About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"WHAT IS NOT OF FAITH IS SIN" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
YOU WILL NOTICE, IN THE LAST MESSAGE ON FAITH, THAT IN BOTH INSTANCES THE PEOPLE INVOLVED DID SOMETHING. THE RULER WENT TO JESUS AND ASKED HIM TO HELP HIS DAUGHTER AND THE CENTURION ASKED JESUS TO HEAL HIS SERVANT. BOTH HAD FAITH TO BELIEVE THAT THEIR REQUEST WOULD BE ANSWERED AND DID NOT HESITATE. I AM WONDERING JUST HOW MANY TIMES WE HAVE HESITATED AND NOT RECEIVED THE BLESSING THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN OURS.
I KNOW THAT THERE ARE TIMES WHEN WE JUST DON'T GET A CLEAR FEELING ON WHAT GOD WANTS US TO DO. HOWEVER, I BELIEVE WE SOMETIMES HAVE TO GO WITH OUR "GUT" AND MAKE THE DECISION THAT GIVES US THE MOST PEACE. WHATEVER WE DO WE MUST DO IT IN FAITH AND BELIEVE THAT WHATEVER DECISION WE MAKE, AS LONG AS IT IS NOT AGAINST GOD'S WILL, HE WILL PROSPER IT. I ALSO BELIEVE WE MUST DO SOMETHING. JUST THINK ABOUT A BOAT WITH A RUDDER. THAT RUDDER GUIDES THAT BOAT BUT THE BOAT HAS TO BE MOVING FIRST. IF IT JUST SITS STILL, THE RUDDER WILL NOT TURN THE BOAT.
THERE ARE TWO THINGS THAT ARE IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER. WHY MUST WE DO IT IN FAITH? ROMANS 14:23 SAYS "And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin." WE NEVER WANT TO GET OUT OF FAITH. SIN IS NOT AN OPTION.
THE OTHER REASON I LEFT YOU WITH THE OTHER DAY IS FOUND IN HEBREWS 11:6 WHICH SAYS "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."
LET'S ALL KEEP MOVING FORWARD WITH GOD, HAVING FAITH TO BELIEVE THAT ALL THAT HE SAYS IN HIS WORD IS TRUE. LET'S LET HIM BE OUR RUDDER BUT JUST REMEMBER WE HAVE TO BE MOVING IN ORDER FOR HIM TO GUIDE US. WE JUST HAVE TO BE MOVING IN A POSITIVE WAY AND IN FAITH.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
