Are You Doing God's Will?

So, what is God's will? Is it preaching to a congregation? Not necessarily. The truth is... All of us can't be preachers..BUT WE ALL CAN BE MINISTERS! We are all called to reach the lost. This verse is from Mark 16:15 and it tells us of our duty in Christ.
And then he told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone.
The Good News, of course, is the gospel. This is the very gospel that saved you and I, and that can save others. But, how can we do this? I am going to share my thoughts and ideas on this. I don't have all the answers, but with God's grace, we can do our part to further the gospel. Before going into some steps, you can check out the video from my channel below. So, here are some things you can do to help further the gospel. USE YOUR GIFTS AND TALENTS You can use the gifts and talents God has given to you to help further God's kingdom. How does that happen? For instance...Let's say you are a good dancer. You can dance like you are dancing before God. The spirit in which you do the thing you are good at can draw and influence others. You can share of the hope that is within you by doing your everyday life in excellence. So, use your gifts, whatever they are to the glory of the Lord. THROUGH YOUR VOCATION You cna do a job that allows you to make tangible change for God's kingdom. As an example... You can volunteer to feed the homeless, pass out clothes in the winter, and more. Your job is a vehicle that can allow you to be in a better financial place to do God's will. Even if you don't have a job that allows you to serve others openly, like a corporate job, there are still things you can do. You can do the job to the best of your ability. Work as if you are working unto the Lord himself. Be kind and just be light, that is all you can do. CONCLUSION So, those are a few ways you can do God's will in your everyday life. We have to be sure to take advantage of every moment we can to reflect Jesus in our everyday lives. I am praying that you be encouraged to live the Christian life. It is not easy but just know we have a father in Heaven that rewards us. You don't have to be perfect to serve God, but you do have to be willing! Be encouraged and have a wonderful day!

The Single Hardest Thing About Being A Christian

 It's not easy walking the "narrow path." I fall off from that path more than I'd like to admit.  I don't know if you struggle like me, but the faith walk is full of ups and downs.  I'm going to share what I think is the most difficult thing about being a Christian.  THE MOST DIFFICULT THING ABOUT BEING A CHRISTIAN! WALKING IN FAITH  Walking in faith forces you to trust God.  Faith is the expectation that God is going to move on your behalf, even if you have no evidence.  Let's look at a famous example of Abraham and Sarah.  Abraham and Sarah were well beyond child-bearing years.  But God told them they would have a child.  This was not easy to understand.  Yet, we know that Abraham was called the "Father of Faith."   Abraham's real recourse was to trust God, despite the circumstances.  And even Abraham tried to bring God's will to fruition by using Sarah's maid, Hagar.  We look further in Genesis to see Abraham's fai...

Should You Question God?

Where are you, God?  I don't understand... Did I really hear from you, God?   I am sure you have asked these kinds of questions before. .  Honestly, there are times it seems there are more questions than answers.  This begs a bigger question.. SHOULD I QUESTION GOD?  This, in my opinion is two fold.  There is first the practical questions and then the matters of the heart.  First, we have a greater Word with us.  That word is the Bible.  According to 2 Timothy 3:16-17, the Bible helps answer our questions.  All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. 17God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work. This means that the Bible is going to answer our questions. When it comes to our daily lifestyle, the Bible is our teacher.   We have to fill ourselves with God's...

How Should Christians Pick A Job Or Career?

 Sometimes, we can be deceived into thinking that God only cares about our "spiritual" walk.  But I am learning that couldn't be further from the truth.  Let's look at what God says in his word.  Here is 3 John 1:2 (NIV)  Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.  Even though the Apostle John wrote this, I gather that God also cares about our souls, emotions, our daily lives, and all that concerns us.  I would even think that means our careers.  Most of us, especially as adults, spend the majority of our time working or fulfilling some kind of obligation in the role of an entrepreneur.      The truth is that most of us don't like our jobs.  Mainly, this stems from not being able to be ourselves, low pay, and a bad environment.  This is an issue, even for Christians.  But as Christians, we should have a different lens of looking at a c...
