God thinking XIII - Living To Your Full Potential 8

"Let God have you.

You must be careful not to allow your experience with God to be less than it can be because you are trying to appease others.

It’s time to let God have His way with you.  Others have had their way long enough. 

Don’t wait another day to break away from every negative statement, every faithless word, every man made doctrine, every word spoken against our faith and believe and trust God.

I wrote this portion over and over again, trying to leave out the sting that I kept feeling.  But again and again the Lord kept pressing me with His Word.

Matthew 10:32-38

V232 “Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.
V33 "But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

V34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

V35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

V36 And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household.

V37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

V38 And he that taketh not his cross and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.
