THE DAILY BLUEPRINT - 7.16.09

Why Do You Seek Him?

JOHN 6:26
Jesus answered them and said, Truly, Truly I say to you, you seek Me not because of the miracles, but because you did eat of the loaves, and were filled!

Today's edtion talks about a very pressing and hard question to have to ask - but it's one that the answer will reveal just how you feel about JESUS! Those who saw Jesus feed the five-thousand - didn't stay around because of this great miracle - but simply because they were filled - there is a spiritual application to this - we can look forward to the present time and see that there are those who come to church to been seen and not to serve - there are those who come in seeming to want peace but actually bring division - we must be on the look out for such as those - those who have no intrest in knowing Christ at all but are in it for themselves - we must be careful that we don't fall into the same trap and begin to seek God for the wrong reasons - we must seek Him because He alone can save us - He alone created it all and He alone is worthy of all our praise - we must seek Him because of Who He is - not what He can do for us - we must ask this hard question - why do we seek Him? What are we hoping to gain? We must remember when we follow Jesus we must deny ourselves and turn away from all us and follow - this is a hard saying some of His followers said at one point and many of those never followed Him again -
what about us? Will we still follow Him when times get hard and people insult us for His sake - we must be willing to give all to JESUS and not turn back!
Why do you seek Him?
Seeking the Savior, Daniel<><
BUILDING MOMENT:
Jesus wants all of you - not just some of you - He died for your whole being!
Because we have CHRIST - we can follow God closely!
7.16.09 - Building on the WORD
JESUS WILL FILL US IF WE FOLLOW HIM
