THE 14th OF NOVEMBER
THE SOONER WE RETURN TO THE LORD, THE BETTER
Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, before the difficult days come, and the years draw near when you say, “I have no pleasure in them” – Ecclesiastes 12:1
Someone may say that it is better for them to enjoy their life while young and they will come to God in their later years. But these are just lies of the enemy, to think that life with Jesus is not a happy life and to get one to postpone their salvation moment until there is no other chance to do it. None of us can be sure when we will leave this earth. It is time to seriously check our spiritual condition and make all the changes or adjustments needed to be done, so that we would be truly right-standing with God.
Being right with God is the best place to be and we need to never forget that we are not our own, we belong to God. He created us and His Son died in our place to redeem us. If we choose the so called “pleasures of this life,” instead of obeying God, the price is very high and the longer we wait to decide to repent and follow Jesus, the less chances we have to be willing to do it. If we choose to follow the lusts of our flesh, instead of living right for God, we will be empty handed at the end and eternally damned.
SUGGESTED PRAYER
Heavenly Father, please search my heart and show me what I need to remove or change. Please forgive me for all the years that I believed the lies of the enemy and tried to follow the desires of my carnal nature. Thank You Lord that since I totally surrendered to You, I found true happiness. I want so much to please You Father God, please help me to do it. The peace, joy and strength that come from You are real, long lasting and have no bad side effects. Thank You Lord for adopting me to sonship. In the Name of Jesus I pray. Amen.
