DO NOT ASSUME - LISTEN OBEY AND FOLLOW JESUS

Jesus has one word for those who

believe in Him. He says: ”Follow Me.” Many believe in Jesus but
few are willing to follow Him and that is why so few will have
eternal life. Jesus said: “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them,
and they follow Me; 28and I give eternal life to them, and they
will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.”
John 10:27,28.

Many believers never become followers
of Jesus, they never become sheep, they do not hear His voice, He
does not know them and they will not have eternal life. We have to be
born again of the Spirit of God, to become His children, His sheep
who hear His voice and follow Him.

We have to receive the Holy Spirit,
that the world, the unbeliever cannot receive. Jesus gives His Holy
Spirit in those who believe in Him and therefor obey His commands and
teachings. Those who disobey Him, will not receive His Spirit, they
will not be born again and they will not become His sheep. Jesus
commanded His disciples to make disciples, He said: “Go therefore
and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of
the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20teaching them to
observe all that I commanded you;” Matthew 28:19,20.

The disciples of Jesus followed Him
until death. They physically followed Him until He was crucified,
resurrected and ascended to heaven. Before He ascended He commanded
them to wait in Jerusalem, for the Holy Spirit, Who was given on the
day of Pentecost, as we read in Acts 1&2. After receiving the
Holy Spirit, they were led by the Holy Spirit. They made disciples
who also received the Holy Spirit and were led by the Holy Spirit.

Jesus never changed. He still guides
His sheep. They hear His voice because they are born again and have
received His Holy Spirit. Most believers today have never been born
again, some have and have received the Holy Spirit but they do not
LISTEN, OBEY and FOLLOW and never get to know Jesus, neither does He
know them.

The Christendom has been deceived to
become religious, but most believers never become disciples, through
lack of understanding of the truth. If we are serious about eternal
life, we have to become disciples, who listen to Jesus and follow
Him. We must be led by the Holy Spirit.

The true children of God are led by the
Holy Spirit, not by other saints, or by their own interpretation of
the Bible. They listen to His voice and they follow Him. They do not
follow after, idolize or accept the guidance of preachers, prophets
or other men and women of God. They do not read the words of Jesus in
the Bible and assume Jesus has told them to do so. Just because Jesus
told the rich ruler to sell all his possessions, give it to the poor
and follow Him, does not mean he told you to do the same. Maybe you
are not a rich young ruler. Jesus told Peter to walk on water. Does
that mean He told you to do so? Many assume things from reading Bible
verses and listening to other believers. When things do not work out
as they expected, they blame Jesus. Do not assume things and them
blame God for your foolishness. You will only have yourself to blame.
Jesus did not tell the thief on the cross next to Him, to get down
and be baptized. Do not assume that you don’t need to obey Jesus
and be baptized in water.

Jesus does speak. His sheep hear His
voice and they obey Him, because they follow Him. Most believers do
not hear His voice, because they are not His sheep. Others ignore Him
and rather assume their own thoughts and doctrines, because they do
not want to follow Him. These are the words of God to Saul, king of
Israel: "For rebellion is as the sin of divination, And
insubordination is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have
rejected the word of the LORD, He has also rejected you from being
king." 1Samuel 15:23. Jesus does not tolerate rebellion and
disobedience. If we do not willfully follow Him, we cannot be His
disciples. If we do not follow and obey Him, we cannot expect to have
eternal life.

Do not assume, listen, obey and follow
Jesus, until the end.

May Jesus bless you.

Presumption and Holy Spirit Guidance

As born-again children of God, filled with the Holy Spirit, we have to be led by the Holy Spirit. Those who are being led by the Spirit of God they are the children of God. It is important that we know the voice of the Holy Spirit, that we listen and that we follow Him, that we go after Him and that we do not run

ahead of Him, because if we run ahead of Him we will get confused, distracted and disillusioned.

