He Died For Us To Live…

^{Mark 15:16} The soldiers led Jesus away into the palace and called together the whole company of soldiers. ¹⁷ They put a purple robe on him, then twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on him. ¹⁸ And they began to call out to him, “Hail, king of the Jews!” ¹⁹ Again and again they struck him on the head with a staff and spit on him. Falling on their knees, they paid homage to him. ²⁰ And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him out to crucify him.

Before some of you get upset about the statement of Jesus dying please recall that I am speaking of His physical death which brings us spiritual life. As I am completing another study on the life of Christ it broke my heart this morning to read this scripture in Mark 15 and see how cruel humanity is without God. The Lord has shown me how humans are nothing more than cannibalistic animals without His Word and His spirit of peace. As you think about animals there are many different types, some that show their teeth and some that are in disguise. The ones which are in disguise are the ones that pose the most danger and this is why it wise to have the discernment between good and evil. For without your senses in tune then you never know what lies around the corner or who could be standing by your side….

Looking For Peace

Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace. James 3:13-18

While reading this scripture written by James, the brother of Jesus, I am curious if any part of it may have stung or caused a little discomfort? If so praise God because then that means that He loves you and He wants you to address the sting. As we are taught with Pharoah if we continue to neglect the Truth of God then our hearts can harden to a point that will not only destroy us but they can affect our families as well.

I plead with you from my heart to yours to not allow Satan to spiritually rob you of the peace that can be experienced with God when we become transparent and obedient in His Word…

God’s Word Teaches Discipline & Self Control

If you saw a child abandoned on a frozen pond and being held captive in fear how far would you be willing to go to help rescue that child from their captivity? Would you step out in faith if you saw a bully out on the ice pushing that weak child out further from safety and causing them to cry out to God from their heart to help set them free? How would you react if you saw someone misleading another child out on the frozen pond without teaching them how to walk on their own? Would you be willing to risk your own life for the sake of another? Or, would you be willing to call out to those that were not teaching the children how to stop and listen before something cracked and someone possibly fell through?

Learning to walk with God requires each one of us to take that step of faith while trusting in God to carry us forward. It is vital that we continue to study the Word of God to develop our own senses as we are taught in Hebrews 5:14,”But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.”

See recognizing the spiritual enemy or lets say the evil one is crucial in maturing with Christ and learning how to be in this world but not of this world. The object is for us to recognize the spiritual cracks of the enemy that take place when the Truth is applied to avoid the spiritual struggle between good and evil. For when we learn to hear the cracks of Satan then it is our place to wait on God’s direction before we go any further.

Learning how to react under the pressure of Satan is crucial in our walk as a Christian. We all get wound up from time to time when we allow something to build without communicating in love and knowing how to simply trust in God. If we are not careful Satan can deceive us when we do not know how to properly disperse our weight out on the frozen pond and this is why it is vital that we learn to develop that one on one relationship with the Lord for us to make it to the other side…Amen
