ARE WE MIRED DOWN?
God will speak to us if we read and study and obey the Word of God! But when He does speak, we should speak back to Him in prayer and devotion. Otherwise, we are among the Christians who are mired down right where we are. Many in our congregations have grown older and yet are not one inch farther up the mountain than on that day when the sun first arose on them in conversion. In fact, some are not even as far advanced along the way with God as they were a few years ago. If these things are true, I can only conclude that there are "common" Christians, men and women who no longer hear the Lord speaking to them as they should. Can they really think that this half-way Christian life is the best that we can know? In the face of what Christ offers us, how can we settle for so little? It is a tragedy of our time that so many are settling for less than the Lord is willing to give!
Verse
I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot. Revelation 3:1
Thought
In the face of what Christ offers us, how can we settle for so little?
Prayer
Lord, I want all that you will give me. Make me willing and able to reach the top of the mountains you have prepared for me.
