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.

"GOD'S WILL DOES NOT ALWAYS COME TO PASS" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
GOD'S WILL DOES NOT ALWAYS COME TO PASS
I TALKED THE OTHER DAY ABOUT FITNESS, BOTH PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL. NOW I WANT TO TALK ABOUT BEING HUNGRY AND THIRSTY. WE ALL KNOW THAT WE HAVE TO EAT TO SURVIVE AND WE CAN'T GO TOO MANY DAYS WITHOUT WATER. THIS IS THE PHYSICAL SIDE OF OUR BODY.
NOW LET'S LOOK AT WHAT JESUS SAYS ABOUT BEING HUNGRY AND THIRSTY. IN THE BEATITUDES IN MATHEW 5:1-11 JESUS TEACHES IN VERSE 6 "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." JESUS PROMISES US THAT IF WE ARE HUNGRY FOR HIM, WE WILL BE FILLED.
HE ALSO SAYS IN MATTHEW 11:29 "learn of me". YOU CAN LISTEN TO HUNDREDS OF TEACHING TAPES AND READ HUNDREDS OF BOOKS BUT THE BEST WAY TO LEARN OF HIM IS TO GET INTO YOUR BIBLE. JESUS IS THE WORD AND THIS IS WHAT OUR DIET SHOULD BE. HE EVEN TELLS US THIS IN JOHN 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
WHAT WE HAVE TO REMEMBER IS THAT WE CAN'T EVER STOP COMING TO HIM OR BELIEVING IN HIM. WE NEED THAT NOURISHMENT OF THE WORD EVERY DAY. IF YOU FEEL THE NEED TO GET INTO HIS WORD AND LEARN OF HIM, CONSIDER YOURSELF VERY BLESSED. THE REASON I SAY THIS IS BECAUSE OF WHAT JESUS SAYS IN JOHN 6:44 AND I WILL LEAVE YOU WITH IT TO PONDER OVER...."No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day."
IT IS GOD'S WILL THAT NONE SHOULD PERISH BUT HIS WILL DOES NOT ALWAYS COME TRUE. I KNOW HE IS THE ALMIGHTY GOD BUT HE WILL NOT GO AGAINST HIS OWN WORD AND MAKE US WANT HIM. LOOK WHAT IT SAYS IN 2ND PETER 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. WE KNOW THAT SOME WILL PERISH AND IT IS UP TO US TO GET TO THESE PEOPLE AND TELL THEM ABOUT HIM. WE MIGHT BE THEIR ONLY HOPE FOR SALVATION. LET'S DON'T LET THEM DOWN.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
