God gave you a free will, have you perfected it yet?
Genesis 2:15-17 Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it. And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; “but of the tree of knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”
In the beginning God gave man everything he needed and a free will. Everything was perfect and good, and in return God wanted man to love Him as much as He loved man. But man had to be able to choose to love God. If man was never given an evil to choose from, he would have to love God because there was no other choice. That is not the love God wants, He wants a perfected will. One that loves Him because He is God, a will that chooses Him because they love Him and is in need of nothing.
To give God our love we will need to perfect our free will. We must choose to accept His Son as our Savior. He alone is what makes you righteous. He gives you the direct communication you will need to speak to God. Jesus gives you the ability to come boldly to the Throne of God, and ask what you will, in line with God’s word. With His sacrifice you are saved, healed, and have abundant life. Each Gift you will need to claim by faith, by believing it and speaking what you believe, in Jesus name. Stand against every lie the devil tells and quench every fiery dart he has to stop your faith, and believe in God’s word no matter what.
As we take our free will and choose to over come this world by faith in Jesus name, we perfect our free wills. As we over come this world in Jesus name, we turn to God the Father and tell Him we love Him because He is Almighty God, and because of us lining our free will up with His Son we are in need of nothing.
It is then we have perfected our free will God gave us in the beginning. We did in Faith in Jesus name. And we go to God without force from Him.
Do you want your Children to love you because they just love you? Or do you want to force their love to stay around. It is not a perfect free will nor is it perfect love if forced in anyway.
I read an article (or saw an Oprah show) about abused small children. According to this, if given a choice, the abused child would cry to be returned to the abusing parent …….until they knew there was a different way to live. Being ignorant of how other families functioned, they thought that that was the way life is. It was all they knew.
So, it is wonderful to know the difference and to be allowed to choose in Jesus’ name. AMEN
First, I need to take this opportunity to thank everyone here at AT THE RIGHT HAND.NET for coming to The Wall. Our Saturday show went well, but I really would’ve wanted you to see the Sunday show. The whole play went off without a hitch and we had most of the cafeteria filled. While some of the students that came cared solely about the extra credit points that our coach (their teacher) offered, the majority of them came and told Chris and myself that they genuinely enjoyed the play. There were many tears and lessons learned, and when all was said and done we were happy with the end result. I think we really got through to people and showed exactly what Jesus had to suffer through for our sake.
That leads me into my point…as I came off of the stage for the Sunday show, I was speaking with a person from my church. They wondered how I could get into such a revolting character as the one I played. I told them “Now that I know what it’s like on the other side of God, I’m glad I’m on the side I chose.” I’m sure that, when given a side-by-side, most people would appreciate how their life with God is better than a life without Him. Praise God for good shows, thoughtful messages, and the life I’ve chosen.
