Knowing JESUS Daily Devotional | December 28, 2019. Enrich and Sustain your relationship with Jesus reading our daily devotional – And have mercy on some, who are doubting; save others, snatching them out of the fire; and on some have mercy but with fear, loathing even the clothing spotted and polluted by their shameless immoral freedom. – Jude 1:22-23
Beloved, even though humanity the crown of the creation of God failed Him beyond His comprehension, through the disobedience of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden.
He had not changed in His preparedness to ensure the lost dignity is restored back to them, especially you.
Praise God you are saved, hallelujah.
But then His passion is to see that converted believers like you are compassionate enough to reach out in love to all unsaved people in their world of influence and be tirelessly used to facilitate their salvation.
Beloved are you tirelessly labouring to be used of God to facilitate the salvation of your unsaved spouse, children, siblings, parents, close and extended family members, in laws, neighbors and colleagues etc?
See what the Bible says.
Jud 1:22 — 23 And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
Beloved the truth is that if you don’t do anything about the salvation of people in your world of influence, they shall be damned, but their blood shall be required in your hands.
Even though it is God’s will for them to be saved, having done everything through Christ to guarantee their salvation, but without a preacher or you in particular, preaching to them, they shall not be saved.
They shall be damned but their blood shall be required in your hands. Don’t ever forget.
Rom 10:13 — 15 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
Ezk 3:17 — 21 Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me. When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul. Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand. Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.
Beloved, see the will of God for unsaved people in your world of influence..
Ezekiel 33:11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
1Ti 2:3 — 4 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Beloved, God is tirelessly looking for compassionate labourer to join forces with Him and saved the lost world.
Will He find you? Will you join forces with Him and rescue the perishing in your world of influence? Will you be used to turn them to righteousness?
May the Lord depend on you in particular in Jesus name.
1 Corinthians 3:9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.
Ezk 22:30 — 31 And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none. Therefore have I poured out mine indignation upon them; I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath: their own way have I recompensed upon their heads, saith the Lord God.
Daniel 12:3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever
Beloved, what God expects from you was done by Rahab the harlot. When she saw that her life was secured from destruction having saved the two spies Joshua sent to Jericho, she interceded for everyone in her world of influence and secured their salvation from destruction.
See it yourself.
Jos 2:12 — 13 Now therefore, I pray you, swear unto me by the Lord, since I have shewed you kindness, that ye will also shew kindness unto my father’s house, and give me a true token: And that ye will save alive my father, and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.
So go and do likewise from now till Christ comes.
Dearly beloved, do you know that Jesus Christ our Lord apart from redeeming the lost world and restoring lost dignity at Eden back to them, had a very deep unchanging passion.
This was His deep passion during His earthly ministry and even now that He had returned back to heaven. See His unchanging passion.
Luke 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
John 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Luk 9:51 — 56 And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem, And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him. And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem. And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. For the Son of man is not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.
This compelling passion of His was passed on to believers in Bible days and by extension believers of all ages and that includes you in particular.
Luke 19:13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
Dearly Beloved, the blessed Holy Spirit affirmed this same compelling passion of Jesus Christ, severally in the Bible. See them.
Jud 1:22 — 23 And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
Jam 5:19 — 20 Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him; Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.
1 John 5:16 If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
Dearly beloved, Jesus Christ our Lord and savior has given you example to follow, you shall have no excuse for not doing it. I am persuaded God shall use you to do so and you shall be rewarded in eternity in Jesus name.
1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
1Co 9:16 — 23 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel! For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me. What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel. For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more. And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law. To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some. And this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.
Col 3:23 — 24 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
Friend, their is something gracious and glorious that must not elude you. It shall not elude you in particular in Jesus name.
Immediately after the dawning rapture, the raptured saints shall be entertained in the marriage supper of the Lamb. This venue is where faithful and compassionate believers like you shall be recognized and rewarded for tireless service done for Christ in love.
Those who gave themselves unreservedly for the salvation of others shall be rewarded.
Friend are you presently in compassion reaching out to the lost in your world of influence? See what the scriptures says.
Jud 1:22 — 23 And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
Friend, see how the scriptures encouraged saved believers to serve Christ now and be rewarded at eternity.
1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Mal 3:16 — 18 Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name. And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him. Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.
1 Peter 1:4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you
Friend, this was what Paul apostle gave himself to when he was on this side of heaven and Christ promised him a great reward, even in his life time. See it yourself.
2Ti 4:7 — 8 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
But then the truth is that you also can expect same reward if you reach out in love to the lost in your world of influence. This is because God has made Paul apostle a pattern for believers of all ages and that includes you in particular.
1 Timothy 1:16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
May the good Lord depend on you in particular in Jesus name.
