God Is Nourished When We Take

[lisa slavin]

       If you are like me this makes no sence.he tells us in Isiah 55:8 ,his ways are not our ways.This is so no man can boast and take credit for what God has done.I have heard people say " well if that was true then why does it matter ? So we can be blessed. He blesses us according to our heart and obedience. Obedience is an action that reflects our heart,in other words if you dont walk in his will it is reflected in your life. When you are saved sin becomes(after obedience) sickening to you because a house divided cant stand,and the more you have the Lord in you the less tolerant your spirit becomes of sin in your life.God's way comes from our heart to our head ,the world's (lets call it by the rite name)satan's way (our will) comes from our head to our heart. See the diffrence(?) God tells us a righteous man considers the way 's of God but a selfish man thinks only of what makes him "happy" and plots evil in his heart.The sad truth is that when you consider Gods way's and reject them(do what your will is) you are exaulting yourself over God. The first example of this is satan's fall - he knew him and because of his rebellion he was black balled from heaven for eternity, seperated from the one who loved him ,and he wasent alone, there were angels that served him and followed theire own will,just because you have the suport of others in what you are doing dosent make it rite. When God is Lord of your life you God said there will be evidence in the fruit your life bears, likewise when you "worship" self "satan" ,exault your ways over his there will be fruit also but it wont be of the Holy Spirit . and you are seperated from God.Everyone looks for the obvious -( murder ,thief etc...) but God said the enemy comes like a thief in the night,he is crafty and sneeky, you may justify your sin by saying "it's not like I am hurting anyone -- thats not true, what you sow is what will be reflected in your children and it will be magnified and grow bigger the longer it is left to grow the bigger your harvest- now think about that just for a minute-- we know what we sow in God will bring us a harvest for us and our lineage- but God said He wont be mocked WHATEVER a man sow's he will reap.Now before you freak out and think its to late -that's not true- Psalms 18:30 He is a shield for ALL who take refuge in Him. John 5:1-5 you accept Jesus as your Lord and SAVIOR ,you love God and Jesus by carrying out his commands for everyone born of God overcomes the world (sin,self,satan) whatever you worship is what you become.GLORY
