Jesus talks here to His disciples about the loss of their lives for His sake. This was a very real decision in those days, and it was one that cost most of them their lives.
The question tonight is, would we be prepared to lose our life for Jesus?
This is also a very real question in today's woke world. Are we standing up for Jesus? Or are we accepting what is happening in our world and staying silent because we are to afraid to stand for Jesus?
We cannot silent about all the woke and still be for Jesus. And unfortunately for every Christ follower, we are either for Jesus or against Jesus.
So will we accept the things of this world? Will we condone gender neutrality? Will we condone abortion? Will we say nothing or will we say something?
Yesterday I read a well written article that Howard Sackstein wrote about the Jewish nation. And it was well written until the end. Suddenly he equates himself to Jesus. Worse still, he calls Jesus an over opinionated Jew who was crucified.
Will we be quiet and accept this?
When we get to Heaven, we will answer for our lives. I do not want to stand in front of Jesus only for Him to turn around and say "I never knew you". That would be dreadful.
Let us decide tonight - for Jesus or against Jesus? Let us take a decision to stand for Jesus. It is an eternal decision.
And yes, it is a salvation issue!
Prayer: ABBA FATHER, today I thank YOU that I can choose to be for Jesus or against Jesus. You have blessed me with free will to choose. FATHER I choose to be for Jesus and I humbly pray that YOU always give me the courage to stand for the Truth, for Jesus. I pray this in the Holy name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Stay faithfully Jesus blessed today!
