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.

"STAYING IN GOD'S WORD" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
STAYING IN GOD'S WORD
THERE IS SO MUCH TALK ON KEEPING OUR BODIES IN SHAPE BUT WHAT ABOUT YOUR SPIRITS? DO YOU EXERCISE IT? WE KNOW OUR BODIES HAVE TO BE TAKEN CARE OF IN ORDER FOR THEM TO WORK PROPERLY. WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE WE EAT GOOD, DRINK PLENTY OF WATER, AND PROTECT OURSELVES FROM ANYTHING THAT WILL HARM US. AS FOR OUR SPIRIT, HOW DO WE TREAT IT? IT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF AS WELL AS OUR BODIES. IT NEEDS TO BE TRAINED IN THE THINGS OF GOD. THEY NEED TO BE FED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD'S WORD AND WATERED BY HIS "LIVING WATER".
JUST AS OUR BODIES WILL BECOME UNPRODUCTIVE, OUR SPIRITS WILL ALSO BECOME UNPRODUCTIVE. IF WE TRY TO RELY ON THE THINGS WE HAVE BEEN TAUGHT ALL OUR LIVES AND THEY DO NOT LINE UP WITH GOD'S WORD, THEY ARE JUST MYTHS AND OLD WIVE'S TALES. IT EVEN TALKS ABOUT THIS IN 1ST TIMOTHY 4:7-8 WHERE IT SAYS "Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly. For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.: WE MUST KEEP OUR SPIRITS FULL OF GOD'S WORD SO WE WILL KNOW HOW TO MINISTER TO OTHERS.
SO, KEEP YOURSELF SO FULL OF HIS WORD THAT IT WILL BE FLOWING OUT OF YOU SO OTHER PEOPLE WILL BE ABLE TO RECEIVE IT. JESUS SAID IN MATTHEW 11:28-29 "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls." HE SAYS "LEARN OF ME" AND HOW WILL WE DO THAT IF WE DO NOT READ OUR BIBLES. HE WANTS TO TEACH US AND FELLOWSHIP WITH US. IT IS UP TO US. HE HAS PUT IT ALL THERE FOR US, WHAT WILL YOU DO?
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
