Reality video of your life - Episode 7-67, March 8, 2017

Mar 8, 2017

A daily devotional through the recorded words Jesus spoke while He walked alongside us. Our website http://alittlewalkwithgod.com.

  1. Thanks for joining me today for "A Little Walk with God." I'm your host Richard Agee.
  2. Are you ready to let someone follow you around with video cameras to make a real-time movie of your whole life? Believe it or not, it’s already being done. God knows it all.
  3. Scripture
    1. John 10:32
    2. Jesus: I have performed many beautiful works before you in the name of the Father. Which of these can be judged as an offense that merits My execution?
  4. Devotional
    1. If you could put any part of your life on a video and let the world see it, what would it be?
      1. Would it be some great accomplishment that brought you acclaim?
      2. Would it be the day you received some promotion that made you proud?
      3. Would it be some special event like your wedding day or the birth of your children?
      4. Would it be some kind act you did for someone you love? Or something you did for a complete stranger even?
      5. What would you put on that video of your life?
    2. Now the opposite question. What would you want to keep off of that video of your life if you could?
      1. The hidden sin you don’t want anyone to know about?
      2. The unkind words to friends or family because you didn’t get your way or were frustrated or angry at the outcome of some situation?
      3. Your reaction because you didn’t get that recognition or promotion you thought you deserved?
      4. The time you gave that kind service to someone and received nothing but criticism and harsh words in return?
    3. The thing I like about Jesus’ words in this story is that His life was an open book to all who walked with Him and He asks us to be the same.
      1. Paul said to imitate his life and you’ll find Jesus because he was imitating Christ.
      2. Live a life worthy of imitation
      3. Live without worry of exposure
      4. No such thing as private and public life anymore, everything is exposed thanks to electronic media
    4. Live life openly for others to see
      1. Keeps from becoming something we are not
      2. Vulnerable but without pride or pretense
      3. Show our weakness and causes us to rely on Go and on each other
      4. Forces us to trust Him and others more than ever before
    5. Jesus lived in such a way He could ask, “Which of these beautiful works I’ve performed at the direction of my Father can be judged as an offense that merits My execution?”
      1. The answer is none.
      2. We cannot say that until He has forgive us and tossed our sins away. Frankly, we might still suffer consequences for the wrongs we have made against our fellow man, but God will throw those thoughts into the sea never to remember them against us again when we ask repentantly for His forgiveness.
      3. We can then, with His help do as He asked the adulteress to do, “Go and avoid the sins that plague you.” Stay away from those temptations. Stay out of the areas that you know will cause you to fall. Keep away from the things that Satan will use against you. Lean on Him for His protection against the evil one.
  5. If you want to learn more about my church, you can find us at SAF.church. If you like the devotional, share it with someone. If you don't, tell me. I hope you’ll join me again tomorrow for "A Little Walk with God."
