Can You Get A Good Return With No Investment?
Can You Get A Good Return With No Investment?
If you want to harvest tomatoes, you’ll need to plant tomato seeds. If you want to learn a second language, you’ll need to study. If you want to have money in savings, you’ll need to set some aside and not spend everything that comes in. If you want to excel in a sport, an art form, or any area of life, you’ll need to INVEST time, energy, talent, … yourself into that area.
What about eternity? What about answers to your needs? What about living with peace during the storms of life or having joy during seasons of difficulty? What about knowing, without ANY doubt, that God is with you and looking out for your best in every situation? What about knowing God’s voice and hearing it clearly over the noisiness of life’s hurriedness?
God promises the GREATEST RETURN on your investment, but what is key here is that we understand that God requires us to invest — invest ourselves into a relationship with Him.
The answers to His promises are given to:
- Those who diligently seek Him…
- Those who believe…
- Those who hear the Word and bear fruit…
- Those who obey…
- Those who do the will of the Father…
These are simply a few of the many ‘those who’ statements in scripture which teach us the importance of investing ourselves into a relationship with God.
God has given us prayer as the primary way to commune with Him and position ourselves exactly where He wants us to be.
Therefore, PRAY! Make EVERY EFFORT to be in prayer; alone, as a family, and together as Christ’s Body.
Love in Christ,
Pastor Gary & Alisa
