Do You Hear Him Now?

Matthew 9:9 " And Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of customs: and he saith unto him, follow me, and he rose, and followed Him".
Follow Me: These are the instructions given us by our Savior, have you answered the call. He said to take up our cross, deny our self daily and follow Him. He is the way so let us follow Him. He is the way out of darkness, for he is the light of the world, so follow Him. The way out of damnation, for in Him is our salvation. The way out of confusion, for He is our Prince of Peace. The way out of sin, for he is the Savior, so let us answer the call and follow Him.


Here we have Jesus, on His mission journey. He was delivering many from the captivity of sin when he passed by and saw a man named Matthew sitting collecting taxes. Jesus saw him and said follow me. Matthew then raised up and in answering the call, he followed Jesus. He didn't question Him, he didn't try to finish up what he was doing, he didn't go back to doing that which Jesus had called him from ,it says he rose up and followed Him.Jesus is passing through the lives of many today, calling them out from among this world to follow Him.Do you hear him calling you at your heart strings? Do you hear Him standing at the door knocking? Don't let salvation pass you by.Rise up and follow Him. .He calling you, He came to save you, answer the call and follow Him.

Jesus asked Matthew a tax collector to follow Him and become a soul collector.He is calling today for us to leave that of the world and become builders of the Kingdom of heaven. Let us follow Him with our whole hearts, walk in the truth of His word and by the power of His Spirit, that others might answer the call and follow Christ to Glory.
