Scriptures Used: Matthew 7:21-23

Matthew 7:21-23 – 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.  22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 A nd then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

This was kind of a hard message for me because it hit so close to home. I really believe that the only way to effectively minister is to be able to show your scars. Even if it is a scar that may hurt your reputation a little, you have to be willing to show it.  When God asked me what was really  important to me last Sunday and I really examined my life, I found out that God wasn’t #1 anymore to me. I had allowed the things of this world to come before God in my life. I took last week off just to spend a week in repentance to God and to really work on putting Him back as #1.  No matter how much you do for God, it will never be able to take the place of your personal relationship with Him. Remember that and know that God desires and deserves to be #1 in your life. Make sure He is #1 by truly asking yourself what is really important to you. I found out God wasn’t the most important thing in my life  when I really asked myself that. What did you find out?
