Text: Mathew 8:19(KJV)
Acertain
scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou
goest.
Do you know
many are with the Master very closely but are not earnestly following his ways
based on their exposures? We need a walk with JESUS in a time like this. Let us
allow him to lead us because he knows the way out of that wilderness of today. John14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and
the life: no one comes to the father but by me. We need to be resolute
about our following Jesus in the path He has set for us because the alternatives
are very costly in all ramifications. Friends, many believers have different
choices and reasons to make as they journey with Christ. Like Daniel 1:8 But
Daniel purposes in his heart that he would not defile himself with portion of
the kings meat, nor with the wine which he drank: ... Our kingdom
service requires a lot of personal determination if we must choose to service
Jesus. We need to get to the point of
being steadfastly minded if we must follow Jesus. There are several things that are out there
to distract us.
Interesting,
we should put our hands in his hands as to allow him lead. This decision came
to the scribe suddenly without consideration according to our text today. .
Remember, he knows that Jesus has no place to lay his head but he still took
that decision to be with the Master. Maybe he has heard about all the miracles
Jesus has wrought in the city. Can you earnestly think deep to take this
singularly step of faith and life changing adventure of your destiny by going
all the way with Jesus and dropping all alternatives? It requires focus. Ruth
did it and forsook her mate Orpah to follow her purpose. We can see the end
result of that particular decision on the genealogy of Jesus. I encourage us to
be unmovable because our labour is not in vain in Jesus name.
PRAYER POINT:
1. Oh Lord, may we
receive the grace to follow Jesus as the only way to our glorious destiny in Jesus name.
ACTION QUOTE:
Friends, can you stand for Jesus even before
persecutors and gang ups? GRACE LORD.
