The call to follow Jesus.

Jesus is calling all of us to follow Him and be blessed.

Luke  5:27 And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow me.  5:28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him.

How do you follow Him.

J: Journeying to the promised heaven 

Numbers  10:29 And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite, Moses’ father in law, We are journeying unto the place of which the LORD said, I will give it you: come thou with us, and we will do thee good: for the LORD hath spoken good concerning Israel.

E: Escape damnation of hell 

Matthew  23:33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

S: Seek God first.

Matthew  6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

U: Unmovable. 

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.

S: Search the scriptures.

John  5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

2 Timothy  2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

His grace will be sufficient for you.

2 Corinthians  9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:

You will live eternally with Him and be fulfilled here on earth beyond your widest dreams.

John  12:26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

Let us pray.
