Whose Words of Approval?

Whose Words Of Approval?

"There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat." Matthew 26:7

One day when Jesus was eating at the house of Simon the leper, a woman with an alabaster box came and poured the expensive ointment that was in the box upon His head. When she did, the whole house began to talk. The Pharisees began to point out this woman's reputation. The disciples began to criticize her act calling it a waste. But she continued anyway. She didn't let what they said about her, their opinions, their accusations stop her from pouring her "worship/love" out on Jesus.

When you demonstrate your worship to the Lord, when you make sacrifices for Him, when you are unreserved in your devotion to Him, when you are giving Him your all, when you have made Him Lord of your life, there will always be someone who will make it their business to "talk about you" and try to stop you from doing so. They will criticize you. They will condemn you. They will accuse you of being fanatical, too spiritual and thinking you are holier. They will tell you that you don't have to do all that- it's not necessary. And it won't be just the people who are sinners out in the world- it will be the church people too.

That day in the house were the Pharisees and the disciples, and as we said, they both had something critical to say about this woman's actions. I can understand the Pharisee's criticism but I can't the disciples. The Pharisees just talked about her reputation and criticized Jesus for allowing this woman to touch Him. The disciples, on the other hand, criticized her act of love and worship toward Jesus. They had been with Jesus for three years. They had seen His miracles. They knew He was the Son of God. They heard His teachings. They recognized His Lordship. But they thought she had wasted something valuable on Him. They, of all people, should have known that you can't get anymore valuable than Jesus. And what we do for Him is never a waste.

The point I am trying to get to and want to leave you with is this: people, in and out of the church, will always talk about your service, devotion and love of Jesus. But don't let what they say stop you. What they say is not what really matters. What matters is what Jesus says. If He accepts it, that is all that matters. If He is pleased by it, that's all that counts. It is His approval that we are after. Those in the room that day didn't approve of what was going on, but Jesus did. So as far as this woman was concerned that was all that mattered. As long as Jesus was pleased, she didn't care whether others were or not.

Have a great day. Someone will always criticize your worship and love of Jesus, but as long as He is pleased with it that is all that matters.

"Ask For Directions"

In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." Proverbs 3:6

In the verse above the Lord said to "acknowledge Him in 'all' your ways". When God says "all" you have to wonder why some Christians don't understand that He really does mean "ALL". He didn't say acknowledge Him in some of your ways. Or in only the things you can't figure out. He didn't say in the small decisions only, or vice versa, just in the big ones. He didn't say to acknowledge Him as a last resort.

Some people will tell you that you don't have to acknowledge Him in everything or pray about everything. They'll tell you that "God gives you common sense". They'll tell you that you shouldn't bother God with everything. They will also tell you that the thing you are asking is trivial. They will say that you are just being "too spiritual".

I don't think it is being "too spiritual", I consider it doing exactly what God said to do in His word. I also don't think that we have the ability to make decisions- any decision- on our own. When we don't acknowledge Him but lean to our own understanding, aren't we saying that we are smarter than God? Are we? Can we see how the decision we make will affect us down the road? Can we see what the outcome will be because of what we decided to do? We may have been given "common sense" but common sense can't discern spiritual things. It can't discern whether God or a spirit is behind the thing that is presented to us.

When I drive through a new town, I am going through unfamiliar territory. I need to know how to navigate through it to reach my destination. So I look for road signs and markers. I look for the signs that point me in the right direction. How foolish would it be for me to decide that I can drive to a certain destination in a place I have never been before without enquiring of a map, road signs or a person to give me directions. I wouldn't make it to the right place. The problem wouldn't be because I am not a smart person or an educated person. It wouldn't be because I don't know how to drive, that I don't have common sense or that I can't read the signs. The problem would be because it is impossible for me to do it without help. We have to acknowledge the Lord in all our ways for the same reason. It is impossible for us to know what to do without His help. If we could we wouldn't need God... and, boy, do we need Him.

Have a great day. We have to acknowledge the Lord in ALL our ways if we are going to make the right decision.

