LET US OBEY CHRIST AND DO WHAT HE SAYS

 "And why do you call me, Lord, Lord, and do not do what I say? Luke 6:46"


In today's world, there are many teachings of the word of God, and some teachers who teach the word of God have altered God's word and created their own teachings and instructions that are not what Christ said. In the book of Matthew 15:8-9, Jesus said:

"These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules."

The problem with the church today is the compromising of scripture, and this has caused many people to sin against God because the things they do and believe are not from God they are instructions of people.

Some people believe in God, but their actions do not align with what they believe and confess. They mention Jesus, but he is not in their hearts; their hearts are held and filled with evil and the things of this world.

The second type of people are the ones who think what they were taught is God's truth, but it is religious rules, so they obey and follow human instructions and not God's instructions.

That is why our Lord Jesus Christ asks us, "Why do you call me, Lord, Lord, and do not do what I say?" Therefore, from today, decide in your heart that you will do what Christ Jesus has commanded us and what is written in His Word.

Stand firm in God's truth and not be influenced by the things of this world. Do not obey people more than you obey God. Your pastor or your Religious leader can not take the place of God; everything they teach and instruct you must be in line with the word of God.

Prayer: I pray for your mercy, Lord, and Savior, for my disobedience to you. Teach me to follow you and not human instructions. Amen.

Are You With The Right People?

Pursue righteous living…Enjoy the companionship of those who call on the Lord with pure hearts.” 2 Timothy 2:22   If you want to be in God’s will and experience His blessings, you have to be around the right people. The people who are right for you are the people who will be honest with you. They don’t just tell you what you want to hear, but they tell you what you need to hear. “Faithful are the wounds of a friend.” (Proverbs 27:6). Good friends are not afraid to confront you.   Get around the right people because everybody who comes into your life brings a spirit. Sometimes, it is easy to gravitate to people we can relate to and who are similar to us. But the problem with that is, if you both share the same weaknesses, you will not grow in that area. You need to get around someone who is strong in the areas where you are weak. They know how to help get you to where you want to be.   In 2 Chronicles 10, Rehoboam had just been appointed king. Some of the leaders of Israel met w

How Are Your Management Skills? (Part 1)

  “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’” Matthew 25:21   The way you manage your money will determine how much God will trust you with it. In Matthew 25, a wealthy man entrusted his finances to some of his servants. He gave them each certain amounts, and when he returned, he found that some had used the money to make more money, but one servant had just hidden his in the ground. The master (who represents God) was very unhappy with this servant and called him “lazy and wicked” and even took away the little he had been entrusted with.   The master was happy with the others because no matter the amount they had been entrusted with, they used what was given to them and increased it. The servant, who was given only one bag of gold, made the decision to bury it. God expects you to use what He has given you to be a productive person. Even if you ju

Choose love over judgment

"I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.” Galatians 2:21 NKJV   The message today is clear and very brief. God reminds us that our righteousness is not attained through our actions but by faith in Jesus Christ. If our righteousness is obtained by faith and not by deeds, why do we judge each other? Why do we point fingers? Why do we gossip? The mouths of Christians have become very quick to judge others when they make mistakes. Let's not judge others, especially when they make mistakes. Remember that the weaknesses you judge in others, you also have, and often yours are worse than those you judge. The word of God says, "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Matthew 7:1-2."   Secondly, let's not consider ourselves righteous and better than others. The word of God says, "for all
