GOD HAS TIME FOR YOU

SCRIPTURE READING - 📖 John 3:16

“For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

Additional Verses

📖 Genesis 1:1-31; Matthew 4:23-24; 2 Peter 3:1-18

You are the reason why God created this world and everything in it. He created days, weeks, months and the year in order to accommodate you. It is sad that today man can kill his brother or neighbor just for material things. This shows how man has lost focus just as what Cain did in Genesis 4 when he killed his brother Abel. The devil is the source of all this evil that is now rampant all over the world. Man is now killing other humans like killing a chicken or an animal. No more respect of another man created in the image of God. When God sent His only Son Jesus Christ to suffer and die for you, it was to show His great love for you. All Jesus Christ’s life on earth was spent for you. There is nowhere in the Bible you will ever read that Jesus Christ invested in businesses of this perishing world. All His time was spent on preaching to people about the kingdom of heaven. Today I am encouraging you to respond to Jesus Christ’s call to focus on the kingdom of heaven rather than on material wealth which will soon perish with the world. Many people come to the man or woman of God to be prayed for so that they can have happiness in their marriages, prosperity and success in their businesses and promotion in their employment. All this is temporary and will soon perish. No matter how much wealth you may acquire, you will one day leave it behind or it will all perish. But one thing for certain is that when you invest in the kingdom of God, you have the best and all time investment that leads to eternal life. In Luke 5 :1-11, when Peter and his partners discovered Jesus Christ as the Messiah when they saw the miracle of a big catch of fish, they immediately abandoned everything and gave all their time to Jesus Christ. They saw beyond the blessing of the catch of fish. If you want to receive God’s favor, you must also follow the example of Simon Peter and the other disciples in the Gospels and in the Acts of the Apostles. Alleluia!

Prayer

Help me Father to be able to make the right investment in Your kingdom so that I will enjoy eternal blessings. Help me to see beyond the blessings but to instead seek the Giver of those blessings. In Jesus Christ’s name I pray. Amen.