"One On One Encounter"

"And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment." Matthew 9:20

You all know the story of this woman with the issue of blood. She had the disease for twelve years. She went to doctor after doctor and could not be healed. She spent all her money seeking a cure and still found none. It wasn't until she had a personal, one on one, encounter with Jesus that she was healed and delivered from her disease.

There are some things that we need in our life that we just can't get from anywhere or anyone else except Jesus. We can't get it from the doctors, from relationships, our monies can't buy it, we can't find it in a recovery program, through self help seminars, through church membership, through counseling or through any other source of man. This woman put her hope in the medical field and they let her down. She put her confidence in her finances to provide a way, but they ran out. It wasn't until she got close to Jesus and had a personal encounter with Him that she received her healing, deliverance and her life back.

Whatever it is that you need this morning, stop looking to man or this world's resources to meet the need. There are some things that are impossible to receive anywhere else except through Jesus. Man can't give you peace; they can't deliver you; they can't heal you; they can't give you salvation or abundant life; they can't give you rest, joy or strength. Only Jesus can do this and He does it through a one on one, personal encounter with Him. So draw close and near to Him. Press into His presence and don't stop short until you have touched His "hem" and heard Him say, "Daughter/Son". That's the place where your need will be met.

Have a great day. Some things that we need can only be received through a one on one encounter with Jesus.

This Not a Political Platform!

Due to the fact that I have asked (nicely) a certain contact to not place political messages into my guest book here at Multiply..I have temporally removed my Guest book. And removed this contact from my list..they may be a Christian and I may in part agree with somethings they say and write..this guest book nor this blog is a political platform to feed through..that is what their own blogs are for..although I may at times write somethings that may be of interest politically..and also how it relates in our Christian lives...this is not the purpose of my blog. Mostly I just want to be a blessing by posting Christian Devotions, Articles, Videos, and personal messages from time to time. I hope all my contacts, understand..I appreciate all the uplifting messages many of you have posted into my Guest book. May God Richly bless You!! love, Aalie

Happy Mother's Day

Wishing You a Blessed and Happy Mother's Day!

Love, Alice (Aalie)

What Does God Require Of Us in This Present Time?

Why are we here in this world? What does God require of us as born again believers in Christ? Are we on our way to heaven..and can say "us 4 and no more"? Or are we here to witness to the world that Christ came and died in our place and that one day He is coming back to take us to be with Him forever and ever. Our main goal should be that we take others with us to heaven. 'It is appointed unto man once to die and after this the judgement." Heb. 9:27. We are supposed to "go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature" .

What is the Gospel? It is the "Good News" that Jesus came into this world to die for sinners. And that whosoever would believe on Him should not perish ..but have eternal life. (Read John 3:16) You see... God is love...He loves the world..he loves you and me..He loves our President, He loves all those who are in leadership in our country and around the world..that is why He sent His Son to die on the cross of Calvary.

He does not like some of the things that are happening in our country..He does not like some of the things we and others may do...but He is long suffering and not willing that any should perish.

As Christians it is our responsibility to tell folks that they can escape judgement by accepting what Christ did on the cross for them..and repent of their sins.

Because the Bible declares that we...

"Don't withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it." Proverbs3:27
"I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, be made for all men: for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth." 1 Timothy 2:1-4.

We need to pray that our leaders will love the truth:

"And with all deception of wickedness for those who are being lost, because they didn't receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. Because of this, God sends them a working of error, that they should believe a lie." 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12.

We need to pray that our leaders will have wisdom:

"Get wisdom. Get understanding. Don't forget, neither swerve from the words of my mouth. Don't forsake her, and she will preserve you. Love her, and she will keep you. Wisdom is supreme. Get wisdom. Yes, though it costs all your possessions, get understanding. Esteem her, and she will exalt you. She will bring you to honor, when you embrace her." Proverbs 4:5-8.
"Your commandments make me wiser than my enemies, for your commandments are always with me. I have more understanding than all my teachers, for your testimonies are my meditation. I understand more than the aged, because I have kept your precepts." Psalm 119:98-100.

