Word of the Day
Thank you Jesus for all your blessings! Praise the Lord!
We give you all the glory! You are worthy to be praised!
Thank you for joining us today! If you are new to this blog, please take the time to post a comment on what you have read today and let us know what you think. We value your opinion. For those joining us who have followed us since the beginning, this blog is designed for Pastor Ed to give us the Word of the Day and share with us his teaching on the Word.
Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Great I hope. Today, let's talk about direction by impulse. There was nothing of the nature of impulse or cold-bloodedness about Jesus, only a calm strength that never got perturbed. Most of us develop our Christianity along the line of our temperament, not along the line of God. Impulse is a trait in natural life, but our Lord always ignores it, because it hinders the development of the life of a disciple. Watch how the Spirit of God checks impulse; with a rush of self-conscious foolishness which automatically moves us to vindicate ourselves. Impulse is o.k. in a child, but it is disastrous in a man or woman; an impulsive man is always a petted man. Impulse has to be trained into intuition discipline.
Discipleship is built entirely on the supernatural grace of God. Walking on water is easy to an impulsive person, but walking on dry land as a disciple of Jesus, is a whole other ballpark. Peter walked on water to go to Jesus, but he followed Him from afar on land. We do not need the grace of God to stand crises, human nature and pride are sufficient, we can fancy the strain wonderfully,; but it does require the supernatural grace of God to live twenty four hours as a saint, to go through drudgery as a disciple, to live an ordinary, unobserved, ignored existence as a disciple of our Lord. It's inbred in us that we have to do exceptional things for God, but we don't. We have to be exceptional in the ordinary things, to be holy in mean streets, among mean people, and that is not easily learned in five minutes.
We like to close every Word of the Day by making sure you have the opportunity to ask Jesus in your heart.

So please pray, Lord Jesus, I accept that you were born of a virgin, died on the cross and shed your blood for my sins to be forgiven and rose again to be Lord and King. I repent of my sins and ask that you come into my life and be Lord and Savior and live in my heart.
Amen
Friends, if you just prayed this prayer, you are born again, and may I pray that you grow in your walk with Jesus and develop an intimate relationship with Him. If you just said this prayer, please send us an email, we would love to know.
