“…If you remain in me and my words remain in you, then you will ask for anything you wish, and you shall have it…”John 15:7 (GNT)

When we take a look at what is happening in the world today, you see that so much effort is being made to relegate God’s ideas and thoughts backstage while the focus is on enforcing the opinions of men. Today, you find that many are doing everything possible to normalize what God calls evil. I mean for many today, going in the opposite direction of God’s Word is the new normal. But the question is, is this the right thing to do? Of course not.. They are walking in error and your responsibility as a believer is to ensure that you do not walk in that path. Why? Because going in that direction will make you an enemy of God. 

The Bible says “…Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God…” James 4:4 (NKJV). Did you see that? Embracing the ideas and opinions of the people of this world, will make you an enemy of God. So, you have to make a conscious decision to embrace the opinions of God regarding every area of life. In your marriage, finances, business or career, you must see to it that you embrace the opinion of God and pattern your life accordingly. When you do this, you will be like a man “…who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock…” Matthew 7:24‭-‬25 ( NKJV). Hallelujah! 

Today’s Rhema

When you embrace the ideas and opinions of God, you are building on a sure foundation!

Confession for the Day

Jesus is my life and my sure foundation, therefore I choose to adhere to His ideas and opinions and as I do this, I am making progress and prospering in all my endeavors. No matter what happens, I receive the grace to reject every opinion or ideas of the world. Hallelujah!
