Luke 17:11-19

It is amazing how the ten lepers went out into the presence of Jesus without knowing He was coming. They must have known or have heard of who He is, to be able to come unto Him. For me stands to not only stay with what I can hear or learn about Him in church service or other day, but also go and have the drive to have a personal experience and relationship with Him. When I go, I can ask Him for any need I can have, it doesn’t matter what situation I can be in; He has the power to overcome whatever. Whenever the relationship with someone can get rough or I have difficult task to do, I come to Him with a humble and honest heart knowing that circumstances are out of my hands and that I can rely on Him. After surrendering myself, I need to open my ears and heart to be able to receive the commands He has for me. Even though it can be what I don’t want to hear or it could be nonsense, He knows better for my life and I must obey. My obedience pleases Him and when He knows He can trust me things (when I have been faithful in the little), now He can give greater things and those desires of my heart (when they are in His will). As things can grow and situations can start to look greater and fancier, I need to remember that He is the only who deserves glory and honor. I can ask for different things, but He wants a real relationship; He wants to give me salvation, everything else doesn’t matter. It is a constant and daily act of faith to trust and obey Him, surrendering my days and life to His hands, asking Him to cleanse me of whatever I could do: heaven is my motivation and destination.

Application:
After the days of this week come to the Lord in the night, debrief the day out and be thankful about it.

1 Corinthians 9:22

What another demonstration of love to our neighbors or to people than to be emphatic with their lives and share with them the gospel? Knowing that God called me to be a disciple and to share the gospel to people has opened my eyes. His calling qualifies me, even though I feel like I am not ready or don’t have enough love for others, I have stopped trying and just letting Him work in me and through me.  Being honest, it is hard for me to be open to all people I face or get to know, but it is even harder when it is people that I know or are my friends. I believe this happens because of my lack of faith in Him. Now that I am in a real relationship with Him, my love and passion has been growing. My heart opens more and more every new time we get to do outreaches or share the gospel.  I can’t love people with my heart, but I can love them with His love. In my strength is hard to lay down and try to talk to everyone, but His faithfulness and passion for them is what makes me move. N

Hebrews 11:1

It seems that for all our lives and during every phase, we humans actually keep on wishing, wanting, and expecting  for something to happen or to come up to. Most of us will be influenced by the circumstances in our lives and the words of other people. It seems that we are constantly under pressure and bombarded with things that we don’t  even expect; like if we would become the person that the circumstances are dictating or what other people  are saying. Our expectations of life and the desires or hopes of our heart are biased to the wrong way.  Hebrews helps us define what faith really is, if we pay close attention. It is faith that is what holds all of these points, letting  us know what really is going wrong is our faith’s direction. We have the steering wheel of our own faith, it is us who  decide where we want it to be anchored or to whom or what we rely it on.  During my life I have been always a dreamer, having life goals, and constantly looking towards the

Luke 21:19

While I was thinking of standing still, a soldier was illustrated in my mind. When a superior calls a soldier to stand still, the soldier must leave whatever he is doing and come up firming his body. Then he has an attitude of listener, because the superior surely has something important to say. After the superior finishes his command, the soldier must wait until he has permitted to “relax”.  We can take certain points out of this illustration. The soldier has attitudes of obedience, service, and discipline. Jesus is our chief in command and we are his soldiers, we have to fight for souls. As any soldier, we need to look sharp and in shape. Otherwise we are going to die. We shall seek Jesus daily to know him more and delight ourselves in Him; so that our faces can reflect Him. Our ears need to be sensible to His voice, in a battle of so much noise and action, confusing a command from a different source will have terrible consequences. Our most important weapon is His word, sharper
