Nice Try
August 12, 2019
We will never get to a point of perfection in this life, but the point is that we keep trying and obeying God without giving up. Our faith and relationship with Him grows the more we look to Him in our weakness, and His work in us never ceases. When we stay focused and don’t give up, we can encourage others along the way who need that push to stay in the game.

The Bible tells us that God provides an exit out of every temptation so that we do not have to sin. Everyone has different difficulties when it comes to certain sins. We must focus on the things God has saved us from struggling with rather than getting discouraged about the things we do struggle with.

We always have choices to make throughout our lives and we must ask God to give us the wisdom to make the right choices. Wisdom does not only mean knowing what choice to make but it includes following through with that right choice. The most important choice you can ever make is to follow Christ.

Many people spend their lives chasing after worldly power and possessions in an attempt to feel like they have arrived. The fact is that nothing will satisfy the way Jesus does, and He is the only Way to get into Heaven at the end of this life on earth. We must spend our lives seeking Him first in all things, trusting He will provide all we need, and excitedly work for Him until the day we arrive in eternity and get to see Him face to face.

Marriage is meant to display total oneness and intimacy, yet when sin becomes involved in brings shame and disconnection. The Bible gives instruction for the way husbands are to love their wives and wives are to submit to their husbands and in that design we have marriage as it was intended to be, but none of us can fulfill our roles without Him.

It is best to fear God and obey Him no matter what it costs us because not fearing Him puts us in a dangerous position. The more we know God, the more we fear Him with a certain awe and respect that He deserves.

We all start off in over our heads buried in sin, but God has made a way through Jesus Christ to take away all our sin, leaving some consequence so we can learn from our mistakes. The more we dive into the Scriptures and apply what we read, the more God’s Spirit works in us and through us, changing us for His glory.

The Bible tells us that when we abide in God, He not only lives in us but also lives through us producing Spiritual fruit. We can do nothing to bring Him glory apart from Him. We must remain in Him so that He can prune us to produce more fruit.

The Bible tells about a story in Nehemiah where God’s people came together to rebuild a city, astonishing everyone that it was completed in 52 days. God wants His Church to work together so that the works that are accomplished point directly to Him and no one is alone in the process.

We tend to have difficulty accepting God’s love for us and forgiveness for our sins when the devil reminds us repeatedly of whom we once were. When we come to terms with Christ’s sacrifice for us being fully sufficient to cover our sins, we are then held to a standard of showing the same forgiveness and mercy to others.
