God’s love can enable you to live out your life as a love song to Jesus!

12/6/2017

And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. Deuteronomy 10:12 NKJV

These words were spoken to the children of Israel. God desired their worship and obedience. The Lord wanted Israel to love Him with all of their hearts and souls.

God is revealing the same unchanging truth to you today.

In biblical times the children of Israel were the people of God. Today all people who call on the name of Jesus are the people of God. People who live in submission to Jesus are God’s children. God has the same desires for us He had for the children of Israel.

Jesus desires your worship and obedience today. He wants you to love Him with all of your heart and soul today!

How can we love God with all of our hearts and souls? How can we love God who is invisible when we have such a hard time loving our neighbors whom we see so often?

The revelation of God’s love enables us to live our lives as a love song to Jesus. God’s great love enables us to worship and obey Him. The reality of God’s love transforms us into people who love God with all of our hearts and souls!

The Christian life is a journey. There is much God wants to teach us and show us. He wants to do great and mighty things in us and through us. It all begins with the revelation that Jesus loves us. It continues with the revelation that God desires our love!

It is easy to become distracted by the fast pace of life. It is easy to become distracted by difficult circumstances or living a life of prosperity. We can become frustrated trying to live the Christian life in our own strength and wisdom!

We are all guilty of taking our eyes off of Jesus from time to time.

The Lord is waiting for you to fall in love with Him all over again. Jesus is waiting for you to love Him with all of your heart and with all of your soul!

Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!

Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune telling. This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.” And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out that very hour. Acts 16:16-18 NKJV

The slave girl was speaking the truth. She was possessed by an evil spirit. The evil spirit was drawing people away from Christ!

This attack came as God’s servants went to prayer. The enemy of our souls attacks when we step out in faith. Satan seeks to distract us. He wants us to focus our attention on things other than Jesus.

The devil perverts the truth. He uses it against us. No one can serve two masters. This girl was speaking the truth about Paul and his companions while practicing witchcraft. When people claim to speak for God we must consider how they live.

The girl followed the disciples for several days before they cast the demon out of her. It is important for us to wait on the Lord before stepping out in faith. The bible tells us Paul was greatly annoyed by this girl. Paul was not fearful. The Lord was with Him!

Paul and Silas were put in jail. The owners of the slave girl were angry at the loss of income when the demon was cast out of her. While Paul and Silas were in jail they shared the gospel with the jailer. His entire household was saved.

God uses Satan’s attacks for His glory and our salvation!

Satan is a real being. He takes people captive to do his will. There really are demons who seek to destroy God’s people and bring destruction to our world.

We have nothing to fear from the devil or his demons when we live according to God’s will. We have nothing to fear from anyone or anything when we step out in faith to serve Jesus!

Jesus wants us to fear Him and Him alone. He wants us to know His power and authority are unequaled in all of creation.

God wants you share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the people in your life. Jesus wants you to walk in great boldness because He is with you everywhere you go!

Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!

God’s love can enable you to live out your life as a love song to Jesus!
