Some people hear the Word and don’t accept any of it. Some hear the Word and get excited at first but eventually the excitement fades and nothing changes. Others can hear the Word but are distracted by other things in life. Yet there are some who hear the Word and it resonates in them, causing them to grow and produce spiritual fruit in their life. Everyone falls into one of these categories and you can tell which one you’re in by observing if your life is producing fruit.

Since Jesus is already the King and Lord of all, we need to stop trying to take over His throne and submit to His reign. When He is running our lives the way He wants and we are obeying Him, it may not all work out the way we want it to but there is heavenly reward and our purpose of glorifying Him is fulfilled.

Mothers can cause a lot of problems in a marriage when they won’t let their son or daughter go. The Bible says that a man needs to leave his family to be joined to his wife. Men and women can honor their parents without obeying them once they are grown adults.

Too often we stand in our own ways and do not obey God in what He is calling us to do. God is looking for us to surrender to His will so that we may live in obedience to Him. We must surrender first and say “uncle” before we can call Him “Father.” Once we submit to God He gives us the power we need to wrestle with the temptations of this world.

God is the ultimate source of comfort for all our pains and struggles. He comforts us in various ways so that we can turn around and comfort others. It is important that we comfort others because if we are not there now, we will someday be at a place in life where we need others to help comfort us.

Jesus knew in the beginning that Judas would betray Him and yet He still let him close and served him. The devil knew that he could not get into Jesus so he got as close as he could but even through that Jesus gave us an example of loving our enemies. Regardless of the circumstances and whom we are called to serve, we need to obey God at all cost because we will have to answer to Him one day.

We have a constant war inside of us between the flesh and the Holy Spirit. The flesh goes along with any temptation and tells us it’s something we need. The Holy Spirit, however, gives us the strength to resist temptation and live a holy life which is the only kind worth living.

The devil uses everything in this world to pull our desires and attention away from God, and sometimes it doesn’t take much for him to succeed. We must keep our focus on heaven, knowing that life in Christ offers more than we could ever obtain from the world.

We all have sin in our lives that we would rather ignore than get rid of, just like a jug of sour milk that stays in the fridge. But God is our provider and will never let us be empty. He is simply waiting for us to pour out our sour milk so that He can pour out His blessings on our lives.

The Old Testament is filled with laws and stories about God commanding His people to do certain things that don’t make sense to us. Ultimately, God’s commands lined up things for Jesus to be put to death many years later so that we can all be saved. We may not get it, but we still must trust God.
