Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. (Hebrews 13:5-6)
As Christians our lifestyle must reflect the person and character of our Lord. When things, especially the unhealthy desire to have that which isn't ours, or more of what we have already been blessed with, become our object or our 'god' then we have departed from true reliance on Jesus for all our needs. He has promised, and He cannot lie, that He will provide, that He will always be with us, that He will care and sustain us. We live by Faith, and GOD calls us to a life hid in Him that glorifies Jesus and the Father in all we are and do.
But those that do not know GOD, have never experienced the new birth that GOD says is necessary to understand and experience the Kingdom, cannot live this way; for they are not filled with the Holy Spirit to empower them to live as He would live. But GOD calls everyone everywhere to repent; that is surrender to GOD on His terms; and tells us that we are without excuse. All of us are guilty sinners before GOD, and only through the blood of Jesus Christ can we be saved; saved from our sIn, saved from an eternity in Hell, and saved to live in and through Christ who strengthens believers to live; not in the flesh, but in the Spirit.
GOD is not willing that anyone should perish, and wants a relationship with you by faith. He loves you, and offers the gift of salvation to all who will believe He is who He says He is, and receive what He offers.
If you are already a child of GOD, share what He is doing in your life with others.
In Christ,
