Obey!

+++++Life is precious because we have such little time here on Earth to share the good news of Jesus. Yes he holds us to our promises and disciplines us through conviction, but He also frees us from being slaves, slaves to sin and to this world. Take up your cross and your Royal oath as a co-heir to the throne of Heaven. We must choose to obey our Adonai for it is through our walk with Christ that others will experience their acceptance into the Kingdom of Heaven!   Baruch Atah Adonai!

Open the Eyes of your Heart

+++++We get so use to walking with our burdens that before long we don’t even realize they are there. Know that Paul’s charge in Romans is to believers about being slaves to sin. Open your eyes and realize you have hidden your pains and you should let Jesus in. This is not about going to church, this is about an intimacy with Christ who can pull you from the roots of your bondage. He can fill any loss you encounter with His loving Mercy and Grace. Selah

our testimony

+++++ We have been taught for so many years in church about what it means to give our testimony. I think we have missed the mark on this one. I have seen so many people get up and tell people in detail of where they have been and how God brought them out of there. Now don’t get me wrong I do think there is a time and place for details, however I believe Christ has a different aspect of giving our testimony in mind. You see I believe our testimony is where we are at and not where we have been. Most people just need to know the person they are talking to is broken like them. Loving Jesus and living by faith is not a crutch like some would like us to believe, rather it is our foundation, the Rock of Christ is what we stand on. When it is our time to give our testimony, we must let people know we have been to rock bottom and to places we did not want to go. Regardless of the struggle or sin there shouldn’t be a judgement of what is worse and what is not so bad. For each of us our sin or struggle is a big deal.  There will be times where detailed testimony is necessary, but that is up to the Holy Spirit and should be handled with prayer and righteous discretion. That’s why we must go to where Jesus goes and that is to the heart. All of our hearts are broken the same way through pain, shame and fear and if we can allow the Holy Spirit to use us to make someone feel safe to open up and talk then so be it. Our testimony is how Christ lives through us and without preaching or pointing fingers people will want what they see you have. A mighty and gracious Lord who does not have an issue with our sins. He has compassion and mercy for His Beloved! Amen and Amen
