TIME CHANGE SUNDAY
SET YOUR CLOCKS “UP” AN HOUR BEFORE BED
Beats From Your Pastor’s Heart:
Titus 2:11-12, “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;”
To properly understand the Christian life, we need to apprehend a divine principle that governs God’s relationship with man: whenever there is demand from God, there is always supply waiting to meet that demand.
We just need to be escorted to the source of the supply.
Whether it is the demand of the law, the Sermon on the Mount, our environmental dealings, the church life, or the kingdom–all are to lead us to Christ to interact and fellowship with Him, that we might partake of His victorious life.
May this word govern us the rest of our lives, so that we would realize again and again that our weaknesses are our escorts out of ourselves into Another life.
When our flesh reacts to the Lord’s measurement, instead of staying in the reaction, or fueling the reaction, we need to allow the reaction to bring us to Christ in a specific way.
Various kinds of reactions–discouragements, defeats, and temptations–are all our escorts to experience more of Christ.
Yes, your flesh is lustful.
Your lustful feelings affect you in a negative way.
But walk in the Spirit and you will turn those feelings into paths to Christ.
None of us can change our flesh (John 3:6).
It is irreparable and unchangeable.
However, while we are still in these mortal bodies as redeemed children of God, God uses the flesh to lead us to Christ over and over again!
Therefore, when we allow our greatest weakness to escort us to Christ, it will become the factor of our greatest supply of life.
Until Tomorrow
With a Shepherd’s Love
Pastor
