Mark 8:33 But when Jesus turned and looked at his disciples, he rebuked Peter. “Get behind me, Satan!” he said. “You do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.”

Can you imagine Jesus turning round and calling you a bad name!

For Jesus to speak up like this meant He was getting quite upset by what the people were doing, especially Peter!

Christ came to save us all from our sins and was willing to lay down His life for us all. It is our lack of belief or faith which will stop us from taking this promise and making it our own.

Just take God’s Word for what it is – the simple truth – and believe it!

Psalm 119:11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.

What do you use as your ‘benchmark’ to measure your life against others?

Yes, that’s a loaded question because the answer is “don’t compare yourself to others!”

We simply need to see what God would want us to do in our lives and to act accordingly – seeking His will and His favour at all times!

Isaiah 40:1 Comfort, comfort my people, says your God.

God continues to give us messages through messengers in our lives. He continues to try and show us the right path to follow in life.

Part of that is to share the love and mercy He has shown us with the people around us.

We may think they don’t deserve it, but we are limited in what we see.

God wants us to be more like Jesus and to show the people around us the love of God in everything we do!

Psalm 138:1 I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart; before the “gods” I will sing your praise.

How far are you willing to go to show others whom your God is?

Are you willing to show other gods who God is? Will you stand up for God in front of businesspeople or royal households?

God wants you to be willing to always show others, no matter what position in society, that you praise the one true God, and Him alone.

Yes, God is a jealous God. Show Him your praise and worship Him alone.
