The Way We Look at Him


The Way We Look at Him

Have you ever been in love?

There is something about looking at someone for the first time

and feeling love and passion for them.

The way we look at each other is so full of fire.

Our faces are radiant.

I remember the way my wife looked at me when we first met.

It was so fulfilling.

I miss that and I know she misses that too.

Do you remember the first time you met Christ?

When we gave our hearts to Him we felt

so much passion toward Him

and we looked at Him with so much love.

Is it possible that He enjoyed our love, passion,

and the way we looked at Him?

I personally believe that He enjoys the way we look at Him.

Are we looking at Him the way we used to?

Is He thirsty for our passionate looks?

Absolutely.

What can we do to get back to that place?

Ask Him to stir your heart to look at Him like you did when you first met.

Look at Him in your heart every day like you just met Him for the first time

because He is God and will reveal Himself every day in a new way.

Tell Him every single day that you are glad you met Him.

Think new thoughts toward Him every single day.

Worship Him like you have just discovered Him and been discovered by Him.

Tell Him things you never told Him before.

Walk with Him the way you never walked before.

Touch Him like you never touched Him before.

Be so honest with Him like you have never been before.

Tap into your true feelings for Him and meditate on them.

Look at Jesus for the first time again today.

From Getting to Giving

From Getting to Giving I had a meeting with a minister today and it was very hard for me. When I got back home, I asked the Lord to tell me the reason. I felt He said that I went to the meeting to receive, not to give. I went to the meeting to get some possible connection for future ministry. May the Lord change our attitude from getting to giving . Selfishness will creep in on us and jump on our shoulders. No matter what we do, if we do it to gain something, we will never be satisfied. Most of our giving is conditional, and conditional acts open the door for our old nature to kick in. Unconditional acts open the door for our new nature to come in. When our new nature rules, there is peace and comfort in the Spirit. But when our old nature rules, there is agony and discomfort. May we allow the Spirit of God to come out of us through our unconditional acts and thoughts. From Kamran Yaraei’s Book “Food For The Heart”.

He Comes to Kill

He Comes to Kill When facing a thief with a gun in our houses or workplaces, we think that if we give him all of our money, then he will leave us alone and let us live. Sometimes we have the same mindset when we meet Jesus. We believe that if we give everything we have to the Lord, and serve Him well, then He might just let us live. But the point is this: The Lord doesn’t come to steal, but to kill. He is not after our possessions, He is after our flesh—our old, sinful nature. The Lord will use all of our daily struggles to kill our flesh. Our good works and giving will not stop Him from doing this. “Whoever seeks to keep his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it” (Luke 17:33). It is very important to know that as we get closer to the Lord, we get closer to the death of our flesh. This should be great news to us. He wants us to get close enough that He can kill our old nature, which is thoroughly described in Galatians 5:19-20: Now the works of the flesh are ev...
