You get out of any relationship, that
which you put into it. A good relationship requires very hard work.
Many relationships die because both or either partner do not put
their part into it. Most believers have no relationship with Jesus
because they are putting nothing into it. They expect Jesus to DO
everything and to GIVE everything because they are selfish and
everything is about them.
The kingdom of God is about Jesus but
Jesus gave everything for us. What are we giving Him in return? How
much time are we spending with Jesus. How much of our life belongs to
Jesus? How much time are we spending in prayer. How much do we
testify for Jesus? What are we investing in our relationship with
Jesus? What you sow, you reap! If you sow sparsely you will reap
sparsely, if you sow nothing you will reap nothing! If you don't work
at that relationship with Jesus then He will say to you one day:”Go
away from Me I never knew you, you who work wickedness!” Because
YOU did not bring your part in that relationship.
We need to work very hard at our
relationship with Jesus. Many people want the Holy Spirit but they
don't want to praise Jesus, they cannot spend time with Him. If you
are not willing to spend time praying and PRAISING Jesus, DON”T
expect Him to give you the Holy Spirit. If you are not willing to
work for the kingdom of God, don't expect Him to give you any gifts!
What do you want it for? To use it on yourself? It is about the
kingdom of God, dear friend, it is not about us! It is about Jesus,
He gave everything and He expects exactly the same of us, EVERYTHING.
If you put garbage into your relationship with Jesus you will reap
garbage. If we do not put everything into it we will just not make
it! They asked Jesus whether those who are being saved are few and He
said: “Strive HARD for narrow is the door that leads to life and
FEW there be that find it. Many will try HARD and will not be able.”
How hard are you working at your relationship with Jesus?
May Jesus bless you.
