Some People Just Never Learn

 

    Some people just never learn what life is really about.  They refuse to except a different way of living life that will bring internal and eternal peace.  Some people refuse to accept Jesus for who He is and start a real relationship.  This is eternity we are talking about.  It is the only relationship that will never die.  It is the only relationship that will remove loneliness, disappointment, hurt, shame, or void within.  It is the only relationship that will give your soul life.

    The world hold a lot of influence in your life.  Influence holds power.  As a Christian it is important to make sure that you are in God's Word everyday, so that you can recognize the influence of the world versus the influence of God.  How can you follow God when you are being deceived by the world?

    People that hold power in the world will wield it in whatever way that they want.  That does not mean that it can hold power over every aspect of your life.  You can be a puppet or you can be free.  It is your choice.  You need to know when people are manipulating your or you will be a puppet.

    Some people just refuse to learn these lessons.  They are not selective in whom they get information from or whom they give information too.  It is gossip if you spread information in hopes of hurting someone or spreading the news from someone who hopes to influence certain events.  It is foolish behavior to believe everything you hear and then spread it.  You need to do your due diligence before talking about it with anyone, if you ever do.

    Be careful in whom you take counsel from.  Do not mistake the advise of the world as God's will or wisdom.  You are a steward of God, if you listen to the wrong people then you will be a bad steward with what God has entitled you to take care of: your life, family, animals, the earth, money, and possessions.  You need to pray for God's will to lead you in all these aspects.  This is how you follow God instead of the influences of the world.

    Do you know what you want in life?  You will never really find peace in your heart, accomplishment, or true joy until you know what you heart and soul want and need.  You will never really do what you want to do until you allow God to lead you.  People will tell you all sorts of things, but God will always tell you the truth and then confirm it.  

    It is time to stop talking and moving around aimlessly.  It is time to to listen to God.  Life has a broad spectrum of thoughts, ideas, inspiration, and opinions.  However God is the only one that can really help you narrow that down to direction.  Listening to Him will make decision making easier.

    Do not trust people just because they refer to God.  People manipulate God's Word (like Satan) to use it for their own purpose.  This is wrong and if you follow them, then it will lead you to loss of finances, family, possession, and possibly life.  Following false prophets will lead to eternal death.  

    Learn God's Word for yourself.  Pray over it.  Allow it to speak to your heart and you will hold the spiritual power of wisdom.  You will start having influence.  You will start to be able to detect the lies.  It will give you discernment to sense people's true intent.  Be willing to stand out to follow Jesus through anything.  It is more important to follow Him than it is to be popular, liked, or wanted by people.

    Not everyone who claims to be a prophet of God is a true prophet.  They will declare God's name, but it will be just words.  It will not hold any power.  Anyone can know God's Word, but if they do not know Him then it holds no power.  It is intellect without wisdom or power.  

    To know the truth and still disobey will bring harsh judgment upon you, but you will be judged even if you never bother to learn the truth.  The best way to live is to learn and grow in your relationship with God.  

    Choose to follow Jesus and forget about everyone who tries to get in your way.  It is always better to obey God than people.  God's laws lives in your conscience, so you can never claim that you did not know.  He knows your ever secret so it does you no good to try to lie.  Choose to be an example instead of a puppet.  Embrace the power of God's security, so that you are not vulnerable to the corrupt, depraved, or counterfeit (faith) people.
