How Is Your Relationship?

Salvation is about our relationship with Jesus. It is not about just believing, being baptized, receiving the baptism in the Holy Spirit and now you are saved. It is about an ongoing relationship with Jesus. Since the day that we have believed in Him we start working on that relationship and we must look after our relationship with Jesus.

Many people are married but the relationship has fallen to pieces, they have found other lovers, they don't care for each other any more, they don't have anything in common any more. Jesus is faithful, He never changes but we must look after our relationship with Him. We must work hard on our relationship with Him. We must OBEY Him, do those things that are pleasing to Him and we must love Him. We can do all those things and not love Him, not really care for Him and He will know it. Many believers will one day say to Jesus:”Lord, in Your name we cast out demons, we preached on the streets, we did many things.” And He will say to them:”Go away I never knew you,” because the relationship fell apart.

How is our relationship with Jesus? Do we love Him? Do we really care for Him? Do we do everything to please Him? Are we constantly praying, LISTENING to Him, seeking to be pleasing to Him? Is our life about Jesus? If our relationship with Jesus is not right there is no way that we will enter the kingdom of Heaven. How is our relationship with Jesus?

We might know the Bible, all the doctrines, but if our relationship with Jesus is not right, then it is all in vain. We can sacrifice our lives, give away everything that we own but if our relationship with Jesus is not right it is all in vain.
