Give Your All To Jesus !

   This is how my parable begins. Let me call him John. John had a double story house, five plus five rooms. One day there was a gentle knock on the front door. When John opened it was the Lord Jesus. “Please come in”, John pleaded, “I will give you the best room in my house – it is upstairs. Well, Jesus is a gentleman and said “thank you”.

   The next morning someone hammered against the front door. When John opened it who was there? The devil. “No” shouted John, “I don’t want you here” But the devil said “I’m already in” – and a big fight started. Satan poured filthy temptation on him, it was horrible. By the evening John somehow got the victory and threw the devil out. Then he said “wait a minute”. I gave Jesus the best room in the house, why didn’t he come to my rescue?” Jesus said to John “Look, you gave me one of the ten rooms…” John was on his knees and said “I can see my mistake. Sorry, Lord. Let’s make 50/50.” Jesus is a gentleman and accepted. The next day was a repeat of the day before. Somehow the devil got in and out and John was totally exhausted. “Why didn’t Jesus come to my rescue today? I need to go and ask.” The Lord said “My son, why don’t you give me all 10 rooms and then, instead of me staying with you, you stay with me?” John broke down. He pulled the key of the front-door from his pocket and handed it to Jesus. Now, he had given it all.

   The next morning, it was still dark, when someone was knocking at the front door so hard that the whole building shook. John jumped frightened and shaken out of bed crying “O, it’s the devil again”, when suddenly he heard footsteps – but this time inside the house. Jesus was marching in majesty and power towards the front door. He had the key. It now was His duty to answer the door. John was wondering what would happen and stood right behind Jesus when the Lord opened the door wide. Who was it? The devil of course. But when the devil saw Jesus standing in the door he bowed low, very low indeed, and said “Sorry Sir, I knocked on the wrong door!”

Some have given 9 rooms to Jesus and on the door of room number 10 they have written “Strictly Private”. It is there where they have their secret sins and live their double life. But Jesus cannot be cheated. C’mon. Let’s sing it together from the bottom of our hearts “Unto Jesus I surrender, unto Him I freely give….I surrender ALL, unto thee my God and Savior, I surrender all.” This is my foolproof recipe for victory! Does it speak to you? Please let me know.  With all my love, REINHARD BONNKE.

Father's Day Special : Who is your Real Father!

Who is your Real Father?

   

     Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness. Hebrews 12:9,10

      As much as we are concerned, we are the Children of God by Christ Jesus, Hallelujah!  So this is the time to understand or unveil Who is our real Father ! I don’t mean to degrade our Biological fathers here on Earth, they are our fathers and God’s agents to brought us into this world, but not fully.  Jesus taught us how to pray in Matthew 6:9-13, The Very first words is “Our Father Who Art in Heaven”. But sad to say that God is a Father just for those who Believes in Christ Jesus! Because the Bible says which are not in Jesus are children of Devil or Satan! 

  

       People Celebrate Father’s Day throughout the World without recognizing Who is their Real Father or Who made them to Become a human being, even among the Believers in Jesus Christ. In Jeremiah 1:5, God said to prophet Jeremiah “Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.” God choose Jeremiah to become a Prophet, so are we chosen by God Our Father to be someone in this World and to Glorify His Mighty and Holy Name!

     

     We see that the writer of the book of Hebrews recognized God as the Real Father “shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?”  12:9, he says Father of spirits, it simply imply that God is the Source, the Originator or the Creator of all spirits which includes Angels, Demons and Human Spirits. I like the word “shall we not rather be in subjection” to God and not to our Biological fathers. I mean the Most Obedience must be given to God in a contradiction to our Human Fathers, if it is to choose between God and Human.

   

       Let’s go to the Beginning to understand the relation of God and Men, Genesis 1:27 “God created man in his own image”. God made man who is composed of Spirit, Soul and Body he is called Adam which means “Earth, Red Clay” because he was taken out of the Dust. God is the Father and He wants to have fellowship with Adam, God did  but it’s not very long time I believe, after Eve came they were tempted by Satan and lost the Father and son relationship. In Luke 3:38   we see that “Adam, which was the son of God.” but that was lost because of Sin, till Jesus, God in Flesh (John 1:14) came and redeemed us from sin, satan and hell. And through Him we are restored our rights to become sons of God (John 1:12,13) and by His Spirit we can call God “Abba, Father”  Gal 4:6.  John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” God loves us and send His Only Brgotten Son to save His lost sons, that is Father’s love! Glory to God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit !

       

      The writer of Hebrews also said in 12:10 “For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.” God only thinks our benefit or profit, He doesn’t want anything from us, rather He wants to give everything if we obey Him. Not like the human fathers, sometime human fathers made mistakes but God our Father never make mistake ! Amen. We don’t need to degrade our human father but give more attention to God. I remember what Jesus said in Matthew 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. To Love God with all our heart, soul and mind, this is it ! that simply mean Love your Heavenly Father more than your earthly father !

      

      Here is some of the encouragement I want to give, God is our Real father, but don’t need to despite our earthly fathers,  because if we despite them who can be seen it is the same that we are despising Our Heavenly Father too. Happy Father’s Day and May God bless you!
