Revelation 1:3 Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near.
How did you get to believe in Jesus? Did you not hear someone talking about Him?
God wants everyone to have the chance at hearing the good news of the gospel…
Which means we need to tell people!
2 Thessalonians 3:6 In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers and sisters, to keep away from every believer who is idle and disruptive and does not live according to the teaching you received from us.
I really struggle with words like this…
I want to be the one who reaches down and helps someone out of a pit…
If we are careful and make sure we listen to God, this should not be a thing!
Psalm 112:5 Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely, who conduct their affairs with justice.
When was the last time you helped someone out?
Did you help them willingly or was it under duress?
What would you do if Jesus would only help you under duress?
Luke 17:33 Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it.
One of the greatest things a person can do is to lay down their life for others; this shows the ultimate love for one another!
Sometimes we think too much of ourselves instead of the people around us and we hurt them without knowing.
God wants us to share the love but also remember what has gone before us.
