The word for today is - Focus!

Good morning,

The word for today is - Focus!

 

When it comes to spiritual growth, most of us know it requires focus, dedication, devotion, and sustained effort. The word tells us in Matthew 6:24,No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.God gives us away out. Move forward.  Philippians 3:13, 14, "Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. We need to get in a place with God, to say that neither height nor death nor angles nor demons, anything or anyone "can separate me from the love of Christ. Why do we go to the house of God?  To worship the Lord . And what?  Focus on Him.   When we get sidetracked and think about everything and everybody around us, that is, losing focus.  Our everyday walk can be off., if everything we're doing  is for people and nothing for Christ then this is losing focus.  Some people are doing to many things at one time that's not good. Why do we need to stay focused? God has a plan for our life. It's a perfect plan. So,  if God has a perfect plan for us, we need to ask ourself , "am I fulfilling God's perfect plan?"  If not ,are you getting off track? Are you for getting the things behind you and going forward? The bible says, "He whom the son sets free is free indeed."  Let's look  in the Scriptures, Jesus stated, “Who hath ears to hear, let him hear… in Romans 10:17 which states, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.” We have to have time for God everyday. Why look at Isaiah 5:13,14 which says, “Therefore my people are gone into captivity, (why?) because they have no knowledge... therefore hell has Enlarged  herself, and opened her mouth without measure:...” why? because man rejected knowledge hell enlarged herself   The word says study, 2 Timothy 2:15, Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Thank you God for your word. Amen !
