Daily Devotion to God’s Holy Word.

Our Way, By Karen Rowe
The Bible says all our ways are right in our own eyes; and while this is true, I can prove why our Way is wrong.
When we have a lack of knowledge about anything; like with painting, we do the best we know how to do. Although we may paint & with good intentions, in our “lack of knowledge” like pictured, the paint peeled off the surface & the doorway looked worse than before they began.
The Lord gave me a revelation yesterday as I worked on renewing this broken house.
This “way of not knowing” is exactly what is going on in this world & why Jesus prayed on HIS cross, Forgive them; they know not …
I used to dread painting! Because I didn’t know how to paint a Painter’s WAY (The Right Way).
When we bought our house, I was drawn into wanting to learn to paint; in a similar way as when the Holy Spirit drew me to place my life, hope & dreams in Jesus! I had a new desire on my heart …
LIFE, like Painting has learning curves & aspects of construction that we can learn to appreciate “our cross” by focusing on God’s outcome …
God wants us to ask, seek, focus & learn from Jesus, because we CAN paint our life LIKE the Master Painter.
Many CLAIM they ARE painters, but DO they paint LIKE The Master?
We train 《OUR》 mind …
It’s not HIS Cross we take up; It’s OUR cross, BUT it is HIS WAY!
GOD’S METHOD OF TEACHING IS THROUGH ADVERSITIES ◇ That’s why it’s a cross!
Our soulthoughts CAN get in our way of learning a better Way, The Painter’s Way.
Our soul humanly FEELS what we WANT, BUT Jesus gives a spiritual Peace & JOY that IS elite!
What a privilege we can ask THE LIFE how to paint our life the Master’s Way!
As this type of paint did not work on a semi-gloss painted door frame, the world’s way will not work in the Kingdom of God.
Jesus teaches His Disciples! And, the purpose of following Jesus is more important than paint is to a doorway!
HE’S our way!
The Way, The Truth & The Life!
Seek JESUS, Learn FROM Him, & paint like Jesus to discover The Outcome IS GOOD!
Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me.
Matthew 16:24 NLT
If you missed yesterday’s Devotion? This is fitting to provide as the Lord gives here and now. I hope this is a blessing to you. Open the Word; Tune in the God and Let the Revelations Roll! All Glory to God. I will Testify; and I wish I had time to in details, but would you have time to read? I just hope to inspire you to get your own Testimony and share your life; as Jesus can and will help you paint your own story: IF you really want to know God’s Way. and … then, it’s just all about, Thank you Jesus!
Have a great day friends! I am off to drop my son off to school and then to my first job! I get to work on that house some more and I can hardly wait to get there! I love being where God can teach me most about me!
How often are you searching out the message in the Bible? In listening to the Scriptures read yesterday, I noticed, God’s Word said often: “Are you listening to me? Really listening? Do you understand? If you have questions, like we all do, seek God 1st and the Revelation of how to proceed will come to you, through and by the Name of Jesus! And, don’t forget to ASK your questions to your Teacher! First, to Jesus and also to a friend of HIS! Don’t trust your mind for the answers; search for the true meaning in the Scriptures in the Holy Spirit, the Mind of Christ.
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: (Philippians 2:5-11 King James Version (KJV)) …
Matthew 11:15 MSG
I love love love this song…just heard it yesterday! Great message of REst!
I pray I served well today.
Come all you weary and burdened …
What if I were the one to tell you that the work has already been done? Jesus is the good News! In fact, Jesus is the Best News EVER!
Love in Christ,
Karen Rowe
