Do not listen to strangers

Jesus said:"My sheep hear My voice and they follow Me." Those who are born again children of God hear His voice, they listen to Him and follow Him. They do not follow after other people. Jesus said
that His sheep know His voice and they will not follow after strangers, they will run away from strangers, but many believers were never born again. They never got to know the voice of Jesus. They never followed after Him.
You get to know Him better when you follow after Him. You get to know His voice when you
seriously seek Him. In order to follow after Jesus, you must obey Him. Obey Hiswords. Repent, stop sinning, turn away from sin. Turn away from running after your own ideas and from running after other
people and go after Jesus. Obey His words. Obey Jesus ,repent and be baptized and seek Him with all your heart and He will reveal Himself to you and you will know His voice you will know Him for real. But most believers never started following Jesus. They never went after Him. They became religious. They joined a church. The only knowledge that they have of Jesus is what they've heard from others and what they have maybe read in the Bible, but they themselves do not know Jesus. They are not His sheep. They might call themselves believers, but believing in Jesus without following Him
is useless.0
We have to know Him and follow Him, and we only get to know Him if we seek Him with all our heart, because then He will reveal Himself to us. If we obey His teachings, do what He commanded. Repent and be baptized and seek Him with all our heart. He will give His Holy Spirit in us, to teach and guide us, to be with us, to teach us all things.
Most believers are tuned in to the wrong frequency. They are listening to other people. They are listening to the media. They are not listening to Jesus because they do not seek Him and they are not
tuned in to Him, and if he does speak to them they ignore Him. They don't know His voice. They do not seek Him. They are not interested in the kingdom of God . They want salvation but they don't want Jesus. They are not interested in knowing Jesus, and then is why Jesus will turn them away. He will say to them:"Go away I never knew you." Many of them are preachers. Many of them are good church people, They are busy with religion and they study the Bible and they make convicts for their church, but they themselves don't know Jesus. They do not hear His voice, they do not listen to Him. They do not follow Him.
Many of them are missionaries and they want to tell other people about Jesus, but they themselves do not know Him. They never got to know His voice. They never sought Him. They are busy with religion. They listen to strangers. They listen to what other people say. Many believers have their favorite pastors and teachers. There is only one teacher. Jesus said to His disciples:"Only one is your teacher and that is the Christ Himself."
If we follow Jesus we are taught by Him, by His Holy Spirit and we listen to Him because we know His voice. We have come to know His voice because we went after Him ,we sought Him and He revealed Himself to us. If you truly know Jesus you will listen to Him. You will hear His voice. You will not listen to other people, you won't trust them. You will only trust Jesus because you know Him. Are you one of His sheep? Do you know His voice? Do you distinguish His voice? Have you come to know Him for real, or are you running after strangers? Because then you are not one of His sheep.
If you are serious about following Jesus, about eternal life, then you will seek Him with all your heart. You will obey His words, His teachings. You will pray and you will seek Him until you find Him. You will be adamant about hearing from Him, but you will not listen to others, because you know the Master and you follow Him. You will run away from others. Do you hear His voice? Do you seek to hear His voice? Do you listen to Him? Do you follow Him and obey Him? Are you one of His sheep? May Jesus bless you.

In the world NOT OF IT

If we are born again of the Spirit of God then we are of a different kingdom, we are not of this world. We are strangers, aliens, passers through, we do not have a permanent residence in this world and we do not live like the people in this world. We have a vision of the Heavenly Kingdom, of the unseen God, our Lord and our Master, our Father whom we serve, we live for His Kingdom, not for this world and the things of this world. We do not enjoy the pleasures of this world, the pleasures of this world are passing away, the things that people run after, that they lust for and that they commit sin for are just temporary. In the end they perish with and for those things.

If we belong to Jesus Christ we are in this world as ambassadors for the kingdom of God, not because it is an effort to us but because we are not of here, we are of Jesus. We are among other people but we are not like them, we might work with them, eat with them, live among them but we have a different vision. We have a different future. Our hope is not for the things of this world but for the kingdom of God for which we labor and we bring others unto Jesus so that they can also become part of His kingdom.

Jesus said that if you are not born again of water and of the Spirit of God then you cannot see the kingdom of God, but if you have truly met Jesus and you have seen His glory, then you are changed and you just want to live for Him and be with Him, then you are not of this world any more. The pleasures and the things of this world don't make sense to you any more because you know they are passing away and you are striving for the eternal kingdom that Jesus Christ has revealed to you and in you.

Are you born again? Can you see the kingdom of God? Are you of a different kingdom or do you still belong to this world?

May Jesus bless you.  

Strangers and Aliens Peculiar People

Those who are truly born again, who follow Jesus Christ, are a DIFFERENT PEOPLE, they do not fit into this world. Even amongst their own family and their own people they are not at home. They do not have ROOTS on this earth, nowhere in the world are they at home.

They are aliens and strangers because they do not care for the things of the world. Their focus and their mind is on Jesus Christ and on doing His will. They are persecuted and rejected and people do not understand them because they ARE DIFFERENT. They do not care for the acceptance of people, neither do they care to fit in with the world but they care to be pleasing to Jesus. They care for the Kingdom of God. They do not care for convention, for the way other people do things, the worldly ways.

They care for the guidance of the Holy Spirit. All the other things do not matter to them because they have seen the Light, they KNOW Jesus Christ. They KNOW His VOICE, they LISTEN to Him and they FOLLOW Him. They are a DIFFERENT PEOPLE, a peculiar people, strangers and aliens in this world. Have you met Jesus Christ? Have you seen the Kingdom of God? Have you been changed inside? Have you become a stranger and an alien in this world even amongst your own people? Do you NOT FIT IN any more because you are fitting in to the Kingdom of God? Have you TRULY been born again? Are you a child of God and therefor not of this world any more?

May Jesus bless you.

A New Nation

If you want to have eternal life you have to become part of a NEW NATION, the Kingdom of God. You have to accept Jesus Christ as LORD, KING and MASTER and you have to SERVE HIM. You will have to GIVE UP your own identity, your country, your patriotism, your RIGHTS to yourself, totally SURRENDER YOURSELF to Jesus Christ and SERVE HIM as Lord and Master. You have to OBEY every command that He gives you. You have to be led by His Spirit and DO what He tells you to do.

You have to become part of the NEW NATION, the children of God. They are ALIENS and passers through in this world. They are IN this world but not OF this world. Their ambition is to do the WILL OF THEIR FATHER, God. They do not have any earthly ambitions. They do not seek to establish and fulfill themselves, their only purpose is to fulfill the purpose for which God wants to use them. They become like Jesus Christ who did not come to do His own will but to do the WILL OF THE FATHER. He did not say or do anything on His own initiative but everything that the Father told Him He DID and He SAID. If you are a Child of God, part of the NEW NATION, the NATION OF GOD, the KINGDOM OF GOD then you LIVE to do the will of God. If you do not LIVE FOR JESUS you will perish for sin and for your own desires.

Have you become part of the NEW NATION, are you living for Jesus Christ, for God your Father? Are you part of the Kingdom of God?

May Jesus bless you.
