- If you have a prayer request that you would like us to pray for, and didn't turn it in this Sunday, please message it to me and we will include it in our prayers for the next 3 weeks.
“Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends." (Revelation 3:20 NLT)
- Part of fasting is simply making room for Jesus in your life.
- Make room for Him to move.
- This verse in Rev. 3:20 is spoken to the church...those who already know Christ.
- Jesus is standing at the door and knocking of a church that has become satisfied, self-sufficient and complacent.
- He is saying, "I want to come in."
- Is there room in your life for him or is it filled up with school, work, media, busy schedules, entertainment, etc...?
- Be honest with yourself...is there room?
- Has he been first?
- Matt. 6:33 (MSG) says, "Steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative, God-provisions. Don't worry about missing out. You'll find all your everyday human concerns will be met."
- Don't worry about what you will be missing out on for the next few weeks, think about what you will be getting.
- The greatest tragedy is when we miss out on Jesus and His Presence in our life.
- Jesus will come in and bring His peace, His direction, His Hope, His Joy.
- What do you need to get rid of or take out of your life for the next 2 weeks in order to have time to spend with God?
- Is it Media?
- Is it food?
- Is it TV?
- Is it complaining or gossip?
- What needs to go?
- Jesus says in Rev. 3:19, "The people I love, I call to account—prod and correct and guide so that they'll live at their best. Up on your feet, then! About face! Run after God!"
- Choose today to Live at your best!
- Run after Him with all that you've got for the next 21 days and see how it changes your life.
- Have a great Monday!
