1 John 4:19

We love because he first loved us…

God does not need us to be perfect or to be great show performers in this life.

There are people who will tell you that everything they do shows that they are righteous because of their good moral lifestyle, but it is faith and surrender to Jesus Christ that pleases God. He considers you righteous if you have a relationship with His Son, Jesus.

God doesn't need great performers in His ministry. There are plenty of false teachers, preachers, and prophets who are great actors; they never heard the call from God to be in the ministry.  They chose to live a lifestyle that gives them pleasure, in a church or a platform with hundreds and thousands of admirers and fans.

God wants us to understand Him and His Word, and then share what we have learned with other people. We are to be ambassadors for the Kingdom of God. We should show that we are happy and content with what God has done in our lives, and that we are people who live peaceful lives filled with joy.

When the time comes, we will stand before the Lord and He will tell us how well we have done in living our lives for Jesus. God is looking for people who believe in Him, and for those who care enough to love His Son, Jesus. He wants our life experience to show our journey from ignorance to understanding, and from living in the dark to learning how to live in the light.

 -

The purpose for our lives is to come to the knowledge of the Glory of Jesus Christ. We must believe that He gave His life to save us from our sins, and then we must be willing to give our lives to Him, so that He can help us to live the lives we were destined to live in Him.

Our lives in Jesus should be filled with love, hope and purpose. We will not show to the world perfect lives, we will show that the perfect place for all of humanity is to love and to live in Jesus Christ.

This is why we are never given all the knowledge the Lord knows about our lives; God is seeking to teach us about Himself and about who we are in Christ. We will find ourselves going through many trials and tribulations, but we will also continue to stand in our faith.

The people around us wonder how we are able to keep on going, but the answer is always in our walk with Jesus Christ. No one else is capable of saving our souls from sin and no one else can give us the strength to survive; that is the providence of our God and our creator who loves us with all of His heart and soul.

Perfect knowledge will not make us into the people that God needs for this life's journey. It is our willingness to go through the process of sanctification that will transform our hearts and minds. God gives us just what we need to live, survive, and thrive, anything more would be counterproductive.

One day we will have access to everything, to the perfect knowledge of the Lord and His creation, but until then, we must be content to keep on working and to keep on learning for our Lord Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer…

Prayer of Salvation:

Dear God,

I come to You in the Name of Jesus. I admit that I am not right with You, and I want to be right with You. I ask You to forgive me of all my sins. The Bible says if I confess with my mouth that “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead, I will be saved (Rom. 10:9). I believe with my heart and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is the Lord and Savior of my life. Thank You for saving me!
In Jesus’ Name I pray. Amen.