We need to pray that our leaders will display courage and integrity:

"He who walks blamelessly walks surely, but he who perverts his ways will be found out." Proverbs 10:9.
"The integrity of the upright shall guide them, but the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them." Proverbs 11:3.

We need to pray that our leaders will be sharp in insight and quick to discern:

"Test all things, and hold firmly that which is good. Abstain from every form of evil."1 Thessalonians5:21,22.
"Beloved, don't believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world." 1 John 4:1.

We need to pray that our leaders will surround themselves with good staff members and advisers:

"Blessed is the man who doesn't walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the way of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers." Psalm 1:1.
"If a ruler listens to lies, all of his officials are wicked." Proverbs 29:12.
"For by wise guidance you wage your war; and victory is in many advisers." Proverbs 24:6.

We need to pray that our leaders will enjoy God's protection over themselves and their families:

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we won't be afraid, though the earth changes, though the mountains are shaken into the heart of the seas; Though the waters of it roar and are troubled, though the mountains tremble with their swelling." Psalm 46:1-3

Whether we like it or not those who are in authority are ministers of God's service:

Let every soul be in subjection to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God. Therefore he who resists the authority, withstands the ordinance of God; and those who withstand will receive to themselves judgment. For rulers are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Do you desire to have no fear of the authority? Do that which is good, and you will have praise from the same, for he is a servant of God to you for good. But if you do that which is evil, be afraid, for he doesn't bear the sword in vain; for he is a minister of God, an avenger for wrath to him who does evil. Therefore you need to be in subjection, not only because of the wrath, but also for conscience' sake. For this reason you also pay taxes, for they are ministers of God's service, attending continually on this very thing. Romans 13:1-6

We read in the Bible that the Anti-christ is coming..and already there are many anti-christs..they are against Christ. The Bible warns us of this. We know that one day there will be a one world government, one world currency, the False Prophet..and yes there are already many false prophets..and we know that one day people will not be able to buy or sell anything without the mark of 666 in their hand or forehead..we know these things are coming..dangerous things are ahead for those living on this earth during that time..yet we are COMMANDED to pray for those in leadership..because not only did Jesus die for them,,but He loves them and wants to save them..we need to DO what the BIBLE says we should do..not just what we think we should do..or what we want to do.

..after all it is God's Word..His love letter to us all..and His guidemap for us so that we will not lose our way..and we can keep our eyes on Him..and He is the hope of this world.... not the government.

The Bible says that "He is coming for those who are looking for Him."..are we looking for Christ..or are we looking for the Anti-Christ?

I hope we are looking for our soon coming King, Jesus Christ..He is our Blessed Hope!

Love, Aalie (Alice)

"Refused"

"Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions." Matthew 19:21,22

When I went to the mailbox the other day, I discovered two of my newsletters had been returned to me. They were both from the same person. The reason that was printed on the envelope as to why they were returned was- "refused". They were refused by the recipient. In order to be on the mailing list you have to request to be added. So why would this person request to be added then later refuse them? (I have found out since, because I know this person personally, that this was a mistake and they do want to remain on the list.)

But this incident made me think about how we are with the Lord sometimes. We say we want Him in our lives. We make a decision for Him. We invite Him to be our Lord and Savior. We say we want Him to lead and direct our lives. We make the choice for Him, He doesn't force Himself on us, yet we often "refuse" Him. We "refuse" His leading when He is leading us in a way that we do not want to go. We "refuse" His instructions when there is a sacrifice on our parts that is involved. We "refuse" His words when He tells us something we don't want to hear. We "refuse" to obey when what He requires conflicts with what we want.

The rich young ruler was the one who came seeking Jesus out. He was the one who asked what he had to do to have eternal life. He was the one who wanted an answer, yet when he got it... he "refused" it. Do you have the same testimony as this young man? Is this where you are today? Have you received Jesus as Savior and Lord, yet you are "refusing" to listen to His commands and obey them? If this is the case, then you will wind up in the same state as this young man- sorrowful and away from Jesus. Jesus made Himself available to you. You received Him by asking Him into your life. So will you choose to follow Him or refuse to follow?

Have a great day. There is no way you can choose to follow Him then refuse to obey Him and think that you are still following Him.
