Stand now for something (2020)

-

 
I know thy works, that that neither cold nor hot: I wood thou wert cold or hot. Revelation 3:15

in life you must choose where you belong; you must stand for something or you'll fall for everything. that is a dangerous position of instability. such a person cannot leave a fruitful life our Text says "thou art neither cold nor hot" Adam clanks commentary explain this by saying "yea are neither heathens nor Christians neither good nor evil neither LED away by by false doctrine, nor throughly addicted to that which is true." such a person does not stand a chance of making it to heaven. the early Greek philosopher epicletus said "thou oughtest to be one kind of man either a good man or a bad man."



 A spiritually lakewarm person is hard to reach for Christ as he feels rather comfortable and self-reliant. if you are spiritually hot or cold, God can do something meaningful with you but nothing if lukewarm. the hot are the truly saved believers,  fervent for God. the cold are the unbelievers who needs Jesus and can be saved but the lukewarm people pretend to believe in Jesus but not practically. where do you stand today?


Challenge: choose you this day whom you will serve 


Prayer
Oh god help me to make my commitment to your firm.


Further reading: Romans 12:11 and Matthew 10:42


Stay blessed..

    Young people who wants to remain virgins till marriage, you must hear this before you continue.    A man gave his two friends a gift to give to one another secretly without letting one know that the other has a gift. But one friend ate his gift while the other didn't; so when it was time to present their gifts to one another the first gave his to his companion but his companion had nothing to offer. This made the man sad and displeased.      This story has a moral lesson. " don't eat a gift that belongs to your friend". You can say what your moral lesson is in the comment box.

What a young boy did when his mom was dying (make sure to read to the end of the story). It all started on a sunday morning. My little brother and I were preparing for church when we heard a noise down stairs. When i came down i saw mom laying on the floor; she was breathing heavily.  I asked dad to tell me what he had done to her but he didn't give me an answer,instead, he cleaned himself and soon he was already leaving to church, leaving us behind to care for our mom.  We tried to make her stand up  but she didn't even have the strength to talk. I left the house to find help, i ran as fast as i could to my aunt's house but she had already gone to church. Crying home a man called me; he asked me why i was crying, And i told him that my mom was sick and that she's dying. Immediately after saying those words he got in his car and asked me to take him to our house.    He took my mom to the hospital where she was treated. The doctor said that she would have died if we came
