WELCOME TO GOD FOCUS THIS MORNING
The title of today’s episode: IF IT WERE NOT SO…
Today I want to start with a familiar passage. If you have been attending church for any length of time you will have heard it.
John 14:2-3 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
People get wrapped up in the mansion part and do not pay any attention to the rest of the verse. They miss the truth nuggets. If it were not so I would have told you. God’s word is true we can rely on it. If he says he is coming again to receive us, then he is coming again to receive us.
He said he was going away to prepare a place for us. Then he was returning to heaven to fix up a place for his bride. He will come again. If it were not so, he would have told us.
We can depend on every word in the bible being true. He will come again and gather his bride. The world will not know until it is too late. Because he is only coming after his bride who has made herself read.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Jesus said he was the way. No one can get to God except through the work of the cross. We can depend on him to be the only way. If it we not so…he would have told us.
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
He has given us peace. Peace comes from him because he left it for us when he went away. Then he said let not your heart be trouble. That is worded like we have a choice. We can choose to walk in peace or walk in turmoil.
He said he was leaving peace for us, if it were not so she would have told us. Because Jesus cannot lie. Every world of God is true.
We must possess enough faith to believe that Jesus is real and true. That he is the one true God. Beyond that we just have to pay attention to what the word says. He is the truth and he will not lead us down the wrong path.
He wants nothing more than what is best for us. He wants us to live an abundant life full of peace and joy. But he didn’t paint a picture of sunshine and rainbows all the time. He also told us that we would have trouble. But he promised to make a way for us to escape out of those troubles.
If it were not so, he would have told us.
Until next time,
BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS
