Your Testimony..What's In Your Wallet?
Proverbs 18:24 NKJ.
24. A man who has friends must himself be friendly, But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
You see there are a lot of people in this world who want friends..
but not everybody wants to be a friend...
what they want is the benefits of Being friends..but
Not in the recipracle sense of the word..
Prov. 18:24 MSG.
Friends come and friends go,
but a true friend sticks by you like family.
Once you take Jesus as your savior..God considers you a friend..but more importantly..
He considers you family In every sense of the word..right down to your inheritance
David realized this as we read
quite often about his relationship..that he had with God
Psalm 139:7-10NKJ.
7. Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
8. If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.
9. If I take the wings of the morning,
And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10. Even there Your hand shall lead me,
And Your right hand shall hold me.
Everywhere you look, There God is..He is omnipresent, which means He is everywhere all at the same time..
You can't hide from Him..you can not escape His presence!
Hes right here, right now, you dont have to go any farther than the whisper of your voice to Find Him..He's always on call
Hes ready to act on our behalf in a moments notice, always ready to be attentive to our every need.
All of humanity needs someone who knows and encourages us, also who will comfort us and build us up!
Is there anyone who really knows us?
Is there anyone who really understands us?
The answer is clear..Yes there is!
God knows everything there is to know about you, and even after knowing all that there is to know...He still loves you and wants to take care of you and be a part of your life!
David, was continually amazed that God was so intimately involved in all the circumstances of his life!
Every detail and no detail to insignificant to be left out or overlooked!
God is amazing..wouldn't you agree?
Today, after all this time, God hasnt changed..He still wants to be intimately involved in all of our lives,
The thing is, most people including a lot of Christians, are happy with just a casual acquaintance with God
All believers know of God, but far to few ever really get to know God personal and up close!
We humans..are easily excited about a lot of things..
Like football..baseball..basketball..well pretty much all sports
The Lotto..music..concerts..politics
Pretty much everything excites humanity..except for some reason
The most exciting thing of all..their creator
You see..everything good that we enjoy "EVERYTHING" comes from God
James 1:17 NKJ
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.
And while we freely enjoy what has been given..
You would think everyone would want to have..
an intimate relationship with God and give thanks for what we have been given
But theres this little thing called a will..that keeps most people from experiencing all that God has to offer.
And I say ALL..because there is so much more to be enjoyed! Amen?
If Humanity..only knew what it was like to have
a real relationship with Him, through His Son Jesus,
They would be amazed everyday by the awesome display of love..kindness and concern He has in all of our lives.
Oh they know bits and pieces about religion, because someone has probably preached at them before about it,
Instead of telling them how amazing it is to have a relationship with Him through Jesus His Son!
It's one thing to talk about the life..it's so much more alluring
When someone can see you living the life..your telling them about!
Our Testimony..is our greatest witnessing tool!!
Amazing things and opportunities start to happen, when a person starts to say Yes to the things of God..that includes both the sinner and the saint..Amen?
TBS. Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.
Some people spend there entire life running from God, some just for a season,
Some are running from God this morning and what He wants to do, in and through their lives,
and their sitting in churchs all over the Country
and the world for that matter..
one question comes to mind..why are they running from God? They should be running
Towards God..Amen?
