Will you be making available the VBS teaching on Seedbed?
I and my churches have been transformed and encouraged by your daily teachings in the Wake Yo Call. Thank you for following Jesus and the movement of the Holy Spirit all to the glory of God! Blessings!
Any substitute for God is an idol. Accept no replacement for God and for His direct personal revelation to you that Jesus is truly the Christ, the Son of the living God. (Matthew 16:16)
Any faith that isn’t built on the rock of direct personal revelation from God is an idol. (Matthew 16:18) True faith is built on the invisible reality of “Christ in you, the hope of glory,” (Colossians 1:27) — on what eye hasn’t seen and ear hasn’t heard — on what God has personally and directly revealed to you by the Spirit. (1 Corinthians 2:9-10) Placing anything — any object, any thought, any feeling, any desire, any religion, or anyone — ahead of an ongoing, heart-to-heart, obedient relationship with the risen Jesus is idolatry. Even greed is idolatry. (Colossians 3:5)
To wake up to the never-ending presence and power of God, “Keep yourself from idols.” (1 John 5:21) Cast down everything within you that exalts itself against the knowledge of God. Bring all your thoughts captive to the obedience of Christ. (2 Corinthians 10:5) Make them fallen idols that are powerless to block or interfere with your constant worship, adoration, and obedience to the risen Jesus Christ.
Will the VBS program you created, Word Up be published any time soon. Material for children’s Biblical education are needed. Thank you for creating.
It’s good to know that you’re honest about making a living. And a religious institution people are often making a living as a preacher. And I’ve always felt that it’s cruel when they tell people that that have to go out and preach the gospel in order to be just in God’s eyes.
We all need to pay the bills. This isn’t worship of the bills. This isn’t worship of the job that we need to pay the bills. This is just trying to be diligent. Some of us are even paying in order to raise children. This is important. This is purpose.
Thanks JD! Well done! I got the book. Looking forward to going through it in Sunday School.
