MESSAGES

Make up your mind (Revelation 3:20)

One of the most important decisions in your life was the decision to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.

But no less important are the daily decisions you have to make in relation to God, because accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior means nothing if you don't demonstrate in your daily life that Jesus is your Lord and Savior.

God does not give up leaving man to decide whether to follow him or not, although God has the authority to force man to do anything.

God's will is that we seek him and love him with all our heart, with all our soul, with all our mind and with all our strength.

Mark 12:30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.

Deuteronomy 4:29 But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul.

Revelation 3:20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.

GOD'S RESPONSE AND REWARD FOR THESE ATTITUDES WILL ALWAYS BE OUR FELLOWSHIP WITH HIM.

When Jesus passed in front of Matthew, until then a tax collector, the only thing Jesus said to him was: FOLLOW ME and MATTHEW FOLLOWED IMMEDIATELY.

Matthew 9:9 As Jesus went on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax collector’s booth. Follow me, he told him, and Matthew got up and followed him.

Choosing Jesus in your daily life is essential for you to get closer to him and have the forged character of Christ in your life.

Perhaps you have already decided or will decide today one of these questions:

. I will lose patience or I will be long-suffering.
. I will curse or I will bless.
. I will complain or be grateful.
. I will bribe or I will wait on God.
. I will cheat or I will be honest.
. I will obey God or I will sin.
. I will be blessed or I will be cursed.
. I'm going to church or I'm going to rest.
. I'm going to get my blessing or I'm going to get the Blesser.
. I will worship or I will just practice a ritual.
. I'm going to pray or I'm not going to pray.
. I will serve God or I will serve the devil.
. I'm going to heaven or I'm going to hell .

And these are just some of the decisions you have to make every day.

HAVE YOU MADE YOUR DECISIONS TODAY? WHAT WERE YOUR DECISIONS?

The Lord bless you and keep you.
