YOU], we are to “GO!” To GO and preach, to GO and live and model as HE lived and modeled.

Jesus urged his followers [and meaning you and me too], to MOVE!  MOVE from what?  We must be nudged by PAIN it appears until we are MOVED to MOVE.  Your PAIN will force you ahead or PAIN will keep you locked in Satan’s domain, of which he enjoys. What is your PAIN, Where is your PAIN?  Is your agony an addiction to anything, that on the surface appears, and seems innocent?  Think about it.

Where do you spend most of your time throughout the day?

Each of these and many more has an antidote. Can you take each action above and next to it write the antidote? Let’s look at a few to get you started:

An Addiction – Sobriety

Indebtedness – Financially Responsible

Position & Power – Humility in Serving

Unpure Heart & Thoughts – Cleanliness

Possessed by Hatred – Forgiveness and Restoration

You are not a victim of these things described above.  What you are is locked in Satan’s cause for being here loosed on earth and he HAS YOU locked and right where he wants you.

You are linked up with these things which are meaningless and distances you from GOD.

This adversary, Satan, has already been conquered by Christ!  So why are you still suffering? You must CLAIM this fact!  Christ already vanquished Satan.

How can I alter this condition of distracted, unhappiness?

God has a plan for your spiritual growth.  All you have to do is begin and live His plan everyday.  Let’s look at what it entails in your life.

God desires just what is best for you, in your intellect, soul, body, and heart. Begin by praying to Him, reading His word, and carrying out what He directs you to do in His love letter to you The Bible.

That seems intimidating!

Okay, begin by Reading through the Bible in one year. This sort of curriculum will start you off reading scripture.  Once you read it, pray that God would teach you how to use that scripture in your life today.

Begin visiting a Bible Believing church each week. Visit many and ask God to direct you to the one, from which you would profit most.

Once you have a church, check for their new member or introductory courses and join up. You will meet some fantastic Christians who will assist you begin your journey and knowledge of who God is and how much He loves you, and wants the best for your life.

Surround yourself with other new believers who are on the same path you are on to discover who God is.

Attend those special services your church provides to get to know other Christians and engage in “Fellowship” - God designed for us to be in connection [Fellowship] with Him and others in the body of Christ.

As your faith develops and increases so will your spiritual walk with our Father in Heaven.

You will never want to go back to the dark existence you formerly led, once you experience Christ in your life and all the light and love which is there in His presence.

Do you sense a nudge or an emotion you have not experienced before when you were reading this blog post?  If yes, then God is urging you to encounter Him.  If so, then God is pulling you closer.  All you have to do is accept His invitation.
