The Perfect Man

The first man Adam was a failure. He was supernaturally created by God and put into perfect conditions, perfect surroundings, Paradise. Yet he disobeyed God and because of that he perished. He was removed from the presence of God and after that all men were descendants of Adam.

Jesus Christ was naturally born into a corrupt and imperfect world but He perfectly obeyed God His Father. He was rejected, persecuted and killed. He did not fit into this world. He was the PERFECT MAN and He became the Savior of this world.

Jesus Christ was God Himself manifested in imperfect flesh to demonstrate that it is possible to be perfect in imperfect surroundings. Jesus Christ was perfected through suffering and ALL those who wish to follow Him will also be perfected through suffering, through following Him and OBEYING God the Father PERFECTLY in imperfect surroundings.

Are you willing to follow Jesus Christ and be perfected through suffering or are you looking for excuses like Adam who was born into perfect surroundings and circumstances but he disobeyed God? Those who follow Jesus will be perfected through suffering.

May Jesus bless you.

The Word of God is Active Sharp Living

The writer of Hebrews writes in Hebrews 4:12,13:”For the WORD OF GOD is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and ABLE TO JUDGE THE THOUGHTS AND INTENTIONS OF THE HEART. And there is no creature hidden from His SIGHT, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.”

The Word of God IS Jesus Christ, when He speaks to you it cuts you to the bone. It unsettles you, it brings you on your knees, it disrupts your life, it makes you realize that you are NOTHING, that you are in the presence of the living God. “Man shall not live from bread alone but from every WORD that proceeds from the MOUTH OF GOD.” That is for those who LISTEN, who TAKE HEED AND and who FEAR God.

Many people do not fear God. They apply the scriptures to their liking and they live as THEY please but they don't know God. When God speaks to you IT CUTS YOU, IT DISRUPTS YOU, IT DESTROYS YOU but it builds you into that which God wants you to be. Most believers do not know God. They do not know His voice. They do not follow Him.

Jesus said:”My sheep LISTEN to My voice and they FOLLOW Me.” Most believers do not LISTEN to Jesus because they do not know His voice. They are not His sheep. They do not know the ONE with whom they have to do but we will all stand before His throne. If we do not recognize and KNOW His voice right now, if we do not FEAR Him and OBEY Him it will be a fateful day when we stand before Him and He says:”Go away I never knew you, you workers of wickedness.” Then those words will cut you for ever and for eternity. It is better to LISTEN to Jesus RIGHT NOW, to go on your knees and to seek Him, to say:”Speak Lord, Your servant is LISTENING.”

Are you LISTENING to the words of Jesus? Are those words piercing you, cutting you, disrupting your life, and sending you where He wants to? Are those words directing you and using you as an instrument for the Kingdom of God or are you following after your own pleasure. Do you HEAR the Word of God?

May Jesus bless you.
