Have you heard the term, “friends with benefits”?
This is how the body of Christ has treated the Lord! We want to be close and get all the goodies from the Lord, but without the cost of what it takes to be close! We want all the benefits of God without having to give anything in return!
Do not mis hear me! Jesus paid it all by shedding His Blood on Calvary so that we could come in freely! Is that right there not reason enough to give Him everything we have?
We sing the song…
Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain
He washed it white as snow
We just forget, all to HIM I owe! When we make Jesus Lord, our life no longer belongs to us, we say take over and do with it what You will for my life is Yours!
Yes, it’s costly, yes, it’s complete surrender, yes, it’s His ways above our ways, and…
YES, IT IS WORTH IT!!!
HE IS WORTH IT and SO MUCH MORE!
