My dear brothers and sisters I would like to share with you what God has confirmed me.There are times when we think that getting close to God is getting in our bedroom alone and start praying. I must say that is a very important part of a christian's life. When we pray we communicate with God.
We do so much during the day and in all that we do we can praise God.
We can praise God while we are working in our jobs, while we are drinving the car, even if we are in the kitchen cooking or singing christian cohrous while taking a shower. Thinking of a Bible Verse in our mind is meditating and while meditating we are in contact with God. By doing this we are pleasing God and if we please Him we are intimateing with Him.
Praise God for all the good things that have happened in your life. Recognize God is almighty and loveing. Doing this is praiseing God. Say constantly and every minute that God is almighty and loveing. Tell Him he has control of your life and every situation no matter what it is. Tell your problem how big is your God. The moment well come when you will beleave what you are saying and you will feel rejoyced because God will always be there with you.
"Noé" pleased God with his life and choosed him and his family to start humanity again. He was the only one found fair in the whole world. God told him He would finish with humanity because of their sinning life. God told him that it would rain 40 days and 40 nights. He gave "Noé" instructions and told him to build an ark. "Noé" could have built the ark his way and it would have been easier for him. But he felt pleasure in pleasing God and he trusted Him so he obeyed God. Everybody made fun of him because it had never rained on earth but he didn't care. "Noé" trusted God and was totally faithfull to Him. "Noé" spent 120 years building that ark but he did it because God told him to do it. God told him to gather two of each animal (male and female). That must have been a hard task but God told him to do it and he trusted God so he obeyed Him. "Noé" obeyed each one of the instructions God gave him, prepareing him for that moment. He did not complain and just worked hard to complete God's demand. He gathered his family in the ark and all the animal (two of each, male and female) and all that they needed to survive the flood that would occure.
After those 40 days and 40 nights it stopped raining and "Noé" sent a peageon because he wanted to know if there was land. The peageon came back because he found no place to land. He sent the peageon a second time and the peageon came back with a leaf in his peak which meant the water was going down. "Noé" was sure of his God and obeyed all the instructions God gave him. "Noé" was faithfull to God and God was faithfull to "Noé". Humanity was finished and started over with his sons and their wifes.
My dear brothers and sisters I'm sure you love your family and your desire is to please them. Why not please God who loves you so much? You were created for a purpose and that is pleasing God. You belong to him and that is what he expects.
My dear brothers and sisters read your Bible. If you want to have God's word always in your mind you have to read the Bible, study it and learn it. God's word will show you the way while you intimate with Him.
GOD LOVES YOU AND SO DO I!
