Example

It is by our example, our leading that others come to know Christ and learn to walk the walk that leads them deeper into the light. We must be on guard each day and make sure we stay on the right path. ~ DickEvans.org

His Light

As you and I walk out into the world each day, we take His light into dark places. Others see it. Those that have known us before see a difference. Those that do not know us are drawn in and do not know why. But when God calls they sense it. When they sense it they find that little faith. The seed of faith that was planted in them from creation awakens and they begin to water it. So Go into the world and be that light today. ~ DickEvans.org

Forget

Father God wiped out our sins from His memory, but we keep the old fires burning. (Hebrews 10:17) Isn't it time that we got with the program? If He can forgive why can't we? If He can forget, why can't we? ~ DickEvans.org

Grace and Sin

Hebrews 8:12 NIV
For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.

Our sin is forgiven forever. Grace covers us when we sin. And yet our lives are to be holy as He is holy. How can that be if we continue to sin? You see, Jesus went to the cross so our sins would be forever forgiven. He did not go to remove all sin. Sin is still here and it is our choice to walk in sin or in righteousness daily.

As we walk with Christ we build our relationship with Him. There is no sin in Him and when we continue to walk in sin we do not get as close as we could to Him.

He is looking for a pure clean bride. As we sin we remain dirty. He still loves us. He still covers us with His blood. He still protects us. We still walk in His grace. Yet we know we want to be closer to Him. To do that we cannot continue to walk in known sin. To walk as a carnal Christian instead of who we are in Christ, instead of walking in the spirit, in our renewed mind.

What we look at on our computers may be hidden from the world but He knows. It is sin. What we do behind closed doors may not be visible to others. But He knows because He is in us. He forgives our sin and yet He knows our sin.

Lord help me to be a pure bride. Help me to not remain in the sinful positions I have allowed in my life. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Visible

The Internet is a great way to communicate today. But we must stop hiding behind it because God wants us visible to His people. The world needs more than what they can see on Facebook. They need flesh and blood to disciple them. It is time to move out into the world among the people as Jesus' disciples did. Go out two by two and touch the people one at a time. Go outside of your comfort zone. ~ DickEvans.org

Meat

How often do we attend church service on Sunday expecting to hear a message that digs deep into us; a message that is a catalyst for growth? And how often do we feel comfortable with the milk that is served instead? To get meat we have allow Holy Spirit to take us out of the box, out of our comfort zone. ~ DickEvans.org

His Word

As each believer reads the Word of God it speaks to him or her to communicate a need for the present time. It opens up things occurring in us that need to be worked on, need to be judged by us and taken care of. As we read the same passage over again at a later date it may open up an entirely different issue in us to be exposed and dealt with. ~ DickEvans.org
