Am I going the right path!

May the Holy Spirit guide me on to the right path

VERSE OF THE DAY

Matthew 7:13-14

13 "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it

Song:
Making a Difference
Fisher of Men

Making A Difference
[VERSE 1]
Won't You Lord
Take a look at our hands
Everything we have
Use it for Your plan

[VERSE 2]
Won't You Lord
Take a look at our hearts
Mould it, refine it
As You set us apart

[CHORUS]
We want to run to the altar
And catch the fire
To stand in the gap
Between the living and the dead
Give us a heart of compassion
For a world without vision
We will make a difference
Bringing hope to our land

[BRIDGE]
We will answer the call
To build this church without walls
Let Your glory be shown
Bring salvation to the lost
To the lost

Frog in the boiling pot

Good reminder that we are to be set apart from the world. Pray that I be guarded to compromise and accommodate to the norms of the world.

You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. (James 4:4)

Commentary

If the path of accommodation and compromise continues unabated, eventually the church reaches a point of friendship with the world. This is an extremely dangerous place for the believer. Like the proverbial frog in the boiling pot, he has lost the ability to sense the heat slowly rising and is likely to slowly cook until almost all distinction from the culture is lost. This was precisely God’s point when He dealt with Israel in the Old Testament. God went to great lengths to separate Israel from the surrounding nations because He knew all too well the eventual destination of the path of incremental compromise and accommodation.

First Leader's Meeting

I managed to wake at 4.55am and get to BSF to attend my first Leaders BSF session.
It was a nice welcome and an eye opening time.

Thank you Lord for helping me settle into the session. Even at the prayer to be able to kneel before God and bring our prayers to you!
