You Are the Best Thing.

                                                            You Are the Best Thing.

 

You Are the Best Thing; That Has Ever Happened to Me.

 

But what things “were gain to me”, those I counted loss for Christ.  Yea doubtless, and I count “all things but loss” “for the excellency of the ‘knowledge’ of Christ Jesus my Lord”: for whom I have suffered the loss of “all things”, and do count them dung, “That I May Win Christ”.  (Philippians 3:7-8)

 

The More we Love Jesus, the Less we Love the world!

Can’t imagine life without the world, chances are we Love the world over the Word.

 

Our Daily Nugget and Title

is letting us know the “Mentality” of the individual once they “Chose” the “Word over the World”.  When we place Jesus at the head and place Him on the “Throne of our Life”, our Thinking; “everything” that was at the head and on the throne, is now considered as insignificant as “dung”.

 

The Deception of Riches Concerning the Word.

 

The rich young ruler did not have this “Mentality”; he said that he loved the Lord, but he loved the World “More” than he loved the Lord.  The question is this; is Jesus or the World “The Best Thing That Has Ever Happened to You”?  In the Bible God commands us to have no other god before Him.  They both “are not” the best thing, Jesus tolerates no rivals.

 

The Rich young ruler was very religious, he dotted all the “I’s” and crossed all the “T’s”, except the main one; He chose the World over the Word.  He and all those around him, on a scale of one to ten would, no doubt, give him a ten, due to his religious activities.  But he was not worthy, he had a god, “riches”, before God.

 

Paul was the writer of our Daily Nugget; he was at the top of His Class in religious activities.  He loved his religion and all the pomp and pageantry, that came with it, he did not love Jesus.  Once he “Fell in Love With Jesus”, then Jesus, instead of his religion became “The Best Thing That Ever Happened to Him”.  Now Saul, became the New Creature Paul, ready to do God’s Work.

 

Ask God to Bless you with the Mentality that,

“Jesus is the Best Thing that has Ever Happened to Me”,

And Watch What Happens.

The "Wisdom" in "Denying Self"!

                                                   The “Wisdom” in “Denying Self”!   The world is waiting on us to Deny Self and Live Holy!   For the wage of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)    Neither yield ye your members. Do not yield to temptation.  It is no sin to be tempted, the sin lies in yielding.   The Wage of sin is “Death While Living”; freedom is in Jesus. To yield or not to yield to sin is determined by our “Thinking Process”! Whenever we are tempted to sin; we can “Yield” or, we can “Yield Not”!   Just like our mouths speak what we have filled our heart/mind with; rather we yield to temptation or not is based also on what we have “filled” our heart/mind with.   Our Daily Nugget is telling us that the wage of sin is death, Jesus did not change that.  All who “believe” have chosen to “Yield Not to the Temptations” that the world offers.  This is a command from God to us.  The Bible says, “No Command From God to

Ambassadors!

                                                                       Ambassadors!   Everybody is an Ambassador of either God or Satan!   Anyone who isn’t with me opposes me, and anyone who isn’t “working with me” is actually working against me.  (Matthew 12:30) …And has committed to us the word of reconciliation.  Now then, we are Ambassadors for Christ….  (2 Corinthians 19 & 20)   Whose Ambassador Are You?  Look to your living! Ministering the Word of Reconciliation, The Ambassadors Job! We Kingdom Citizens, Christians, “Are” Ambassadors of I Am, God. Jesus said, If You Are Not Working “For Me” You’re Working Against Me!   Ambassador – An “accredited diplomat” “sent” by a Kingdom as its “Official Representative” to a foreign country, “To Deliver the Message of The King”!     The message of the King is given to the Ambassadors through The Word, The Bible, and through The Holy Spirit.   We must Study the Word, the Bible to “Know the Job Duties” for the Ambassador and “listen atten

Don't Let The Devil Ride!

                                                        Don’t Let the Devil Ride!   If you let him ride, he’ll want to drive, so don’t let him ride!   The serpent was the shrewdest of all the wild animals the Lord God had made.  One day he asked the woman, Did God really say you must not eat the fruit from any of the trees in the garden? (Genesis 3:1) At that time Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil.  He fasted for forty days and forty nights and afterward was hungry.  The tempter approached and said to him, “If you are the Son of God. Command that these stones become loaves of bread.  (Matthew 4:1-3)   Whenever the devil, the tempter, comes to us, we have two options: We can “let him ride”; we let him ride when we “respond” to him with our words. We tell him that “you cannot ride” when we “respond” to him, with God’s Words!   Our Daily Nuggets are two perfect examples in scripture of two people, one let the devil ride and one told the devil that he c
