Come Unto Me

 Come Unto Me.

Jesus states in Matthew‬ ‭11:28‬ ‭‬‬, “Come unto me... 

If you’re weary, Jesus says, “Come unto me.” If you’re bitter, His Word says He’ll give you a new heart — a heart of flesh. If you’re full of anxiety, worry and fear, His Word says to cast your cares, fears, worries and anxiety to God — He cares for you. 

If your vision is dry and your heart is tired of trying, Jesus said come unto me. Let His Word heal you. Let His Word make your soul happy. Let His peace overtake you. Let His joy fill your soul. Let His Word comfort you, protect you and guide you all the days of your life. Let His Word go before you and establish your path. 

Surrender to Him and let His power crush every mountain and obstacle in your way. Let His Word heal your heart. He will never be defeated. Depression cannot stand in His presence. Oppression cannot stand in His presence. Rejection cannot stand in His presence. When you surrender to God, He will fight on your behalf. 

Every enemy must bow to Him. Surrender to God, He is bigger than any mountain that you face. Stand still and surrender to God’s mighty hand and the enemy of depression, oppression, rejection, condemnation, guilt, shame, defeat, anxiety and the spirit of heaviness you will see no more.

“INTEGRITY”

 “INTEGRITY”

I’ve heard a lot about integrity over the last little while. What is integrity? When most people are asked they go to the default definition of “doing the right thing even when no one is around or looking”. While this definition is correct it isn’t a complete definition. 

The complete or more accurate definition is “remaining steadfast and firm to the Word of God without hypocrisy while others are compromising the gospel for their own personal preferences and benefit”. 

You see to just “do the right thing” leaves room for personal interpretation and understanding. Unfortunately in our morally decaying world of today what seems right to one person may not be right to the next. Only God can truly define what’s right and wrong. 

When looking for examples of integrity one should look to the hero’s of faith found in the book of Hebrews chapter 11. If you were to look at each of these heroes you would find that at some point each one of them have failed in integrity based on the “do the right thing” definition. The thing these heroes have going for them is that they never compromised the Word of God or their faith in Him! Even while messing up (sinning) they never lost their faith in God.

Don’t succumb to the world’s view and definition of “integrity” where you begin to compromise your faith and relationship with God. Remain firm and steadfast in following the precepts set forth in the Word of God! 

Love you all!
