Paul was a persecutor of the Christians. But when He met the Lord on the road to Damascus, His life turned upside down. He lived for Christ. What is the motivation behind His change? It was the love of Christ. Paul said, “Christ’s love compels us…He died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for Him who died for them and was raised again” (2 Cor. 5:14-15) Christ’s love is the greatest of all motivators. It causes those who follow Him to live for Him. We love Christ too much to walk in hate, to use coarse language or to look into inappropriate sites and so on. The love of Jesus restrains and constrains us to live in a way that pleases the Lord.
Believe on Jesus and He will remove all your sins away. Afterwards, follow Him doing His will. We can't do our will and His at the same time. Here the difficulty of a Christian is seen: we either obey His voice or not.
May God gives us a soft heart to always yield to Him even if it means stopping what we love to do. Amen.
Jezebel in the Greek is another word for false doctrine. This doctrine basically says "Your number one, don't let anything stop you from getting what You want! You be happy, you be glad, I (False Doctrine) will get it for you.
If my children came up to me constantly worried about what we would eat or wear tomorrow, even though they know I had all the resources to take care of them, I would not be very happy with them because they apparently didn’t trust me. Imagine the kind of resources God has! How about all the universe! When we worry, we show that we don’t fully trust God to take care of us. Worry cannot change a thing. Choose to put your trust in God. Look to Him to take care of you. Don’t spend your energy trying to do everything in your strength. Instead, lean on God. Let Him take care of you and rest in His peace. We are anxious over food, clothing, and our life (Luke 12:22), but life is so much more than these (Luke 12:23). If God can take of the birds of the air aren’t we of much more value to God than them? (Luke 12:24)
"I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no one comes to the Father except through Me."
- John 14:6
The Greatest Treasure of all is to believe in Jesus Christ then you will be filled with the power of the Spirit.
