Lord Jesus said that heaven and earth “shall pass away but my words will never pass away”. (Matthew 24:35) How important are the words of Lord Jesus to you? He says not to call anyone else on earth “teacher” (Matthew 23:8-11) as He is our “only teacher”. I have discovered that by truly surrendering to Lord Jesus as my “only teacher” my relationship with Him continues to go deeper and deeper eighty six thousand, four hundred seconds a day every day!

I am able to learn an enormous amount from Him on a daily basis because I have given up the world or as He calls it “mammon” as an influence over my life and look only to Lord Jesus to teach me about the most important thing in the world and that is obeying God, Father, Son and being filled with the Holy Spirit! Living with Lord Jesus every second of every day is beyond anything I could ever have imagined.

Have a chat with Him today in a new way, really asking Him any questions you have and you will experience a state of being you have never known before.

Be blessed in Jesus mighty name by obeying His commands, doing our Father’s will and being filled with the Holy Spirit! Obedience to the commands of God the Father, His Son and being filled with the Holy Spirit equals living an miraculous, blessed life EVERY day! Take “up your cross” and Lord Jesus says and find out for yourself, Kelly Newton-Wordsworth, Breaky with Jesus!!

How do these words affect you right now? Do you believe that “LIFE” is more important than food? Is this hard for you to “stomach” at this moment? Are you sitting there wondering what you are having for dinner tonight, or are you present to God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit who may be wanting you to do something spontaneous, obviously something you were not expecting to do before dinner. Would you be open to going out of your way in a moment to serve God, or would you rather get home quickly to have your dinner, sit down and watch TV until you go to bed?

For many years now I have realised that our future depends on every choice we make. Many people have said to me from all over the world that I am a “lucky” person. God told me one day that there is no such thing as “luck” and not to accept “wishes” of luck from any person. He told me to let people know that “luck” does not exist. It is the choice as to which master we serve that determines our future. As I have shared with people many times, Lord Jesus said that there are only “two masters”, God and mammon, and you can’t serve both. You “hate one and love the other”. (Matthew 6:24)

If you love food, clothing and all that is provided for by the world in which we live, which master do you believe you are serving? Lord Jesus says that we must “Seek first the Kingdom” and all will be given to us. By whom will we be given “all”?(Matthew 6:33) We will be given “all” by the Almighty God if we will “seek” Him with our whole heart, mind, soul and strength! If we seek the world we will gain only the world.

If we obey the commands of our Lord Jesus Christ, we can do what He has done and “even greater things”. If you really believe in Lord Jesus He says you will obey His commands. If you don’t then you are not a believer, simple as that. If you find yourself becoming confused, feeling lost in any way or you know you are looking to the world in any way, come back to the Lord and ask Him for help.

God says in Jeremiah Chapter 29 Verse 13 that anyone who seeks Him with their whole heart will find Him. If we are not seeking Him with our whole heart we will find what? We will not only not find Him, we will find people, ideas, things from the world that will lead us away from God. If we don’t call out to our Father, Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit to help us, we may never come back onto the path again.

Do not take these words lightly. God is deadly serious about those who have been created in “His image” obeying His every command. He is expecting us to love Him with our “whole heart”, our mind, soul and strength. Keep remembering that our Lord Jesus says that this is the “greatest commandment”. (Matthew 22:36-40) Wow! What a place to start! When we feel ourselves slipping and starting to focus on what is happening in the world, we can switch back to God by looking around, seeing all that He has given to us, start thanking Him deep inside, speaking with Him, being grateful to Him and gently all of that love will return again!

Over 2000 years ago, Lord Jesus spoke to a woman at a well and explained to her that a “time is coming” when people will “worship in the spirit” and this is the worship that our Father wants from us. (John 4:23) What do these words mean to you? What does it mean to you to “worship in the spirit”?

These words mean a huge amount to me for many reasons. In 2002 having been a Christian and a self appointed disciple of our Lord Jesus Christ for seven years, God spoke to me when I was praying before going to church on a Sunday morning and the words He said shocked me to my core. He said “I don’t want you to go to church any more. I will show you my church. My church has no walls and is where two or more are gathered in the name of my Son”.

