Our dear kind and wondrous Lord Jesus said “I will not leave you as orphans”! (John 14:18) Do you ever feel as if you are an orphan in this world?
With all of the madness going on “out there”, there may be times when you feel frightened and alone as if nobody cares. It may feel like there is not one person who really “gets” you! If you start feeling like this, “Repent now” for it means you do not really know what Lord Jesus has done for you over 2,000 years ago and that He is here in “our midst” when we gather together with only two or three” of us praying and gathering in His name.
There is never a moment when you should ever be feeling alone as if you are an orphan in this world particularly if you are a Christian. If you feel like this it means that you are really not knowing that Lord Jesus is real. It is so important to know HIM! How do you get to know Him?
First you “Repent now” for He says the “Kingdom of God” is at hand (Matthew 3:2). You say, “Father, I repent of my sins and ask you for forgiveness for not truly believing in the words our Lord Jesus spoke over 2,000 years ago. I repent of not speaking with our Lord Jesus every day and making sure that I am taking His words seriously. When He said He would not leave me as an orphan, I must trust these words and open my heart in a deeper way to Him, so that I know Him more and more intimately every day.”
“Please help me Father, Lord Jesus and Holy Spirit to trust and obey the commands of our Lord Jesus, to obey your ten commandments, Father and I open to be filled with your Holy Spirit”. Then say to our Father and Lord Jesus that you “give your life to serve’ the most high God, His Son and Be filled with the Holy Spirit. Keep asking for help from our Father, Lord Jesus and Holy Spirit to be right with them and you will be amazed at the “good fruit” (Matthew 7:17) you will achieve and receive.
Lord Jesus says that if we want, our Father, the Holy Spirit and He will “come and dwell” in us! (John 14:23) How amazing is that? Ask Our Father, Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit to come and live in you. If you continue on in the belief that you are alone in this world and you call yourself a “Christian” then it means you are simply not truly engaged with the words Lord Jesus spoke over 2,000 years ago.
When He said that He would not leave us as orphans, He meant it. If you feel that you are alone and like an orphan and consider yourself to be a “Christian” it means that you must be being fooled and deluded by the devil. It also means that you are probably not spending enough time speaking with Lord Jesus asking for all of the help you need to overcome this state of being.
I pray for you that you will ask our Lord Jesus to help you to be more and more disciplined in your daily walk with the Lord, so you will organise to spend more time with Him. Speak with our Father as a child. Speak with Him as He is your “one and only Father”, (Matthew 23:9) as our Lord Jesus says He is. Speak with our Lord Jesus as if He is your “one and only I am your one and only Teacher” (Matthew 23:8) as He says He IS.
Speak in tongues for even a short time every day and open to receive the Holy Spirit. Our Father sent this gift as our Lord Jesus promised He would over 2,000 years ago. (John 14:26) Take advantage of all our Father has given to us. Do not hold back, our Father wants us to bring glory to His name. How can we do this, if we do not know Him? It is not possible.
I pray for you to truly speak with Lord Jesus and ask Him for help, ask the Holy Spirit who is everywhere to surround you and help you to be more obedient to our Father, who sent Him. God bless you and make sure you help yourself by taking time to be with the Lord our God, so you can live the abundant life, (John 10:10) He sent His son to bring to us, Kelly Newton-Wordsworth, Jesus Rocks My World (Facebook) and Breaky with Jesus!
