Who Do You Follow?
It is the Lord your God you must follow, and Him you must revere. Keep His commands and obey Him; serve Him and hold fast to Him.
Deuteronomy 13:4 New International Version
THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Who Do You Follow?
Do you follow the Lord Jesus Christ, or some religious denomination or worse yet a cult and demons masquerading as a church? So many church denominations in the world want us to follow their lead and obey their voice, to worship and have church their way, to follow their doctrines. Just because they have been around for ages and have a central leader does not mean they are a church of Jesus. But Paul said it best, ” Is Christ divided? ” Jesus did Not have denominations, sects or cults, but there were such things around even in Jesus’ day. The disciples/early church served Jesus and Him only! Jesus served and represents God the Father to us as Christians. Therefore it should be God’s Word, His doctrine we follow and NOT the doctrine of men, some cult, or of demons. There are cults still out there today calling themselves churches and calling themselves Christian and they haven’t a clue what a Christian is or they just are deceiving people on purpose! God has proved Himself faithful and loving through the ages. In His might He is to be revered. But rather than seeing reverence as a “denominational church thing,” i.e. Baptist or Protestant, Methodist or Catholic, or whatever, we are reminded that it is a “life thing.” Christian is being “Christ-Like” in everything we say and do! We are to obey and keep His commandments, and we are to serve Him and depend upon Him in our daily lives. Church history and church customs mean nothing to Jesus. Reverence is not necessarily silence in the assembly, reverence is action to the leading of His Holy Spirit and to His glory in all that we do and say! Reverence is obeying His commandments and His Word, not some denominational decree or doctrine, or so-called church history as the Catholics say, unless it is totally in agreement to God’s Word. A seminary is really a cemetery if it is teaching incorrect Bible doctrine, that is it’s doctrine will bring death instead of life! Most seminaries today are just that. Cemeteries that bring about death and destruction of God’s Word. They teach dead religion and church history/doctrine NOT God’s Word and live through Jesus. I sure wouldn’t want to be in the shoes of any of those teachers come judgment day! Reverence is having a Christ-like walk in our day to day life. Reverence is calling on Him in a time of need and not some priest or the Pope. God is our source period! Reverence is spending quality time with our Holy Father, and with Jesus, and with the Holy Spirit in the secret place. Don’t forget to invite the Holy Spirit also! Whatever the Father and His Word says, that I will do. Not the doctrines of men.
MY PRAYER…
Holy and Righteous Father, help me take my worship outside the church building through my body, the temple of the living God, and into my day to day life as I live what I sing, practice what I say, and pursue what I pray. Lord help me to be a doer of Your word and not just a hearer. Lord, help me to show the world around me reverence unto You, My Father in my daily life and all that I do and say.
In Jesus name.
Amen