At that time I was not some huge biblical scholar, searching the Gospels and Scriptures every day. I loved the Holy Bible with a passion as reading the Gospels for the first time after becoming a Christian changed my life forever, but I would not have described myself then as someone who could quote bible verses and say exactly where they came from. I can say that I now can do this with more ease but every day I learn more and more. The more I learn the more I want to learn more!

However I had made some very exciting discoveries from the time I said the “prayer of repentance”, asked for forgiveness from the most High God and gave my life to serve Him through Lord Jesus! When I saw from the words of Lord Jesus that He is “the WAY” to our Father in heaven I was amazed. I had traveled a long, hard and tough road through the ‘new age’ movement getting only to dead ends and beyond this had a feeling I was going towards death itself.

Many Christians who have been brought up in a ‘Christian’ home do not realise that the devil and demons are real and they have little or no idea of the danger this fact poses to their lives. I have met so many who are what I would describe as “church goers”, and not necessarily true seekers of our Father, through Lord Jesus. I know this from the “fruit” that I have witnessed over many years of being a seeker of the TRUTH way before I became a Christian and meeting Christians who seemed to have no interest in speaking about God outside of their church!

The reason I became caught up in the ‘new age’ movement is that I could not find Lord Jesus in any church I went to, or any information about the living Lord from Christians I met. The individual Christians I met seemed to be often “dogma” sprouting people who were far from inspiring and more than this, they were mean, excluding and hardly ever spoke about God, Father, Son or Holy Spirit. There was a great “ordinariness” about the churches I went to and the Christians I met.

Lord Jesus did say that “many” would come in His name and to “watch out” as they would be “wolves in sheep’s clothing” and would “rip” us “to pieces”. This was a large part of my experience with the “so called Christians” I had met hence I turned to the new age to see if I could find “the TRUTH” that I had been searching for since I could remember! I wanted so much to know God that I went on and on trying to find what I was looking for with Indian Gurus, researching alternative medicine and different methods of healing.

I “gave up” my life to serve God one day after reading one sentence in a book in which Lord Jesus was quoted as saying that if we would “obey” God we can do what “He did and even greater things”! As I have said many times, these words from the Son of the most high God, blew my mind open. Having walked outside, looked at the sky and asked God to “tell me” what He wanted me to do for Him, I started on the greatest journey that I believe is possible for any human, to serve God, who is in the spiritual realms and bring His will to be done in the physical world.

At that time I was not a Christian! I know that this sounds strange, but I gave up my life to God because of Lord Jesus, but I did not have any interest in ever becoming a Christian. The moment I gave up my life to God, He started to speak with me. He told me very simple things to do, like cleaning, clearing old things I didn’t like away and getting rid of old “stuff” that was no longer useful.

I could go on and on about this first day as it was phenomenal and is with me forever! The day after I was jogging along a road out in the bush and God shouted to me to “STOP”. I looked around to see who had said this so loudly and there was nobody there. I looked down onto the road and there was a two metre Tiger snake coming moving silently, rapidly and in a potentially deadly distance from my bare legs!

The power of God filled my whole self and I stood watching in wonderment as I had never seen a snake in the wild. I was in awe of the way it glided effortlessly across the road. If it had bitten me I would have perhaps been dead in around four minutes. I was alone out in the bush and may not have been found for some time before it was too late!

I watched the snake move on into the Australian bush and then took off “like a rocket” to get back home and share this experience with my husband. I was “on fire”. I knew that the Almighty God had just saved my life! I ran inside, grabbed my guitar and wrote the first of what I call the “message” songs. I had never written such a song before.

It is called, “Song of the bush” and the words of the last verse include these warning lyrics, “If we don’t stop this way of living where we are taking without giving…one day there will be silence…” I had never written a song like this in my life. These words were written in August, 1988. This was the first of my “environmental” songs.

Seven years later, when my husband William and I joined the ‘Alpha’ course out of Holy Trinity Brompton in England, watching on our local minister’s TV having come from this background of the “new age”, environmental songs at that time would have and may still be considered “pagan”. We often found over the years that if we speak of “environmental”issues with Christians, they have looked at us in a blank, vacant and awkward way.

