It Is About Jesus

Philippians 2:21 "For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's".

We live in a me and my society today, and the sad thing is the house of God is steadily moving in the same direction. Christianity is not about what you can get, but more about what you can give. We have been called out and set aside to do the work of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. Called to be Christ like and thus we should be about His will and not our wants.

Ours is a life of sacrifice and service, we are to lose our life to save it and have to deny our self to follow Jesus. many of the house of God is slowly and maybe unaware making this thing about them, and their ministry. We have gotten carried away with various titles and positions and have left the work of Christ undone. With all that Paul knew and accomplished he looked at his self as only a servant a bond slave for the Lord as he went out and did the work of Christ he was chosen to do. Let us do away with the selfish self promotion of our thing and lift up the name of Jesus and be about our Fathers business.

Jesus said upon this rock I build my church, but we have taken away from building up His church and kingdom and have shifted our focus on the building of our ministries and our little kingdoms. God is not impressed with the titles and positions we elevate our selves to and the sinner doesn't care what you call yourself. So let us lay aside that weight that has hindered our being about the will of Christ and go into the gleaning fields and bring in the sheaves.
