Wasting Your Life and Time Will Leave You in a Confused State of Mind

Here we are again Saints, caught in the midst of our time consuming and confusing selfish lives. Not so much as loving each other, but loving the world and pleasing people of this life over the people of Jesus Christ, who are our brothers and sisters in Christ. Some saints, and I’m not pointing at anyone in particular, stick closer to the worldly lifestyle along with individuals who are involved with the worldly lifestyle, loving it, thinking it’s ok in Christ’s eyes. In some cases, they even treat their brothers and sisters in Christ with a negative and jealous emotion just as the world does the Saints.

Most people in the Church spend their time trying to reach the same goals in life as the world sees fit, trying to please the mind and heart of society. But only to slowly be subdued into a false sense of security about this world and what it has to offer them while they’re being ever slowly drawn away from the Word of God and His will for their lives in Him.

1 Peter 4:1-12 says: 1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin; 2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God. 3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries: 4 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you: 5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead. 6 For this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit. 7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. 8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. 9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging. 10 As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. 12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:

All of us must understand that Satan that Devil of deception, is trying to delay you from reaching and completing the will that Jesus Christ has for your life upon this Earth.

John 14:15 says: 15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.

John 14:21 says: 21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

John 14:23-24 says: 23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me.

People of God who know Him and those who still don’t know Him, we don’t have much more time. Some of you may die at anytime so don’t say I’m not ready yet.

Ephesians 5:15-16 says: 15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, 16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. In the Bible reads this And whatever ye do , do it heartily, as to the lord, and not to men.

In My conclusion: In the book of Hebrews 3:12-15 it reads: 12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. 13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; 15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

In Jesus name, it is so!
