OUR FREE WILL

” IF YOU CONSENT AND OBEY, YOU WILL EAT THE BEST OF THE LAND; BUT IF YOU REFUSE AND REBEL, YOU WILL BE DEVOURED BY THE SWORD.” ISAIAH 1: 19-20

The Lord our God gives us great opportunities but you and I must make our own indivdual decisions on what to accept and not to accept. Our Lord has given us a free will. He will never force himself upon us. It seems so unbelievable that we would or even could turn down any blessing or gift from the Lord. The problem is that we live in a world where belief is founded upon what is seen. To receive from God we must believe in what is unseen. We must have a faith that enables us to believe what our God is telling us, even though we may not instantly see it. This takes a lot of work and prayer on our part. We need to train ourselves to live in the spirit world rather than the physical world. We need to train ourselves to understand that we are involved in a great spiritual warefare and that if we are to belong to the winning side we need to believe what our spiritual God is telling us. We need to stay plugged into our great source, our God in heaven. He has given us great gifts and strong tools to use in our daily lives here on earth. Remember, “we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength!” Phil. 4:13 PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
