TAKE TIME FOR PRAYER AND THE WORD

Jesus said “Blessed are they that do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” (Matthew 5:6).“My sheep hear my voice and I know them and they follow me.”(John 10:27). Do you hunger and thirst to learn God’s truths from his Word? Or is there always something keeping you away? It is the Devil’s job to keep us away from really getting into the Word and prayer. Beloved I say this unto you, out of love and concern. We need to ask ourselves are we really that sheepy or do we follow afar off from the Good Shepherd and get lost from him and get caught in the rocks and crannies and brambles where the wolves can get us? I hope you spend time with the Master praying and feasting on his Word daily. There is a story in the Bible; “Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word. But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” (Luke l0: 38-42). How about you? Have you chosen that good part that shall not be taken away? Do you sit at Jesus’s feet and learn from him the words he has to say to you? We have to make time, to take time for prayer, and God’s Word, We take time to eat shouldn’t we take time to feed our spirits every day.”Neither have I gone back from the commandments of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.”( Job 23:12).

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.
