Our text 2 Corinthians 5:9
Therefore we also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent, to be pleasing to Him.
Now, this word, AMBITION, refers to pursuing what has great personal value.
And this type of pursuit requires your full participation in order to begin to plumb the depths of God’s promises.
Now, mark my words, while this pursuit has nothing to do with working for the gift of salvation, it has everything to do with growing in the knowledge and the wonder and the power of the blessings that come from Christ’s finished work on the cross to save you.
Consider this, if I offered you a scrumptious meal and you came to the table famished but only ate a bite and I bid you to eat more, you would have not enjoyed all that I had to offer. In the same way, God is offering you every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, and if are hungry for more of these blessings but you turn a deaf ear to Christ’s call upon your life to follow Him alone, you would not have enjoyed anything as God intended
So, are you pursing to know more, to experience more of God’s blessings
Today, my friend, in all your striving, strive to be STILL in God’s presence to understand this more.
Blessings in your Journey, friend,
Michael
