WEEKEND POWER THOUGHT - GOD'S WORD

And Enoch walked with God; and he was not for God took him.
Genesis 5:24

“Who shall I say has sent me?” Moses asked. “I AM has sent you.” Moses must have concluded God is I AM, and Moses, like Enoch, was not. When John the Baptist was asked if he were Messiah, he emphatically answered, “I am not.” As a culture, a body and individuals we need to understand with Enoch, Moses and John that God IS, and we are not. Most of the time we try to figure out why was I born, who am I, where should I be, where am I going, what should I be doing – self-absorption is endless and leads to nothingness. We need to be like Enoch. He walked with and pleased God. Only when we get our eyes of self and on I AM, will we walk in endless joy and eternal purpose.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5-6

What do you use for your life's compass? No matter how insightful, wise, experienced, or knowledgeable we may be, only God can guide our steps properly. He asks us to trust Him and His wisdom. When we do we realize that our paths are a lot straighter and our destinations are a lot closer.

WEEKEND POWER THOUGHT - GOD'S WORD

We know that our old self was nailed to the cross with Him in order that our body [which is the instrument] of sin might be made ineffective and inactive for evil, that we might no longer be the slaves of sin.
Romans 6:6

The blood can wash away my sins, but it cannot wash away my “old man.” For this we are in need of the Cross, that the old man may be crucified. Though the blood deals with sins, it is the Cross that deals with the sinner.

When angry, do not sin; do not ever let your wrath (your exasperation, your fury or indignation) last until the sun goes down.
Ephesians 4:26

God doesn’t tell us to never be angry; we’re human and we have emotions. What He does tell us to do is make peace before the sun sets; because the person who angers you, God knew would also control you. And no one is to have control over us except the Lord Jesus Himself. Forgiveness and peace lead to freedom.
