DEVOTIONAL: KEEPING GOD'S COMMANDS AND HIS PROMISE

"It takes a humble heart to listen and obey the word of God"


Reading John 14:15-20

Devotional 

Our perfect role model of obedience is Jesus Christ. Even in the hardest time of his life when he was  in this world(crucifixion) he was able to kept the commands of the Abba Father in order to saved the world by sacrificing his life. He obeyed the father until he died on the cross. Keeping the word of God with obedience is very challenging to us, but Jesus Christ has a promise that he will give us an advocate to help us forever, the Spirit of truth.

We all need the Lord, apart from God we are nothing that's the truth. Jesus Christ came to give us life, he died and rose up again, so now we are alive by God's grace. Whoever believes in him as our Lord, our God and  savior we will have eternal life. He obeyed the Father because he loves us not because of any conditions or responsibilities even the world did not recognize and accept him.

Let's stop being worldly so we will be able to recognize the word of God which has the commands and promises. Jesus said,whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.”

Keeping Jesus Christ teaching and commands  is a major command for us. God has a personal conversation with us always, if you hear his word as the bible says do not harden you heart for he blessed the one who hear his word and obey it.



Do you know what Jesus Christ has done for you?

Who is Jesus Christ to you?

Do you love him?

God knows what is inside our heart and mind...

Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit

15 “If you love me, keep my commands. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be[a] in you. 18 I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. 19 Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. 20 On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.

DEVOTIONAL: SALVATION MEANING AND ITS IMPORTANCE

Salvation (also called deliverance or redemption) is the saving of human beings from sin and its consequences—which include death and separation from God—by Christ's death and resurrection, and everyone who accept this truth will be restored through faith and have eternal life. Note, that the word death here is not about a physical death but a spiritual death. So, this spiritual death and separation from God start from the time when humans disobeyed God which is written in the book of Genesis 3 ( please read the full chapter ) . Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Isaiah 59:2 But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear. And because God so love the world He made a way in which He sent his one and only son Jesus Christ to deliver and redeem us from being perished because of our transgressions and sin. John 3:16 , which says, "For God so loved the world that he g...

Repentance is important because it allows for forgiveness, spiritual growth, and a renewed relationship with our Heavenly Father. It is an act of turning away from sin and walk toward a path of a healthy spiritual life  which leads to freedom from guilt, healing, and a fresh start. It is often seen as a prerequisite for spiritual progress and salvation. It is also an  act of feeling remorse for all the past wrongdoing. Knowing also that in every mistake that we are going to commit in this present and in the future has a consequences(including the past). So it is called to repent and not to repeat.
