Christian Awakening
By Eric William
King
As Christians we learn to accept true success, the fact that we truly begin
to understand the fallen human nature and ones need for Jesus the
Christ. The fallen human nature is full of selfishness,
egocentric thoughts and is always trying to impress others outwardly.
This world wants constant reward from overstimulation of the senses.
Most everybody is walking and judging by “sight”. By doing this many have
turned off the reality of the unseen world that surrounds them. People have
learned to let their physical senses dominate them. As Christians we learn to
do everything for God. This is the true spiritual life. Do you have to clean your
house? Do it for God. Do you have to cook dinner? Do it for God. Do you have to
wash the dishes, take care of the yard, wash clothes, etc. etc. Then do it all
for God.
People come up with all sorts of excuses not to read their Bible’s. “I have
already read it? Why read it again?” Yet these same people will eat the same
food, watch the same shows, listen to the same songs, over and over again.
Some talk themselves into thinking; “I have a life; I don’t have time to be
a Christian.” Wow! The fact is, everything we have belongs to God. There is
nothing that you own that is truly “yours”. As Christians we take true joy
in a conscious relationship with Divine Intelligence and the fact that
He is sovereign.
Worldliness does one of two things; it stops true spiritual growth or
causes a false anti-Christian, dark spirituality to manifest – a selfish
spirituality. Unfortunately, people believe that their own fallen concepts
of God or a “higher-power” are “cool” and better than God’s true revelation
of Himself through the person of Jesus Christ.
Sadly, many have had a bad experience with one who called himself or
herself a “Christian”. It is said that “hurt people hurt people”. True
Christianity is indeed hard to find these days. Many are currently experiencing
broken relationships, financial loss, etc. It is my prayer that if you have
been led to read this short article that you would book-mark this site and
begin to truly study your Bible here at “The Shepherds Way” and “Nugget of Truth”.
By developing a true and proper relationship with Divine Intelligence and learning
biblical principles your life will change, behold all things become new.
When a person truly accepts Jesus Christ as his Lord, God, and Savior one
is granted a new state of consciousness. One gains a relationship with Divine
Intelligence through the Living Word of Life – Jesus the Christ.
As a Christian you begin to grow, never reaching perfection but allowing
yourself to remain in constant and honest contact with the one who created you
and loves you – God. It is God who does the changing, it is God
who does the saving and healing. All He asks of us is to trust and obey – to
believe. Our belief in God itself is a gift from the indwelling Holy Spirit – the Comforter.
Little by little we begin to grow into a spiritually mature person. This is
a life process and all Human emotions are involved. In ending these thoughts, I
challenge you to simply believe in Him and trust in Him. Simply accept God’s Truth.
Let Him work in your life and you will begin to truly understand just how
wonderful our God is.
It may be time to truly have a Christian Awakening.
Resting in Him always,
