SEEK GOD AND HE WILL BE FOUND
Today's chapter is Jeremiah
29
Some people can't see any hope anywhere. Tragically, they
give up and let themselves sink into despair. Others try to escape
from it all.
Others get caught in a destructive web in
their longing for real life. It can be drugs, abuse of any kind, or
gambling, excessive addiction to games or social media.
Others
again become addicted to the pursuit of success, money,
career.
Millions of people, like mountain climbers, show
enormous courage and great determination to get there, but when they
get there they find nothing but emptiness.
In the
religious supermarket and church life, there are also beautiful,
dazzling offers. In the old days it was filled with healthy, broad
Christian preaching. Unfortunately, the supernatural is almost
vacuumed out of many churches today, in order to get people talking.
Instead, light, colors, music and lifestyle preaching come.
We
have met people in our network who had experienced tongues, prophecy
and strong presence of God on a trip abroad.
They asked
seekers: Is there anything like this in Denmark near us and
where?
People today seek the supernatural, and are we in some
places taking the supernatural out of our church services, in order
to become "seeker-friendly"?
We need as
Christians and congregations to fade out with the transforming power
of the gospel:
IT IS ALSO TRANSFORMING TODAY.
May God
help us in a time when everything is changing, and unfortunately not
always for the better.
We are not against renewal and other
ways, but PAUL PREACHED JESUS and the evangelist who perhaps
reached the furthest with the gospel in recent times, Billy Graham,
he preached JESUS - Heaven and hell.
We can only
find God if we really want to meet him. God says in the Bible:
I
love those who love me, and those who seek me will find me.
He
gives us this promise: I know the plans I have for you, plans for
prosperity and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
When you call on me and pray to me, I will hear you. When you seek
me, you will find me. When you search for me with all your heart, I
will be found by you. Jeremiah 29:11-15
amen
