1 John 2:12 I am writing to you, dear children, because your sins have been forgiven on account of his name.
If we compare our lives with the Bible we see we have “burned our bridges” long ago!
But, because of Gods Great love for us, we are forgiven because of what Christ has done.
Take hold of Jesus’ life with both hands and never let go!

Jonah 3:8 But let people and animals be covered with sackcloth. Let everyone call urgently on God. Let them give up their evil ways and their violence.
Jonah was sent to Nineveh with a very hard to hear message… He had to face the very people who were doing things against God!
Telling people something they don’t want to hear is always difficult.
God wants us to hear and spread the truth all the time – will you?

1 John 2:24 As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you. If it does, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father.
Did you hear what God was saying to you – or did you think of something you think He should have said to you?
God does not always talk directly to us but may use the people around us to give us insights into His will.
Listen to what you first hear from God and allow Him to guide you!

Ruth 3:5 ‘I will do whatever you say,’ Ruth answered.
Ruth was very loyal to her mother-in-law, following her and helping her even when the going got very tough for them.
Quite what the meaning of the ritual she was asked to do and where that came from – who knows…
But she willingly listened intently and obeyed – and God blessed her because of that!

Psalm 102:2 Do not hide your face from me when I am in distress. Turn your ear to me; when I call, answer me quickly.
How many times do we cry out for help when we think we need it?
How many times do you step forward to help someone in need before they have to call out for help?
God helps before we call, when we call and after we call.

Matthew 2:2 and asked, ‘Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.’
The Magi followed a bright star in the skies to find the Messiah, born as King of the Jews.
Men feared this because it meant upsetting their perceived power!
God alone as all the might and power, we are His humble servants here to serve His children!

Psalm 29:4 The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is majestic.
No matter how much we talk and tell people things, they choose on their own whether to believe us or not…
As much as we talk, things don’t always go our way either…
But when God talks, things always go His way and are always heard!
Make sure you listen too!

Mark 1:15 ‘The time has come,’ he said. ‘The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!’
Christ has given us the example of how to behave like a disciple!
He went out and told people the good news and said to believe this good news.
Our task is to go out and tell others about what we know in our hearts. That is all.

Do you make sure you spend time listening to God after asking Him so much?

Look to God for guidance and to Christ for forgiveness!

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

God’s Word, our bibles, is the truth God has given to us. It is designed to make you stop and listen!
Are you glossing over your bible?

How often have you tried to describe God to anyone?
God has given us the words to describe Him – our bibles. Use what He has given to the best effect!

Do you back away from doing things just because you don’t have the right qualifications?
It is right to have the right qualifications when doing something like plumbing or electrical work, but talking about God can be different.
God simply wants you to tell people what you know no matter how little you actually know!
