Another good speaker last Sunday. Joey Stewart started his sermon from Matthew, Chapter 28 by relating it to an army. He said that when the command is given to army recruits to jump or crawl, they do not ask how low or how high. The recruits just jump as high or crawl as low as they can, because that might be their only means of survival. How do we obey in God’s Army? Do we ask, “how high or how low” or do we just react as we should? It could make a change, not only in our life but in the lives of others as well. Our survival for eternity depends on our belief in God and for others to reap the same benefit. WE MUST BE IN GOD’S ARMY. We must witness and teach His love to others. Jesus died for us and all we have to do is claim Him. We must meet none-believers on their level, no matter how high or how low and love them unconditionally as Jesus does.
Brother Stewart preached about Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing on Wednesday night from Matthew Chapter 7. He said that because our church is definitely in a time of new beginning, we should test the spirit of those who serve. It is so important for us to know what is being taught to our youth and adults. We need to stand firm on our beliefs that Jesus is our Lord and Savior. We need to be bold about giving our testimony and about asking others about their beliefs.
As I read somewhere this week: God won’t ask the square footage of our house. He’ll ask how many people we welcomed into our home. God won’t ask why it took so long to seek salvation. He will lovingly take us to our mansion in heaven and not to the gates of hell. Never give up on anyone as God never gave up on me.
