Jesus wants to be your friend.. will you accept?
Oh wow, you just came back from an awesome evening prayer. You felt so blessed and peaceful even thinking of yelling at some one is despicable. You’re filled with Gods love and word and you’re ready to live out the rest of the week in God’s will.
The next day, you wake up and go to work, not even thinking about God in a single way.
Why?
You’ve probably heard of this a million times;
sin will never leave us, we will never leave sin, so we will never be perfect in any way before God.
Sin is just corroding at our hearts constantly, pushing temptations and desires up our face every second of our lives, trying to pull you away from God,
Especially when your faith is ripened with Gods word.
Thats why its so hard to last so long with such strong faith.
even an hour will be torture, forget about a week!
Once, I went to a retreat and I was burning for Jesus, for his will, for his cause.
I didnt want to loose this faith easily like last time, I didnt want to slip away in a couple days.
So I prayed for an everlasting faith.
Have you ever read the passage in the bible about spiritual gifts?
Here it is if you haven’t;
1 Corinthians 12:9
” to another faith by the same Spirit, to another giifts of healing by that one Spirit. “
Focus on the bolded. Faith by the same Spirit. That means that you can get the gift of faith by the same spirit that grants you all the other gifts.
After learning that from a seminar, I prayed my heart out for this gift. And at the end I got it.
I had my faith , for long I suppose.
A month is a record for me any ways.
I feel so guilty for loosing my spiritual gift so quickly.
But at the same time I’m quite relieved, because every day was constant battle with every step I took.
But now, I realize that its pretty much impossible to be that hot for God every day.
The least I can do is keep my faith on a medium-high at the least and try to level it.
Pray at least once every day really pouring your self out to God and not letting any thing bother you or distract you.
Thats why you need to find a good place to connect with God, but thats another blog.
Thanks for being a Jesus freak with me,
