"May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." - 1 Thessalonians 5:23
Have you ever thought about this?
That Our Priority is not trying to earn those crowns in heaven! Our Priority is not to get our ministry all pumped up! Our Priority is not just to survive, get by and somehow pass the gates of heavens! NOPE! None of these.
Our Priority must be JESUS! Jesus is more than enough for us. He is the only priority that we must have. His will, plans, time, season He decides for us. Are you constantly having a chat with HIM? Are you having a deep relationship with HIM?
Suppose, I come by your home to visit you. You may have a wonderful home, a beautiful garden, grand furnitures, and other fancies, which is all great, but, when I am visiting your home, I am not coming there to see your luxuries. I am coming there to visit you, to have a good companionship and enjoy the relationship we have built and grow.
Likewise, when we get to Heaven, its not about the golden path, and the many wonders we get there to see, which is all very exciting and awesome. But, the more important and priority person to see is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ face to face! To enjoy His companionship which we have built on this temporary earth and to rest with His there at His home forever and ever. How awesome is that! :)
Are you cleansing yourself daily? Are you getting prepared for His mighty visit to take us home with Him? Pause and take a self-check of how your heart condition is?
If your relationship is shaky with Jesus, Go to Him, repent, forgive, pray and He will restore you. He will not leave you nor forsake you. The only thing He excepts from you is to obey and practice the word of God. To love Him and to love one another.
Here is a hymn below I would love to share with you which blessed my heart:
Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Chorus:
Are you washed in the blood,
In the soul cleansing blood of the Lamb?
Are your garments spotless?
Are they white as snow?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Are you walking daily by the Savior's side?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Do you rest each moment in the Crucified?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
When the Bridegroom cometh will your robes be white?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Will your soul be ready for the mansions bright,
And be washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Lay aside the garments that are stained with sin,
And be washed in the blood of the Lamb;
There's a fountain flowing for the soul unclean,
O be washed in the blood of the Lamb!
Let's Pray, Shall we?
Dear Lord Jesus,
It's all about you Lord. Help me to be right with you. Wash me with your blood and make me whole Lord. Your coming is at hand, I pray to run this race faithfully and sincerely fixing my eyes on you. Let me not be distracted by the screams of the world. Help me today and always to walk in the path of righteousness and in obedience to your word. Please help all my loved ones to be close to you and strengthen their relationship with you too. Help us all Lord. We need you. I am trusting you to take care of all my things. I love you and I pray you be my priority at all times. In Jesus name, Amen.
I pray this message healed, encouraged and blessed you. No matter what circumstances you are in, JESUS IS ENOUGH. Enjoy a great day. God bless.
