How much do you love God?
Acts 21 vs 13
Then Paul answered, what mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? For I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
- When Paul the Apostle wanted to go to Jerusalem to preach the word, everyone tried to persuade him not to go, so he would not be persecuted.
- There was also a prophecy that he would be bound if he go but Paul said he was ready to be bound for Jesus Christ’s sake.
- Paul was ready to be persecuted for Jesus Christ, and he even confessed that he was ready to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
- Are you ready to die for Jesus Christ? How far can you go for the work of Jesus?
- Truly, Paul was persecuted, but Jesus Christ rescued him.
- Unless you love God, God cannot deliver you. The extent of the love you have for God will determine your deliverance. Psalm 91 vs 15 – He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him
- No matter the affliction you are passing through unless you love God, God cannot deliver you. Your deliverance is for service.
- Even if you are not ready to die for Jesus, what are you ready to do for Jesus?
- How much of your money are you ready to spend for Jesus?
- How much of your time are you ready to use for Jesus?
- The answer to these questions will show the love you have for Jesus.
- May the Lord of God overwhelm you in Jesus’ name. Amen
