Many things we do innocently and naturally look not offensive to us, but to God they are. Nowadays we are so insensitive to God and His likes and dislikes, which should be our first priority to please Him, and end up planning all our activities inside church and outside in our personal lives only to please us and each other. That is why we got to check ourselves and know whether we are standing righteous in the sight of God or falling away not even realising it. “Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware that all our fathers were under the cloud, all passed through the sea, all were baptised into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, all ate the same spiritual food, and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ. But with most of them God was not well pleased, for their bodies were scattered in the wilderness.” 1 Corinthians 10:1-5 (NKJV)

All These Things Shall Be Added To You
Big lessons we all should learn in the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ, as in every teaching there is a part we have to play to receive the blessings attached to it. We cannot just claim our blessings alone and ignore the instructions that we have to do. There is a major part we got to obey before we get to receive any blessings that are kept for us from God. Jesus said that His Father knows that you need all these things to live in this world, but first you have to seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness then all these things shall be added to you. But people do the opposite; they seek after the worldly things, get so busy and do some self-righteous, religious activities to appease God. Whereas we have to go after the Kingdom of God and His gift of righteousness first, only then these worldly things Our Father will add supernaturally.
The Love Of God Our Saviour Appeared Towards Man
Mankind do not have anything good in them until the kindness and the love of God appeared as our Saviour in Jesus Christ. Whatever morality, law and order that are in the world now are all because of the teachings of Jesus and the wisdom they found in the way He showed through love and compassion toward man. Jesus is the God and the Saviour who now pours out His Holy Spirit on all flesh abundantly to all who asks, so that all will be made righteous by His grace and become heirs of eternal life. This privilege is available to all who seek God diligently through Jesus Christ and let no one settle down receiving meagre earthly things alone and lose eternity.
Some People’s Unbelief Will Not Affect God’s Truth
Those who say they believe in one God also do not believe the truth of God’s Word. Will the truth become a lie if some people do not believe? Of course not! Someone’s belief has got nothing to do with the faithfulness of God. Let God be true and every man a liar. Those days people thought the world is flat, but later the truth is known it is a globe. Bible, The Word of God says, “He(God) stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth on nothing. He binds up the water in His thick clouds, Yet the clouds are not broken under it. He covers the face of His throne, And spreads His cloud over it.” Job 26:7-9 (NKJV) Medically man came to know lately that the life of a man is in the blood. “For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.’” Leviticus 17:11 (NKJV) Like these many true statements are in the Bible before mankind could use their five senses and then have to believe.
Lord Jesus Christ Became Poor For Us To Become Rich
The Cross is the answer for all our needs and removal of all our problems. Lord Jesus Himself took our sin, sickness, pain, shame, curse and poverty on the Cross to set us free from all, if we believe His finished work and receive by faith whatever our need may be. For this we should know the Word of God very well and believe in our hearts all that is concerned our needs to receive them in our lives. We should meditate and confess the Word of God which becomes effective prayer to receive the blessings without fail. And be a blessing to many by having a mentality to share with others, who would be in need amongst ourselves.
Lord Jesus Christ Is The Blessed And Only Potentate
Our God is sovereign and He is in control of all the things happening in the world. It is God who appoints country leaders and people in authority. He decides whom to place above or to step one down. But God is not in control of individual lives of the people. He gives free will for everyone to choose. Whatever we are experiencing individually is not from God. Therefore everyone’s responsibility is to choose life and not death connected things. “I urge you in the sight of God who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus who witnessed the good confession before Pontius Pilate, that you keep this commandment without spot, blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ’s appearing, which He will manifest in His own time, He who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of Lords, who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see, to whom be honour and everlasting power. Amen.” 1 Timothy 6:13-16 (NKJV)
Blessed Is He Who Is Not Offended By Jesus
Jesus touched the whole world generations to come in one way or other. Most of the people on earth heard about Jesus and His teachings and were impressed. Equally all of them thought Jesus is a great man or superman, but never accepted Him as God’s Son even though He exhibited God kind of Love and power no man could ever come even close to that kind of behaviour and character. Some got offended by Jesus’ purity and compassion He showed to sick, poor and sinners. Blessed are those who were touched by the power of the Holy Spirit through the grace and mercy of God and saw Jesus as their Lord and Saviour to give their lives for Him as martyrs.
Christ Jesus Came To Give Dead People Life
People do not know the life Christ Jesus came to give for those who believe in Him and the One, Father God, who sent Him. “And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.”John 17:3 (NKJV) Many settled for very least of the blessings as money of this world’s currencies and the things that can buy. In the Kingdom of God money is considered unrighteous mammon — material wealth or greed and the least of all the things. ““And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by unrighteous mammon, that when you fail, they may receive you into an everlasting home. He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much. Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?” Luke 16:9-11 (NKJV) So let go off the material life and pursue the spiritual, eternal, abundant, peaceful and immortal life Jesus came to give to all who are dead in many ways.
Do Not Be Unbelieving But Believing
How many of us read the Bible and believe all that is said there is true? We all will say yes, I believe. But just having the head knowledge of what is written does not mean you believe. Whereas we have to believe from the heart to things to manifest in our lives. Many believe the Lord does miracles even now, but very few expect miracles from their heart to receive. Thomas was corrected by Jesus saying that he should believe without seeing any evidence of Jesus’ resurrection from the dead. Even we, Christians are to be corrected now to believe in Jesus saying, “Do not be unbelieving but believing” and expect miracles in our day to day life and be blessed by the Lord God, who is able and willing.
We Regard No One According To The Flesh
What is born again experience? That all were born in this world have the sinful nature of Adam, the first man in the blood and the spirit is dead, so could not have any contact with God. That is why all flesh got to be born again in the Spirit by accepting Jesus, the last man, as Lord and Saviour by His pure sinless blood: that our spirit being might come alive to have close relationship with God. Now born again spirit needs spiritual food, the Word of God as new born babies. Then spirit got to grow and mature by exercising in putting the Word of God into practice. Changes should happen in the soul while you grow to think and decide as your spirit is instructing and not the flesh. Flesh got to be crucified with Jesus and that is why we should not regard no one according to flesh anymore.
