daily follow God


 

Following Jesus is not a Sunday thing.  Following Jesus is not a some time thing. Following Jesus is not a some day thing.

 

Following Jesus is a daily thing.  Following is important.  He is like air.  We need Him.  And we need Him daily.  That is why I believe and share and live so that myself and others will come in to contact with Him and experience Him.

 

Matthew 6:11  NASB

Give us this day our daily bread.

 

That is part of the “Lord’s Prayer” where Jesus taught those who followed Him that it is daily we need God to fill us, guide us and for us to daily come to Him.

 

Psalm 145:2  NLT

I will praise you every day; yes, I will praise you forever.

 

It was a daily commitment from David to praise the Lord.  He couldn’t let a day go by that he would miss seeking God, praising God and spending time in His presence.

 

Hebrews 3:13  NLT

You must warn each other every day, while it is still “today,” so that none of you will be deceived by sin and hardened against God.

 

What happens when we don’t seek God and praise God daily?  Our hearts will drift another direction.  We may become callous toward God and His ways.  That is why we daily seek God and encourage others to go to God daily.

 

It is important if you follow God to follow Him every single day.  Make that your commitment.  Daily.  Seek the Lord.  See how good He is.

 

Psalm 68:19  NASB

Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden, The God who is our salvation. Selah


Yesterday I had the opportunity to share with our local college baseball team, and I used the following verse.  But I want to remind each of us as well that we can and must seek God each day.


Matthew 6:33  NLT  

Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.


Daily follow God.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you ...

wash feet, sharing hope

  John 13:4-5,14 NLT  So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him… 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. Jesus set the example we follow.  He served.  He valued and gave value to others.  That is why we choose to serve. For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet.  It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives.  Jesus said we should do this.  See the verse above.  Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....
