SHAKE THE DUST OFF (2-04-10)

Mark 6:11
“Whatever place does not welcome you or listen to you, leave there and shake the dust off your feet in testimony against them.”
------------------------------------------------

If I should have listened in the first place, I should not be in a bad situation that I am now…yes, if I should have listened.

Familiar thoughts? Maybe, you uttered this line yesterday, or maybe just this morning.

Sometimes people won’t listen. It could be a friend, or a family member… or it could be you.

No amount of reasoning or logic will convince you.
No amount of prayer moves you.
No amount of attention shown to you or energy exerted in your behalf will bring you on board with God’s vision for your life.

And then you may feel God just stopped talking to you. But that doesn’t mean He stopped loving you. He does, and He always does love you.

And if you are ready to listen, just turn to Him in prayers. He is always listening for your cries, for your supplications, for your request. And most of all, he is always waiting for your words of love.

Come on, listen to Him and never let Him leave your heart ever again.


Let us pray +

Almighty Father, thank you for your grace. Thank you for your mercy. Thank you for your gospel. Please help me to not take rejection of your message by others personally. Instead, dear Father, please use me to help others understand that they are making a decision about their life, their sins, their eternal destiny, and the source of their grace. Amen +

Lord, you are exalted over all.
