” BUT THE GATEWAY TO LIFE IS VERY NARROW AND THE ROAD IS DIFFICULT AND ONLY A FEW FIND IT.” MATTHEW 7:14
Living a life worthy of Jesus is a very difficult life to live. However, living such a life leads to much joy and peace. With strong faith in Jesus and the use of the Holy Spirit you and I can live such a life. But once we begin our journey in Jesus the devil sets out to destroy everything we do. He places doubts in our path. He puts fear in our thoughts. He uses temptation to push us off of the path. He uses embarrassment and persecution from the world to make us feel very uncomfortable. He uses bitterness toward others and unforgiveness in our hearts to deter us from our goal. He uses jealousy and lust to keep us from following our Lord. We can go and spread God’s word but if we are not producing the fruit then others are not going to believe what we are saying. It is extremely important for us to stay well-grounded in the word of God. We must stay completely focused on Jesus and his ways. We must continue to build upon our faith each and every day. We must be able to stand up in the face of the devil and all of his evil ways and defeat him with the promises of God. Our Lord has given us all of the tools necessary in order to come out victorious. However, we must stay focused and never take our eyes off of Jesus and the end goal. Remember, “We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.” Phil. 4:13.
PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
