Life is a Journey

Labels:

Let me first describe what a journey is. It means traveling from one place to another with the intention of arriving at your desired destination. When we travel, we all want to arrive on time without any unnecessary delays. Life is a journey. If you didn’t know, let me unfold it to you today. In the book of (John 14: 2-4), Jesus tells his disciples that he is going home to prepare a place for them, because in his father’s house there are many houses and that he’ll come back again to take them so that they can be where he is.
 Jesus was making his disciples to understand that he wouldn’t be in this world forever or for so long. He knew that he was on his way to heaven. Stop being ignorant about life, but be determined about what Jesus told his disciples. It is very foolish to not know where you are heading to.

 Imagine getting into the car, not knowing where you are going to end up. My words of encouragement are: along your journey, you are going to find two roads. One leads to death (wide); the other leads to life (narrow). If you choose a narrow road, it has no shortcuts, and sometimes you will face hardships, rejections, or pain along the way, but don’t give up. Be of good heart. The Bible in the book of (James 2:1) tells us that we must count it joy whenever we go through trials.... Trials are painful, and James is urging us that we should be prepared for everything. 

There will come a point when you will feel as if you are a stag on the road and no one is paying attention to you. Don't be concerned; just keep going. The benefits of pursuing that path are filled with joy, celebration, and tranquility. God will reward you for your perseverance, obedience, and dedication.

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

How to depend on Jesus

The things of this world cannot fill the empty space within us; only Christ can complete us. This embodies for us that we need Jesus more than anything else on this planet. God did not put us here to rely on ourselves, but to rely on him for everything. We can't survive without him, which is why the Bible cautions us not to rely on our own understanding, because our understanding can fail us and our hearts can lead us astray. Physically, we may appear to be capable of doing things on our own, but on the inside, we are slowly dying. I don’t know about you, but if you haven't yet accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, it’s not too late. The Bible encourages us in Jeremiah 33:3 that if we call on God, he will answer us and tell us things we don't know. God is waiting for your call today. He is waiting for you to come to him and ask him to show you the way. Here is a short prayer to seek God: Heavenly Father, please forgive me for all of my transgressions against

How do we allow our past to not define us  

Even if you don't have everything together, rest certain that God sees you as his priceless possession. Your past does not define who you are today. In actuality, from a spiritual viewpoint, who you are today is not determined by your past. It might affect your thoughts, but it doesn't make you who you are. God proclaims our true identity: that we are made in His likeness and in His image, reflecting both the male and female facets of God (according to Genesis 1:26-27).
