WELCOME TO GOD FOCUS THIS MORNING
THE TITLE FOR TODAY’S EPISODE: GOD’S DESIRES
Human beings have an overwhelming desire and thirst for knowledge. History has judged Eve too harshly. She made a bad choice and trusted the wrong voice. If we are honest, I don’t believe one of us could say that we haven’t been taken in by someone who was manipulative.
But I want to discuss with you today the garden itself. God gave them everything they needed. There was peace in the garden. It was a place that God came down and talked to Adam and Eve. He desired people to commune with and he wanted to be their God.
When given a chance to be thankful for what God had done for them, they were disobedient. It should not have mattered the amount of knowledge that the tree would give them if their friend asked them to not eat of that tree. Even the threat of death didn’t stop them from seeking knowlege.
Adam can blame Eve all he wants, but he knew they were being disobedient. That is why God kicked them both out of the garden. That didn’t stop God’s desire to communicate with mankind.
He made a better way. He sent Jesus to die for our sins, so that his spirit could dwell within us and commune with us. God is still wanting someone to talk with, just as he came down to the garden and talked with Adam and Eve, he wants to talk to us.
Prayer time should not just be a quick thank you for what you have done, here is my wish list, thank you, Amem. Prayer time should be us quietly worshipping until he speaks to us. Now more than ever before we need to know his voice. We need to not be deceived by the sneeky snake.
Just as Adam and Eve got kicked out of the place God created, many church leaders have listened to the enemy and have eaten the forbidden fruit. These evil pastors have large followings, because they give people a feel good fifteen minutes. He never tells them to choose life and not death. The best way to know if what is being preached at your church is God’s truth, is to know the word for yourself and ask God himself for direction.
John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
God gave the church his spirit, not just so that we could witness, as some say. But he gave us his Spirit so that we can be connected to God. He didn’t fill us with His Spirit just so we could speak in tongues and rejoice, but so that we could be empowered by God to do his will. So that we could be led by His Spirit. If we will listen to the leading of the Holy Ghost we will not be misled by the snakes of this world.
The Holy Ghost is not given to us so that we can become self-righteous and judgmental. He came so that we could have a connection to God. One that will lead us to fulfillment. God’s desire is to have a relationship with us. His Spirit will show us things to come. If we take the time to sit quietly and wait up on him to speak to us through that still small voice.
God desires for us to worship him in Spirit and Truth. He doesn’t want us going through the motions. He wants us to be led by His Spirit and not our will.
Until next time,