When God speaks to you, you must wait on Him for further instruction. When He reveals something to you, you must not jump to conclusions or become presumptuous, make predictions and run

after those predictions. We must follow Jesus Christ step-by-step. Jesus is not in a hurry and we should not be in a hurry ether. We should wait on Him and follow Him.

In February of 2008 I heard a voice speaking to me twice the same night; He said to me "Jesus is coming, are you ready?"

I went to sleep and a few hours later I woke up again after hearing the voice saying to me:"Jesus is coming, are you ready?"

I got the fright of my life and I thought that Jesus was coming any moment. I called my family and I warned everybody that I came across because I assumed that Jesus was about to come any moment.

Did Jesus say that? No He only said "Jesus is coming, are you ready?" Since that time Jesus has come for many people. Many people have died without Jesus and He might come for some others today; they might also die today and then Jesus has come for them. It was eight years ago that I heard those words and then I thought that Jesus was coming immediately, it would be

the end of time.

I'm thankful that I was wrong in my assumption because I've  learned so much since those years. I have been able to witness and bring many others to Jesus. I have learned so much more in those years, my relationship with Jesus has become so much closer. I'm glad that I was wrong in my assumption. Since that time Jesus has spoken to me many times and told me things, but I have learned not to jump to conclusions, not to be presumptuous, but to wait on Him when He speaks to me and when He reveals something to me I pray about it and I wait on Him. He will reveal more to me if He so wishes but His command to me is to follow Him one day, one step at a time, and not to run ahead of Him, not to be presumptuous, not to make predictions.

Nobody knows what will happen today or tomorrow. We have this moment and we have this day and we must live this day to please Jesus Christ. The future is in the hands of Jesus and He is in control. He knows what He is doing and He only reveals to us what we need to know to do His will, today. If He speaks to us we must listen. If He commands us to do something we must do it and not presume or assume things, we must not make predictions, but we must follow the Master every day, one step at a time then

we will never be deceived, we will never be disappointed, because our expectation is not what we thought or hoped that would happen; our expectation is Jesus Christ and our desire is to do His will and be pleasing to Him today, and every day that He gives us. Do not run ahead of Jesus. Wait on Him and follow Him step by step, then you will never be disappointed, you will

never be disillusioned, because Jesus is God. Be still and know that Jesus is God, and that He is in control.

Trust Him and stay with Him; do not run ahead of Him

May Jesus bless you.

Most Christians PRESUME THEY ARE SAVED

Most Christians have FALSE SECURITY because they believe they are saved based on what other people say. They base their faith on the Bible and what other people tell them but they have no relationship with Jesus Christ, they do not know Him. They are FOOLISHLY PRESUMPTUOUS. They think that they will go to heaven, they think that they will have eternal life but they don't know Jesus Christ.

If you don't know Jesus and He does not know you, you will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven. You have to OBEY THE WORDS THAT JESUS SPOKE, the message that He gave us and then HE WILL REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU, you will KNOW HIM FOR REAL. You have to turn away from sin, go on your knees and cry out to Jesus for forgiveness of your past sin, cry out to Him to ACCEPT you and He will REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU, He will give you peace in your heart and you will KNOW THAT YOU HAVE BEEN WITH THE LIVING GOD. Then OBEY Him, be baptized in water for the washing off of your sin, purify yourself of all unrighteousness, BE HOLY, BE PURE, BE OBEDIENT to Jesus Christ. Ask Him and He will give His Holy Spirit to dwell in you, to TEACH you, to GUIDE you, to SPEAK TO YOU, to confirm to you that He is pleased with you. Then you will not live by PRESUMPTION, then you will not believe based on what other people say but you will believe based on your relationship with Jesus Christ and hearing from Him FIRST HAND.

Do you know Jesus and does He know you? Do you know His voice and do you follow Him? His sheep LISTEN to His VOICE and they FOLLOW Him.

Jesus is coming. Are you ready?
