Jesus Challenged Us
“what do you mean that you want it all, we haven’t got enough for ourselves’
Abandon it all to gain it all. Jesus challenged us. His words were SHARP. He said... ’he that loveth his life shall lose it: and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto eternity’. John 12:25.
He gave it all to gain it ALL.
He is ASKING YOU FOR A DRINK John 4:7... Think about that... When you are so thirsty. When it's so oppressive in the heat of the day. Do you think it’s because God has a need... He is the God of the universe. The CREATOR of ALL THINGS. I think it;s just an ICE BREAKER in your conversation with Him... He wants to chat He wants to Heal!!!
Give Him from what is important to you, it shows how much you really love Him.
He responds to sacrifice. He is not looking for lots of material things, but your HEART... Your best.
Gideon was hiding what little he did have and one chat with the creator caused him to give up even what he did have. Elisha was ploughing and he gave up all to follow Elijah.
Be careful not to be cynical. Don’t say... ‘but I have heard it all’. Don’t be like the elder brother and despise what God wants to do. You will get as much as you dare. BE A CHEERFUL GIVER.
IF GOD IS SAYING GO FORWARD WHEN WE ARE ASKING QUESTIONS WE CAN ASSUME THAT HE IS RIGHT... HE IS ALWAYS RIGHT... HE KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING.
Now is a time not to protect what little you have but to abandon even that.
We are living in days when obedience is the route to the healing that we have longed for.
