Leftovers
November 24, 2017
Instead of pursuing a career and money to bring ourselves joy in life, we need to live obedient to God in all that He calls us to do and that will bring about balance. When we give Him our best to be used by Him, He utilizes us for His work and blesses us in the process.

We may often find ourselves comparing our sin with others in order to try and look better than we really are. The truth is that we all fall short of God’s standard and we need to humbly accept our status as a “sinner” and allow God to come into our lives to change us. When we are repentant and let Him work in us, all of our goodness can point directly back to Him and bring Him glory.

While the Bible encourages us to ask God for things, and even to be persistent, once He has answered our prayer we need to accept the answer He’s given, even if it’s “no.” God always has a purpose and a plan for the answers He gives, and sometimes us learning to trust Him is better than getting what we want in the moment.

It’s easy to look at other people’s “big” struggles with drugs, alcohol, sex, or other sins and not see the glaring issue that we may be dealing with in regards to food. The Bible is very clear about gluttony and the consequences to our health can be detrimental. If this is a struggle for us then we need to find someone to help us and keep us accountable.

When God tells us to do something, it’s not smart to put it off or blatantly disobey. We need to listen to God’s voice and immediately obey His promptings when He tells us what to do or who to help. When we thank for all the things He’s done for us, our love for Him grows and we more willingly serve Him.

No matter how hopeless we think someone is, when God prompts us to speak to them about the Gospel we need to obey and watch His power work to make a spiritually dead person alive in Him. It is in those moments that God gets the most glory because He made possible what seemed to be impossible.

God has offered us forgiveness that covers over all of our sin, but often times we are reminded of our mistakes and we continue to live in bondage. In order to truly move on from the past, we must forgive ourselves and others who have hurt us so that we can live in freedom.

God allows different trials and suffering in our lives so that He can work on our character, build our hope in Him, and exercise our endurance. Waiting on God involves keeping our faith in Him, even when we don’t feel like it, and it helps us avoid the consequences of when we try things our own way.

There are times when we do not want Jesus to come in and work on certain parts of us, but what we need to realize is that Jesus has purpose in His work in our lives, even in discipline. Rather than continuing in out own ways, which are not working for us, we need to let Him into our hearts so that He can work on us and show us His way for our lives.

When we are lit about Jesus and what He’s done in our lives, others see the change in us and want the same for themselves. Once we get lit by first becoming a Christian, we can stay lit by remaining in His Word and following Him.

When we become Christians, Jesus lives inside of us and all of His power is, therefore, in us. God may call us out to do simple acts of obedience, but when we live in disobedience we are not only effecting ourselves but others around us as well. We need to live in obedience to God so that He can use us as a lifeboat for others.
