BE STILL & SET YOUR MIND ON GOD

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. No Time With God

a) We always hear from Christians I don’t have time I have to work, do this, do that, etc. Often when we say these things it’s all talk and I’ll prove it. You say you’re too busy, but you had time for that 10-15 minute conversation with your friend. You say you didn’t have time, but you were playing with your apps and texting for 5-10 minutes.

b) You have no time but when you get home or wake up suddenly you have time for your favorite shows and for social media sites. No Christian is ever going to say, “I don’t want to spend time with God,” but our actions say it all. The men and women most used of God are the people who have fellowship with Jesus daily.

c) You must be alone with Him. Find a quiet place. For me it’s in my house. For you it can be on a mountain, near a lake, in your closet, etc.

2. Be Still And Set Your Mind On God

Psalms 46:10 

“Cease striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”

Lamentations 3:25-28 

The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord. It is good for a man to bear the yoke while he is young. Let him sit alone in silence, for the Lord has laid it on him.

Philippians 4:7-9 

Then God’s peace, which goes beyond anything we can imagine, will guard your thoughts and emotions through Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers and sisters, keep your thoughts on whatever is right or deserves praise: things that are true, honorable, fair, pure, acceptable, or commendable. Practice what you’ve learned and received from me, what you heard and saw me do. Then the God who gives this peace will be with you.  

The End ...
