Meaning In Life:The Study of Ecclesiastes
part 25

Ecclesiastes 8.5
Whosoever keeps the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discernment
both time and judgment.

Today we return to the Meaning in Life series. Today's verse talks about keeping God's commands - its important that we live lives of full obedience to God - God expects perfection - and He has already given us His Son Jesus and the help of the Holy Spirit - one reason we don't always follow God's commands is our selfish - self-centered human nature -let's face it - we want what we want - when we want it - no questions asked - most of us want to get by with what we can get by with and listen to what God says when its convenient - a real life that is holy and separated for God's use is a life of full obedience - we cannot have the attitude that if we just do better then the other guy -we will be ok - God has not changed at all what He expects - but He has given us a way to make it - its through Jesus and Him alone - that's the way God made this world -we can either do things our way or HIS way. The choice is always ours - God will never force us to do anything - now He will lead us if we ask HIM too -
We must ask God daily for wisdom - the Book of James makes that remark over and over again - a wise man will have discernment in their lives - they will judge things in their lives -and they will reach toward God and allow HIM to have full access to their lives - men of honor - men who are not afraid to stand up to what is right! Men who are sold out to JESUS - now if us men would follow God like that -this world would be a different place - our wives - our children would be different -allow God to change your life - give Him all you have - and this will bring total meaning to your life! Amen!

BUILDING MOMENT: When GOD builds our lives - our foundation is tried and true - if we try and build our lives on anything else - our lives will fall apart.

Because we have CHRIST - we have holiness!
