This Needs To Happen
|
first is COMMITMENT. Psalms 37:5 says; "Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him and He shall bring it to pass." We see a total commitment to God in the life of Abraham. We read in Gen. 22:1-19 where God who had given Abraham his son through His promise, asks Abraham to sacrifice his son on the altar and give Isaac back to God. Abraham trusted God, even if God required Isaac. Abraham had faith to believe God would provide the sacrifice, God would not require the life of his son Isaac. This was found to be true. When Abraham was willing to give his son back to God. God told Abraham, "Now I know that you will not withhold anything from me" This was and is total COMMITMENT to God. Secondly is DELIGENCE. Proverbs 10:4 says; "He who has a slack hand becomes poor, but the hand of the diligent makes rich." Stand your ground, don't back up, don't let satan steal your blessings. Be a good steward over what God has given you. In 2 Cor. 8:8-15, Paul exhorts us to remain deligent in our service to the Lord. "8 I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love. 9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich,
yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. 10 And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago. 11 Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have. 12 For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not. 13 For I mean not that other men be eased, and ye burdened: 14 But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality: 15 As it is written, He that had gathered much had nothing over; and he that had gathered little had no lack." (KJV) If we do this we will see souls saved. Thirdly is DETERMINATION. We see one of the greatest examples of determination in Mark 5:25-34 with the woman with the issue of blood. She had an ailment for 12 years where she had continous bleeding. She had suffered many things of many physicians, but she grew worse. Then she heard of Jesus. That people were being healed and set free. She became determined to reach Jesus. She said "If I could but just touch the hem of His garment, I know I will be healed." You see there was noting special about the garment. It was just the point of contact. Hearing about the miracles that Jesus did activated her faith to receive from the Lord. She succeeded in what she set out to do. She recieved her healing, her blessing, her reward for her commitment, her diligence, and her determination. If you will decided to follow these three simple steps you will see results in your life. I am not telling you, you won't have adversity along the way, because you will, but with Jesus on your side you will succeed. If you don't know
Jesus as your personal Savior today, Ask Jesus to come into your heart, and to forgive you of your sins, confess Jesus with your mouth that He is Lord of your life and you will be saved. God Bless you. Praise the Lord! Don't wait to see the results to SHOUT the victory; SHOUT the VICTORY to see the results!
In Christ:
