A God Focused Life

Our reading for today is Matthew 22-24….there’s so much to read about in these chapters, including end time prophecy! I will leave that topic for the theologians for now. :) Today I will focus in on what Jesus said is the greatest commandment; To love God and love others.

Jesus called the least likely unto Himself. Many who thought they themselves were “great” were not so great when it came to the things of God. And many who thought they were “less than” were among the greatest in the eyes of Jesus.

Matthew 16-18

I promised to give you the scriptures I referenced so here they are: Ezekiel 28:12-19, Isaiah 14:12-15, Revelation 12:4, 4:8, 20:10, Ezekiel 33:11, 36:26-36, Heb 1:14, Isaiah 11:2, 1 John 1:9, Joel 2:25, Micah 7:8

By reading 3 chapters of the New Testament a day, we can read it's entirety in less than 90 days! The focus is to spend time with God each day and glean from His word. I also challenge you to find a few friends to discuss what you've read!

It does not make God happy when we listen to the bad reports instead of trusting Him. As a matter of a fact, we will see in scripture that it actually makes Him angry. The bottom line of today’s podcast is God wants relationship with us and that’s how we learn to TRUST HIM, even when things look bleak.

What was it about Moses that made him a good leader? Why did God choose him?

If you are becoming heavy hearted because things look bleak, or maybe they look the exact opposite of what you thought, hold onto faith! You might be on the verge of a breakthrough and you may see the most miraculous move of God you have ever ever seen! ….just like Moses did!

We are going to continue with the stories of the Bible and dive into the birth of Moses but first I want to talk about the ministry of “A God Focused Life.” God has a plan for you and wants to touch others through YOU!! Draw closer to Him and He will give you exactly what you need when you need it!

Joseph-God Takes the Bad Things Happening in Your Life and Will Use Them for Good

When was the last time you fought hard for a blessing of God to manifest in your life? Do you sit back and let life happen? Or do you take control of your decisions and do something to change your circumstances?

All throughout the Bible we see consequences of sin. We also see blessings that were passed down from fathers to sons. What about today? Can we have access to blessings? The answer is yes! Today’s podcast talks about the story and struggle between Jacob and Esau all for the blessing. I wrap up the podcast talking about how we can live in the blessing directly from God all because of Jesus.

There’s a time of warning and a time of judgement for our sins but God ultimately wants to rescue us and help us live an abundant life of hope. Tune in to today’s podcast to hear how this story of Sodom and Gomorrah applies to us today.

Relationship with God is key to seeing God fulfill His plan and purpose in our lives. Abram and Sarai were not perfect, yet God still loved them and made them the Father (and Mother) of many generations to come. There is hope for all of us if we only believe God!
