ARE YOU WANTING OR ARE YOU CONTENT?

Posted on by

 Are we supposed to want something? The Prophet Daniel and his fellows saw a hand writing on the wall, which you can read about in Daniel Chapter 5. The hand wrote ME’-NE, ME’-NE, TE’-KEL, U-PHARSIN, on the wall, which­­­­ means “ You are weighed in the balances and are found wanting.”  “And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.” ( 1 Timothy 6:8-12). “Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” ( Hebrews 13:5). It seems that the heart of man can never be satisfied. We will always want more and more. As soon as we get what we want we want something else, or more, or better. This is the opposite of what the Bible teaches us. In fact the Scripture says; “ Let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.” ( James 1:4). “ Mark the perfect man, and behold the up right: for the end of that man is peace.” ( Psalm 37:37). If we delight ourselves in the Lord, he will give us the desires of our heart. ( Psalm 37:4). This verse shows us that we should just want more and more of Jesus, and his Love, and his Word, and the Holy Spirit! Amen?King David was a man after God’s own heart. Are you? ( Acts 13:22). “ Whom have I in Heaven but thee? And there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.” ( Psalm 73:25). Beloved if we desire contentment we need to ask the Lord to help us follow these verses. “ But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” (Matthew 6:33). Of course if we just want more of Jesus, then we will also want everyone to know him too!

The best, most rewarding, most fulfilling, most important, most fun, and the most exciting job in the world is Preaching the Gospel! God expects everyone that is saved to preach the Gospel. You can be a missionary no matter what else you are doing. Whether you are working your job, or a student, or in the military, or whatever you are doing, if you just remember that your main job is to be a witness and help others to know Jesus! A Missionary is someone who is on a mission. You are either a Missionary or a mission field. Which are you? It’s like the Lady said when someone asked her how her day went? She said well today I witnessed to many people about Jesus and helped the poor and sick and needy. Her friend said, how did you do all that? You were here cleaning this house all day. She replied because I prayed for and helped the Missionaries by sending a love gift to them to help in their work for the Lord so that makes me a part of what they are doing, and I get to share in their rewards. Missionaries are on the top of Gods list. People you win or help win to the Lord will be your friends and grateful brothers and sisters forever. Lay up treasures in Heaven by obeying the great commission “Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature” (Mark 16:15) You can obey this great commandment by helping others who are on the mission field if you can’t personally be there yourself, and by praying for them. Please pray for our ministry, we are trying to reach China and India with the good news of the Gospel while we can, because this door maybe closing soon. Jesus said: “I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.” (John 9:4) 

 

Say this prayer if you want to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. I believe you died on the cross for my sins ,and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen
