My Title: Don't Be Double Minded!
My Verse: 8
"8 Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded."
My Response:
There IS a battle that rages in you. Your PLEASURES are at war within you... we sin because WE LIKE IT. < Don't miss this.
You are your own worst enemy. If you lose the forever perspective, even for an instant, your selfishness and your sin gains a foothold. Your life is but a vapor in the grand scheme of things. Setting your eyes on anything but the kingdom of Jesus is foolish. FOOLISH. Trust the GOD of the universe because He is ALIVE and HE IS TRUSTWORTHY and LOVING!
Don't believe me? DRAW NEAR TO HIM AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS because He's PROMISED to DRAW NEAR to YOU IF YOU DRAW NEAR TO HIM. Don't be double minded! There is a forever story that God is inviting you to be apart of and a forever kingdom investment that hangs in the balance.
My Notes:
Your pleasures are at war within you!
The greatest enemy of all humankind is selfishness!
Don't you know that friendship with the world is enmity with God?
God opposes the proud, but gives GRACE to the humble.
Draw near to God, and He WILL draw near to you!
Cleanse your hands.
Purify your hearts.
Don't be double minded.
You are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.
Retirement is foolish.
IF THE LORD WILLS, we will live and do this or that.
If you fail to do what you know is right it is ALSO sin!
