I Chronicles 16:11 (5th and Final part of the "DON'T MISS OUT" SERIES) O u r lives are f i l l e d w i t h m a n y o p t i o n s a n d c h o i c e s f r o m h o w to take care of our health, to picking what hobbies we will engage in. If we evaluate our lives, what have we really been up to? Have we figured out what our priorities are? Are we doing what's most important and "keeping the main thing the MAIN thing?" How do we decide what should be top on our list? In Mark 8:34, 36-38 Jesus makes it clear what our primary objective in life needs to be: "Then, calling the crowd to join his disciples, he said, "If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me. For what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul? If anyone is ashamed of me and my message in these adulter- ous and sinful days, the Son of Man will be ashamed of that person when he returns in the glory of his Father with the holy angels." A Spiritual Work Out The chief focus of our life is to make sure that we are de- veloping a relationship with Jesus Christ that will carry us throughout eternity. It's sur- rendering our thoughts, will, and emotions - our soul to him. When our salvation is predominant, we have a bibli- cal worldview and it becomes the foundation of the way we live our lives. Consequently, being a follower of Jesus re- quires perseverance, and dis- cipline - not passivity. Apostle Paul states in Philippians 2:12 (AMP), "So then, my dear ones, just as you have al- ways obeyed [my instructions with enthusiasm], not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, continue to work out your salvation [that is, cultivate it, bring it to full effect, actively pur- sue spiritual maturity] with awe-inspired fear and trem- bling [using serious caution and critical self-evaluation to avoid anything that might offend God or discredit the name of Christ]. How tragic - to earn success, money, & accolades on this earth, then meet the Master, and he says "You missed out, I never knew you!" PRAY THIS PRAYER: "Father, my foremost goal is to love you with all of my heart, soul, and strength. You are the eternal God who is loving, powerful, and good. I honor, exalt, and praise your holy name. Forgive me for pride, getting drawn away by my own desires, and being distracted from your word and your voice. Lord, according to your word, I rebuke the enemy and his activities against me. I don't believe his lies. Lord, flood my spirit with your Spirit and your truth. I surrender to you. I want to be found faith- ful in obeying you, loving you, and pleasing you in everything I say and do. In Jesus name I pray - Amen."
