biblebuffjournal99 - I AM A PILGRIM - GOD'S WORD MY MAP
I AM A PILGRIM
WHEN NOAH ENTERED THE ARK, GOD SHUT THE DOOR.
HE WAS SAFE INSIDE, WITH HIS WIFE, WITH HIS SONS, AND WITH THEIR WIVES. EIGHT PEOPLE.
I AM SAFE INSIDE THE "ARK OF SAFETY" FOR I HAVE PLACED MY FAITH IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST FOR MY SALVATION. IT IS BY HIS UNDESERVED FAVOR IN MY LIFE, THAT I HAVE RECEIVED FROM HIM, THE CLEANSING OF MY SOUL FROM ALL SIN, AND I AM NOW BOUND FOR HEAVEN AS A PILGRIM.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR A PILGRIM:
TRAVEL LIGHT.
HEBREWS 12. 1,2
"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, dispising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."
I MUST KNOW WHO I AM. I walk ever onward, shining His light in the darkness.
John 17.20 Jesus prayed "neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word."
John 10.27 "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me." As a member of His flock, I know His voice, and will follow Him.
Wherever we roam
We may call it HOME
Mountains and lakes
Rivers and streams
Valleys and meadows
Shadows and sunlight
I John 4.15 "Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God."
John 8.12 "I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life."
I MUST KNOW MY KING. - The Shepherd. - Wherever, whatever happens as I pilgrim in this world, Jesus is the King of my life. He is with me wherever I am.
John 10.14 "I am the good Shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine." John 10. 4 "And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice."
John 17.3 "And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent."
Abraham left Ur knowing God had promised
a place.
I MUST KNOW WHERE I AM GOING.
Hebrews 11.10 By faith Abraham..."looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God."
John 14.3 "And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself: that where I am, ye may be also."
I MUST KEEP THINGS IN PERSPECTIVE.
I Peter 3.14,15 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled, but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear."
John 2.14 "Whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst: but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life."
I MUST BANK ON GOD'S PROMISES TO BE WITH ME IN EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO ME.
Romans chapter 8.14 "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God."
Romans 8.28 "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His Purpose."
John 6.39 "And this is the Father's will that sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day."
I MUST DRESS APPROPRIATELY FOR
THE JOURNEY.
Ephesians 6: 10 - 20 Put on my spiritual armor
Matthew 6.33 Seek God first
Matthew 7.1 - 12 Keep the right attitude
I MUST KNOW WHERE MY RESOURCE IS FOUND.
Galatians 2.20 God's Faith in me.
Philippians 4.13 For anything God asks me to do, He will enable.
Ephesians 2.14 - 18
He will give peace, because He is peace.
TRUSTING THAT I WILL ARRIVE AT
MY FINAL DESTINATION, I CHOOSE TO PUT
MY RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD ABOVE EVERY
OTHER RELATIONSHIP.
Colossians 2.6,7
AS YOU HAVE THEREFORE RECEIVED
CHRIST JESUS THE LORD, SO WALK YE IN HIM, ROOTED AND BUILT UP IN HIM, AND STABLISHED IN THE FAITH AS YE HAVE BEEN TAUGHT, ABOUNDING THEREIN WITH THANKSGIVING.
IN MY NEXT POST, I WILL SHARE MORE ABOUT THE PILGRIM JOURNEY.
