The LORD GOD commanded:
Exodus 20:3
King James Version
3 Thou shalt have no other gods
before me.
GOD was clear.
We are not to worship other gods.
But why is that so hard for others to accept?
Hasn't GOD shown enough of His love, through JESUS?
What makes man so unfaithful to our LORD?
Why is man swayed to worship other gods?
Especially the gods of gold, silver, and self.
Causing many of us to sin, stumble, and perish.
It is actually a puzzle to me, all this disobedience in man.
The hardness of the heart, the stubbornness of the soul.
The wily will, the rebellious reasoning, the envious ego.
When GOD made me born again, I made that 180-degree turn.
There was no question about following GOD, totally.
In complete love, joy, and faithfulness.
Aiming to learn all about His laws.
Dedicating each day to Him.
The next step was purging my heart, home, and work, of all things not of GOD.
Then I turned to JESUS, the Bible, and SPIRIT.
All HOLY Three started teaching me what pleases GOD.
In the same manner, I got to know what displeases GOD.
It just follows, I turned away from things that displeased Him.
This approach is almost childlike in its simplicity.
Why would I want the LORD to grieve, unnecessarily?
Now that I know His laws, why would I want to sin again?
JESUS already offered His life, for us.
Hebrews 10:26
King James Version
26 For if we sin wilfully
after that we have received
the knowledge of the truth,
there remaineth no more sacrifice
for sins,
SPIRIT keeps me on track.
He is MASTER TEACHER.
The One JESUS prayed for.
To guide us each day.
Until He returns.
Without SPIRIT, I wouldn't understand the Bible at all.
It is SPIRIT that makes things clear, simple, and easy for me.
I value His presence each moment, so I don't stray.
And it's so delightful being taught Scripture by SPIRIT.
He opens so many doors each time I inquire.
He knows when your heart is true.
He will give you TONS of answers.
Which only Scripture can provide.
Scripture holds GOD's laws, and commands.
It is SPIRIT Who makes things plain.
It's a wonderful way to live -- by the Bible.
You know your purpose.
And destiny.
The Bible tells us everything we need to know about GOD.
Everything about JESUS, repentance, and salvation.
Everything about prophecies, the Rapture, and Tribulation.
Everything about prophets, apostles, and disciples.
Everything about being born again.
Everything about the New Jerusalem.
All our blogs tell you more.
For the hungry soul, the BREAD of LIFE that is JESUS, will fill our hearts with His TRUTH.
For the thirsty spirit, the LIVING WATERS that is GOD, will make us thirst no more.
For the confused mind, the CHRIST MIND clarifies everything.
It is easy being on track, through SPIRIT.
He gives you discipline, order, heart, awareness, and gratitude.
He organizes your life, work, and Scripture studies.
He teaches you to love, as JESUS did.
He teaches you awareness, for the LORD's commands.
He teaches you gratitude, for GOD's love, mercy, and kindness.
All make sense when you are with SPIRIT.
Even as He actually lives in you -- as a child of GOD.
SPIRIT and I walk together.
And this is what happens:
Galatians 5:16-18
King James Version
16 This I say then,
Walk in the Spirit,
and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit,
and the Spirit against the flesh:
and these are contrary the one to the other:
so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
18 But if ye be led of the Spirit,
ye are not under the law.
Galatians 5:22-23
King James Version
22 But the fruit of the Spirit
is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance:
against such there is no law.
Galatians 5:24-26
King James Version
24 And they that are Christ's have crucified
the flesh with the affections and lusts.
25 If we live in the Spirit,
let us also walk in the Spirit.
26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory,
provoking one another, envying one another.
Make that choice now.
To belong to JESUS.
To be taught by SPIRIT.
And to really know GOD, through Both.
The Rapture awaits the saved.
Eternal life awaits the believer.
The choice is really pretty easy.
