24/7 DOXA Content, 24th December-MAXIMAXING YOUR TIME WITH THE LORD

FAVOURED greetings, Cherished one. Carnal men do not understand the things of the Spirit, so when they see us do the things we do, they mock us and think we are wasting time. When we go to church, organizing crusades, they think we are wasting our time. But let them know that when we sing, we are not wasting our energy; when we give offerings, we are not wasting our money. When we pray, we are not wasting our voices. When we read and study the holy Bible, we are not wasting our minds. When we walk in integrity, we are honouring the Lord with our lives. Yes, we are born of the Spirit so we go His direction (John 3:6-8).

So much happens when we do the things we do in faith and get committed to the Lord. *We are building up ourselves, strengthened in the Lord and the power of His might (Ephesians 6:10). When we pray we are energised because we have sweet fellowship with the Father of grace (2 Cor 14:2). When we give, our finances are secured and we learn how to conquer greed and selfishness. When we go out to win souls, we are saving many from the kingdom of the devil (Colossians 1:13)* When we attend fellowships, we receive the anointing and refreshment of our spirit, soul and body by the power of the Holy Spirit (Hebrews 10:25). They think we are brainwashed. No! We are rather washed and cleansed by the Word (Eph 5:26).

Beloved, refuse to pay attention to those who are caught in the web of the devil and keep mocking you as a born again Christian. Don’t let their mockery discourage you; let it rather encourage you to love God more and pray for them. Our focal text says Peter refused to forsake Jesus because He saw Him as the only source of the words of eternal life. And enjoying these words from the Master, you are not wasting time. Because from the words of Jesus, you are fed forever and shall never thirst (John 6:35; 4:14). You are maximizing your time with the Lord, not wasting it. You are on the best side. Rejoice forevermore. The rich grace of our Lord Jesus Christ abounds towards you always. Amen!
