Are we madly fall in love with Jesus or the world?
Jeremiah 50:38 The sword will even strike her water supply, causing it to dry up. And why? Because the whole land is filled with idols, and the people are madly in love with them.
Last night, I was playing game on face book that I always do that everyday, and I felt that I am supposed to read His words and I couldn’t go sleep. Something has been pressed hard on my heart. After I cleaned up the kitchen and made lunch for my husband, and I was planning to go bed after that but I felt something that I need to read His words. So I opened the bible and read in Jeremiah 48 till I reached to Jeremiah 50:38 and the words was popped to me and strike me and made me realize about that verse and I was shocked and surprised what Lord has spoke to me. It makes me realize about this verse and I cannot stop dwelling on this verse since I woke up and been thinking about this. My question is about Am I madly love with those idols (the world) more than Jesus? I realize that I am not supposed to do that and I realized that my spiritual is getting dry because of that. So I had to repented and asked God forgive me for that and I was so determined to stop doing this like omit the apps games in the face book. When I was thinking about that last night and I realized that My house has been madly love with those stuff like watching tv, having cell phone and been on it all the times, playing games on computer or dwelling on money etc like that and we haven’t put God first in our lives. Things around me that can distract me away from God.
So the bible says, Romans 12: 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will his good, pleasing and perfect will.
If we do that, we are adultery to this world, the verse says, You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God.
Do you want to be enemy of God or want to be His servant? We have to make that choice to make.
So that s why God didn’t want us to conform things in the world as he wants us to renewing our minds and be able to please God and doing His will. As we are not supposed to be madly falling love in the world.
Revelation 2:5 Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first.
If we had put things in our lives first before God, we need to repent this. And come back to Lord and be madly falling in love with Jesus.
James 4: 8
Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world.
That s what God wants us to come to God and God will come close to us and repent.
1 John 2:15
Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you.
It is very strong message, He said Do not love the world or things that means, any idols that you love like money, computers, cell phone, many things that you can think of.
1 John 2: 16
For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world.
That things from the world, only give us physical pleasures and craving for everything we see that will lead us away from God and it is not from God at all.
1 John 2:17
And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.
In the world, nothing can benefit us and nothing can give us any hope. As everything in the world is fading away. It is really sad that people are after those in the world and putting God aside. So that is very important for us to put God first and seek Him more and please Him more that where we will live forever and that is the best hope that we have in God. As nothing in the world can give any hope for us.
So if you realize that you have been stepped away from God’s path and realized that you are focusing on things in the world and realize that your spiritual is getting dry and realized that you had been ignoring what you are supposed to do. If that is for you, then Repent and ask for God forgive you. And give our heart to God completely and put God first in our lives.
1 John 1:9
But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.
Matthew 6:33
Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.
Matthew 6:24
No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
So are we madly fall in love with Jesus or the world??
We cannot serve two masters, we must choose one master, either God or World.
Matthew 22: 37
Jesus replied, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’
Jesus said we must love the Lord Your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. That means, all of it not half of it. Meaning full time not part time. So we have to see that we are supposed to put God First in our lives, and commit our lives fully in Lord no matter what. Also we have to stand firm for Jesus Christ no matter what the world offers us. And Hold on to this promises that God will bring us through this.
It is ok to have those things but we must put God first in our lives before them.
For example, if we get up in the morning, we shouldn’t go to computer first thing to look at face book news, or watching tv news or read news paper, we should stop doing that and start read His Words and Where God can work in our lives daily. And we are supposed to mediate His words day and night and also God can use us for His glory to witness people and bring people to Know Jesus Christ.
So right now in the world, you see it is getting worse, and people are dying without Jesus Christ and we are too busy with other things in the world. Like being madly love with the world, and forgetting God and His words.
Jesus Christ is coming back very soon and we must be ready for Him and He didn’t want anyone to perish and He wants people to be saved. I believe that God’s time is running out than we think. Every second, every minutes, people are dead without Jesus and is too late for them to have Jesus Christ. It has to stop because People are so precious to God’s eyes. We needed to spread His words to people where people needed to hear. We have to think about this.
AM I MADLY FALL IN LOVE WITH JESUS OR THE WORLD??? Think about it.
