TURNING POINT

John6:60-70

Simon Peter answered him, “Lord to whom we shall go? You have the words of eternal life. We believe and know that you are the Holy one of God”. (Verse 68-69)

According to Rita Mae Brown “the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results”. There are times we need to turn a new leaf of life and attitude, from this passage many of Jesus’ disciples left him while the twelve rather than living him turned to Jesus to re-establish their faith and stand in him. We need to leave our present state for the next level. There are some ways we have walked that we need not walk again.

          When we examine our life style and relationship with God, we will see that it is not in accordance with God’s permissive will, plan and purpose for our life, it is then time to readjust and realign our life and ways with God’s. God never change but man does, God has ever been faithful to his words and to man. RIVER JABBOK was Jacob’s turning point; there he wrestled with God (Genesis 32:24-30), Moses’ turning point was at MOUNT HOREB; there he saw God in the burning bush that was not consumed (Exodus 3:1-6), Joshua’s turning point was near JERICHO; there he saw the commander of the Lord’s army (Joshua 5:13-15), and Paul’s turning point was on his way to DAMASCUS; there he heard Jesus’ voice (Act 9:2-7) my beloved where is your own turning point?

       Blessed is the life that turns to God and turn your back on short term pleasure and gratification, your life is precious to God do not spend it in eternal doom. The Lord is gently calling you today hear him do not delay, and hand your life over to him. Turn to God today for your eternity’s certainty. “What will it profit a man to gain the whole world and loose his own soul”?

PRAYER: I give you my life for direction and guidance, dear Lord teach, me your ways so I can be happy and useful for your glory. (AMEN).
