ONE HEARTBEAT AWAYPART 119
(copied from Mark Cahill's Book)
The Bible labels us as co-laborers with the Lord Jesus Christ, not as co-watchers with Him. We need to be about the business of furthering His kingdom by showing Him to the people around us - whether we know them or not. Remember, God knows them and wants them to come to Him.
In the Bible, Satan is recorded as saying "I will..."
over and over and over. But Jesus is recorded as saying "Not My will but Thine be done." We need to live a life where it is not "my will," being done, but "His will." If we live close enough to Jesus, we will want to glorify God with every fiber of our being. We will want to do what He wants us to do. Jesus said in the Bible "follow Me." All I know when we say "Okay," and start following Him, everything in this world makes so much more sense. Old and intractable problems start to be worked out.
We need to obey and
follow Him to have
the highest quality of
life we can experience and a life that brings glory to God. Obedience is a choice and what a great choice it is!
"And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white, for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints."
(Revelation 19:8)
Once saved you are a saint of God, you were created to glorify God with your righteous acts.
God wants you to forsake all and glorify Him. Go for it!
