Many Tribulations

To be saved and follow Jesus is not an easy road. That is why so few follow Jesus. Many believe they are saved but they are not willing to follow Jesus, endure persecustion and suffer trials and tribulations.

The apostle Paul was stoned, dragged out of the city, left for dead and then he got up and walked to the next city where he kept on preaching. We read in Acts 14:21 "After they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch, 22strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to continue in the faith, and saying, “Through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.” Acts 14:21

Paul wrote in Romans 5:1 "Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God. 3And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; 4and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; 5and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us."

If we follow Jesus and do what is pleasing to Him we will suffer many trials and tribulations. We have to endure with Jesus and not give up. The apostle James wrote in James 1:12 "Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him."

Are we enduring with Jesus? Are we staying faithful to Him through our trials and tribulations?

May Jesus bless you.

Special Assignment

Jesus Christ who is also God Almighty, the One through Whom and by Whom all things were created, the One who holds all things together by His power, invites us to GET TO KNOW Him, to FOLLOW Him and to go on a SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT with Him, so that we can GET TO KNOW HIM, so that we can be part of His Kingdom.

Jesus does not just call us to save us. He calls us to become part of the Household of God. We can only get to KNOW Him if we go WITH Him, if we FOLLOW Him. He will take us on a SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT that He has prepared for us. He will take us through the valleys and over the mountains. He will take us through GOOD TIMES ind BAD TIMES, through difficulties but He will never leave us and He will never forsake us, and through our trials and tribulations and through the challenges that we face and overcome with Him because we follow Him, through those things we will get to KNOW HIM.

Very few people get to KNOW Jesus Christ because very few are willing to FOLLOW Him. Very few are willing to go on that assignment with Jesus Christ so that they can become closely acquainted with Him, so that they can learn to TRUST Him, so that they can learn to ENDURE and PERSEVERE, and be approved as sons of God.

Most believers just want FIRE INSURANCE. They don't want to go to hell but they don't want Jesus ether. They would rather spend their life studying the Bible and being religious than to TRULY get to know the King of kings and the Lord of lords. They do not want to go WITH HIM, they don't want to WORK FOR HIM; they want to enjoy THEIR lives, they want to have A LIFE, ENJOY LIFE go after the lusts of their flesh and then in the end they want Jesus to accept them.

If we are not willing to go WITH JESUS through the ups and the downs we will never get to know Him. If we are not willing to forsake our own desires, our own plans and our own ambitions and go after Him we are not worthy of Him, we will never get to know Him. And He will say to so many believers who thought they were saved, He will say to them:”Go away I never knew you, you workers of wickedness.” All because they would not go with Him, they would not FOLLOW Him and they would not go on that Special Assignment that He prepared for them.

Are you willing to go WITH JESUS all the way until the end so that you can truly get to know Him?

May Jesus bless you.
