Are You Replacing Jesus In Your Life?

11 Aug

1 Timothy 4:1, “Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons.”

As we move closer to the second coming of Jesus, it’s alarming to see how the world has steadily removed Christ as our Lord and Savior. First removing prayer in public schools, work, social gatherings and now by encouraging those lost spiritually to focus on physical self improvement and worldly development. Now instead of finding a Church, individuals are joining gyms, meditation groups or choosing to invest more time into making money and furthering their careers in hope of filling that void.

The enemy looks to replace the finished work of Jesus at the cross with a false gospel. One that will satisfy you for the moment but will not save you from sin. Pain, hurt, anxiety are all the result of the sin nature in us. Working out and meditating on positive things may help for a moment but only Jesus can truly save us. Acts 4:12  “Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” Jesus Christ died for everything one time so we would not die by it many times. In times of trials we need to stand firm on our faith and in prayer, asking for guidance and direction

The Bible states in James 4:8, “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.” Turn to the Most High when adversity arises and not the world’s alternative. In Jesus, the Holy Spirit will guide your life and decisions for your best interest and YAH’s new world, Shalom…
