Where was Your Beginning?
Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. (Jeremiah 1:5 KJV)
I’d like to bring up with the beginning of our lives. We all have beginning points to our life journey. In Genesis 1, we read how this world began and how we were formed. Unfortunately, there are some scientists believe that we were formed from apes (evolution theory). Or they believe that the universal began by big explosion or Big Bang Theory.
We all have beginnings. Even though we came from our mothers’ wombs, God formed us before the mothers would conceive their children. Before we were born, God has planned for our future. We might not hear from the pulpit about God’s plans for our future, because it’s all about our own wills. Hebrews 11:40 says, “God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.”
Because we all have sinned against God (Romans 3:23), we have forgotten our first love with God. Nowadays, we see many unborn children are dying every minute because we have run away from God and decided what we want to do. Since we let open the door for the other religion systems would enter into our homeland, we began to spend more time with the other gods. Even though we don’t have any wooden image of idols, we worship our material possessions. It is sad that we let the parents do the abortion process to murder their own babies. We do not have the right to kill any unborn child in any circumstance. President or judge doesn’t have the right to endorse this unlawful procedure. But we continue to see and hear that our politicians would keep endorsing the unlawful legislations, such as LGBT Rights, homosexual marriage, abortion, taking the prayer away from the public arena, replace the Christianity with the other religions, and more. Most televangelists don’t preach the gospel from the Bible anymore, because it’s all about me, myself, and I. What I can do to receive the blessing (money) from God?
Where is your first love with God? God can bless you, but according to His will. In Isaiah 58:8-9 says, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.” We need to establish our relationship with Him. Do you want new beginning? Are you exhausted of being someone that you don’t want to be?
Do you want transform your life to spend eternality with Jesus Christ? God planned to send His Son, Jesus Christ, to us to pay our sins, so we can have free access to God and develop personal relationship with Him. Would you like to have personal relationship with God? If you’d like to know Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, I’d like to encourage you to do two simple things. First, confess your sins and invite Jesus Christ to your life. Paul said in Romans 10:9-11, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” There is no sinner prayer formula. Instead, you just talk to God at where you are now. Secondly, I’d like to encourage you to find a good solid biblical teaching church and Christian friends. They can help you to build strong relationship with God.
