Tick. Tick. Tick.
The Day Before the Last Day of 2021.
But if
TODAY is your last TODAY
because you will never have this TODAY again.
What are you going to do with it?
What if you TRUSTED like you have never TRUSTED before
to a point where you OBEYED like you have never OBEYED before.
When GOD says,
"Do not be anxious about anything" (Philippians 4:6)
you actually OBEY and then are filled with HIS PEACE that transcends all understanding.
When GOD says,
"Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged" (Joshua 1:9)
you actually OBEY and you
actually take on COURAGE because you know GOD is with your wherever you go.
When JESUS says
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened" (Matthew 11:28)
and you actually OBEY and you
COME and receive the REST that you have been craving?
When JESUS says
“Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in GOD, believe also in ME" (John 14:1)
and you actually OBEY and BELIEVE.
And then you realize that BELIEVING is what makes
OBEDIENCE
so easy
because
GOD & JESUS
don't waste their life changing WORDS
for
they mean what they say and say what they mean
and
everything they say is rooted in
LOVE.
"When you obey ME you are living in MY love,
just as I obey MY FATHER and live in HIS love" (John 15:10)
Oh TO OBEY is the sweet spot of LOVE.
When GOD SPEAKS & JESUS SPEAKS
and you OBEY,
every moment becomes your best moment.
What if you OBEYED today as if your LIFE depended on it?
Well it does because
"If the SON has set you FREE you will be FREE indeed" (John 8:36)
Therefore,
let's LIVE TODAY like our LIFE depended on it
by depending on the ONE in OBEDIENCE to all HE asks us
so we don't look back on this day
and live in
the WHAT IFS of life~
the should haves & would haves & could haves.
What is GOD asking you to OBEY today?
WHAT IF today is the day that you are set
FREE
to LIVE IN HIS FRUIT of OBEYING GOD~
"love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control"
(Galatians 5:22-23)
Hmm.
"WHAT IF" (listen to the song below)
