LIVING FOR JESUS

²⁰ My soul breaketh for the longing that it hath unto thy judgments at all times.

Psalm 119:20 King James Version (KJV)

Understanding what JESUS did on the cross, was not just for a moment but forever. I used to think the pierced sides, hands and feet were only for the crucifixion, that all that would have been healed when JESUS resurrected! I found out in John 20 that JESUS bears those marks till date, when HE appeared to the disciples and made sure Thomas could see and feel them…. I exclaimed within me that why did the marks still remain and that HE could have healed HIMSELF, and be the person HE was before HE came. JESUS said to me then it will all be a joke not having these marks on HIS body, there will be no evidence of the ultimate price been paid!

²⁷ Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

²⁸ And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.

John 20:27-28

Well I have still not gotten over it, how is it possible that the marks still remain till date? A KING, came to earth, paid a price and still bears the marks of sinners which HE had to do to save us! It was not a role playing act, like JESUS came to do some undercover work and now the captives are free and HE can now go back to live HIS normal life. A ROYAL still has the sinners marks on HIM!

²¹ For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

2 Corinthians 5:21 King James Version (KJV)

Knowing GOD more!

¹⁹ I am a stranger in the earth: hide not thy commandments from me.

Psalm 119:19 King James Version (KJV)

When all you want is GOD…. Its high time you really need to know what is in GOD’S heart…. You need to know what HE really wants for you that’s very vital for you as a Christian.

²² And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.

Acts 13:22 King James Version (KJV)

GOD uses people who are after HIS heart, when you are after HIS heart to know and do is will concerning anything is no big deal! People pray for a lot of things that usually come easy to a lot of people live totally for HIM!

³³ But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Matthew 6:33 King James Version (KJV)

Thirst for a better relationship before GOD

¹⁸ Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.

Psalm 119:18 King James Version (KJV)

                                                                                                                                                                 

It is very awkward for baby to never want its mother anymore! For that is the only place it can receive its nutrients, its sustenance in life comes from its mother’s bosom, it will be very strange for the child to totally ignore its mother…

¹⁶ For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

¹⁷ And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

¹⁸ And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

¹⁹ For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;

²⁰ And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

Colossians 1:16-20 King James Version (KJV)

It is very weird in the eyes of GOD that people try to live each day without HIM, when HE is the author and finisher of everything in life. The hunger and thirst of something to satisfy the burning desire to satisfy one’s life will always be in the heart.

² Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Hebrews 12:2 King James Version (KJV)

Your life is up to GOD…..

¹⁷ Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live, and keep thy word.

Psalm 119:17 King James Version (KJV)

How do we address the phrase “A fulfilled life”? Well people say achieving all your dreams and ambitions, attaining all your goals….. The truth it is not about getting your heart desires done, but allowing GOD to take the lead….

When you are really in love with a person, you really careless what the person does to you, you just want to be with the person… Well some people will have to care, (trying to be real!!).. No one is perfect like GOD so there will be some faults you will care about…..

¹⁷ Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.

Luke 18:17 King James Version (KJV)
