MY FRIENDS, HOW DIFFERENT ARE WE FROM THE ONE WHO SAYS THERE IS NO GOD?

MY FRIENDS, HOW DIFFERENT ARE WE FROM THE ONE WHO SAYS THERE IS NO GOD?

“Let our light so shine before men and women, that they will always see our good works, as we glorify our Father which is in heaven.” Matt. 5:16 (KJV) Or do we blend in with our surroundings like the Chameleon who changes with the environment.

The Color change signals a chameleon’s physiological condition and intentions to other chameleons, the darker colors indicate when they have decided to submit or “give up” in other words the enemy has now convinced us, compromise is a good, why should we be the odd person in the group. We only live once.

At that moment, we allow ourselves to be “tossed to and fro by the waves of doubt, carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness and deceitful schemes” of the enemy Ephesians 4:14 (ESV) and now the world seems more appealing then a relationship with God.

Nothing about our life should tell the world that this is our permanent residence and that we would compromise our Christian values for the things of this earth that will one pass away for what is prepared For God’s faithful in the earth made new.

A place no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man could ever imagined, the home God has prepared for those who love him” and have decided that we will keep all of His commandments, not just the one’s we feel want interfere with our life style.

Today let’s look back over our life and see where God has brought us from in each situation and circumstances and now it’s personal again. Because we can not go any farther until God becomes real to you and I as we continue to ask, who God is, and what He means to our life personally.

Remember we only have but a short period of probation, from birth to death in which to prepare for God’s kingdom. At birth The god of this world immediately begin to shift our brain activity from what Christ wants.

And then he begin to keep our focus on all the things of this world which is “associated with susceptibility, suggestibility and a unfocused state of mind which lacks the motivation of knowing, perceiving,” or remembering the things God deems beneficial for our salvation. So friends how different is that from the one who says there is no God?

It’s personal because our God is a personal God, And we must recognize today “we have all sinned and  falling short of the honor and glory of God” But the good news is, in spite of our failures at times and “all we can see is the struggles Haunted by the ghosts that lived in our past.”

Unlike the Chameleon who changes with the environment who submits or “gives up” We must decide we “will not be bought or sold; we will be ambassadors for God who in our inmost souls we will be  true and honest; who will not fear to call sin by its right name; whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole; who will stand for the right though the heavens fall.”(E.G. White)

My friends focus, and then ask yourself do my friends family love ones, co-workers, neighbor’s, and the world recognize a sharp contrast between one of God’s chosen and the world. And are the fruit of God’s Spirit firmly embedded into my life and is there a vast difference between my life and the one that “says in his heart, there is no god.”

Every excuse we may give as the reason we cannot serve Christ, was challenged and answered at Calvary.
