Every day we make decisions on various things, but within the day do we stop and wonder if what we’re doing is pleasing to God? Does including God in our day make a difference? It matters to God! There are some who do not even think of him for days on end. We see this when God is pleading with his children to return to him! “O generation, see ye the word of the Lord. Have I been a wilderness unto Israel? a land of darkness? wherefore say my people, We are lords; we will come no more unto thee?Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet my people have forgotten me days without number”.
(Jeremiah 2:31,32).
We are hated because we do not bend to what the world views as right and we full well know it is wrong. Best example we have today is a President passing off the sin of homosexuality and we are to love what God clearly states is an abomination in his eyes. YES! we are to love one another and this is true, but we are not to love the sinful life for this is what Christ died on the cross to give us freedom from and not a better way to love our sin! The word of God is not evil, but when his people speak it they are taken as offending someone. “These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me”.(John 16:1-3).
When we set our mind on what is pleasing to God we have no struggle of right and wrong, Jesus was looked down upon when he stood his ground in showing God’s teaching of his house of prayer that the merchants were trying to turn into a den of thieves…… Jesus loved many, yet would not stand by silent when he saw his Fathers place being used as something opposite of a place of prayer. “And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee. And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money changers, and the seats of them that sold doves, And said unto them, It is written, my house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves”.(Matthew 21:11-13).
To have the mindset of the way of the world and constantly strive to get the worlds goods will take our eyes off of the whole purpose Christ died to gather his people to himself for.We are to look for the kingdom coming and not concentrate on all that exists presently and know how temperal and fleeting life truly is. The saying nothing is forever holds true, because no matter how great and wonderful our lives are at times, nothing can compare to the true riches of the kingdom we await that was bought and paid for out of love by our Saviour. “(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.). For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ”.
(Philippians 3:18-20).
The Kingdom of God is within us, But the time is coming when the entire world will be filled with the glory of the Lord! What a beautiful promise we look forward to when we are a living sacrifice while here and one day will live in a world with no more divisions, Just peace and joy serving the one we lived our life for!

It is VERY important to know who we serve.I just watched a video of christian guy going for an hour about how sexual immorality is pretty ok and that it doesnt hurt God if he sleeps with any woman he wants to.I was shaking my head throughout the whole vid.That’s not a real repentance.We cannot serve BOTH God and demons.
God bless true christians