We have seen tiny glimpses though of people in different denominations over the last thirty years, who have shown interest in God’s creation being important, like one of the Popes who made the headlines of the West Australian newspapers, stating that environmental damage is a “sin”. This was a welcome surprise. It is to me so obvious, that the God who said “Let there be light” and made the earth, humans and all living creatures, would be concerned for His creation! Why wouldn’t He be?

He brought us out of the new age to meet His one and only begotten son and since starting to read the Gospels I am in awe of what Lord Jesus has taught us. When He says He is “THE WAY”, I can say I truly know He is. When I discovered that He said “Where two or more are gathered in my name, there I will be in your midst”, I realised that He is the way to our Father in heaven, so to do His Father’s will on earth, all we have to do is pray together where “two or more are gathered” He comes, takes our questions straight to His Father and brings back to us His answer!

This relationship has nothing to do with any building or people. It is a relationship that is “in the spirit” as God is in the spiritual realms! So simple.

Can you imagine that Lord Jesus is telling all of us to “get real” and “get GOD” for ourselves. Each one of us individual humans has been made in the image of God. God wants us to talk with Him intimately as He is according to Lord Jesus our ONE and ONLY Father! He says we are not to call anyone else on earth “Father” as we only have “one Father” and this is our “Father who art in heaven”! (Matthew 23:9)

To “worship in the spirit” start speaking to our Father, Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, as individual parts of the one God, who have different “jobs” and want to help us in different ways. We ask God the Father for His precious guidance as to what He wants us to do for Him. Lord Jesus says we will “not enter the Kingdom unless we do the will of His Father”. How can we find out what our Father’s will is for us? Ask where two or more are gathered, Lord Jesus comes, He takes our questions to our Father and brings back the answers.

Then we take the action our Father requires us to take. We must always remember though the commands of our Lord Jesus who says that a “good tree will provide GOOD fruit” and a “bad tree will provide bad fruit”. We must make sure we know the difference through asking Lord Jesus to help us. When we ask the Holy Spirit, He is our counselor and helper at all times. He has been sent as a gift to us so that as Lord Jesus says we will not be orphans when He went back to be in heaven with His Father.

If you don’t really feel like you know God well, you can start to “worship in the spirit” straight away, even by speaking to our Father, Lord Jesus or the Holy Spirit inside yourself. Start in the corner with Lord Jesus, as He is the “cornerstone”! With love through Lord Jesus, Kelly Newton-Wordsworth, Jesus Rocks My World

In John 15 Verses 1 to 4, Lord Jesus says, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. ² He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes^[a] so that it will be even more fruitful. ³ You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. ⁴ Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.”

Have you ever considered the huge importance of these words of our Lord Jesus to you in your own life? When Lord Jesus says that His Father is the “gardener” there are other versions of the Holy Bible where He refers to His Father as the “Vine dresser”. Whatever version we look at, He is really warning us that even He is being “pruned” by His Father so that He can be even MORE fruitful!

From John 15 verses 5 to 8 He is telling us that He is the “vine” and WE are the “branches”. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. ⁶ If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. ⁷ If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. ⁸ This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.

Do you sometimes feel like you are lost in the world and Lord Jesus is far away from you? If you don’t that is truly awesome and must mean that you are speaking with Him every day and working to obey all of His commands. However, if you feel a little lost, or you don’t see much fruit of your own version of being a Christian, it is time right now to come back to “the vine”!

How exciting is this? It is so exciting to know that our Lord Jesus loves each one of us! He died on the cross and rose from the dead to give us the life changing opportunity to be a “branch” on His vine and have His own Father become our Father and the gardener who looks after the vine and all of its branches! Through our Lord Jesus we have the opportunity to start AND live and NEW LIFE every day!

There is a huge warning to us though, that if we DON’T remain IN HIM, if we go away from the vine we will be as a “branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.” There is great power in realising immediately, that our future therefore is in our own choice as to whether we remain in the vine with our Lord Jesus!

If we go running off to the world, listening to our thoughts or own feelings about what is happening, or we ask other people (whom the Almighty God describes in the Old Testament as “mere mortals”) we are not then looking at all times to our Father through Lord Jesus and making the effort to obey His commands.

The consequences of remaining in the vine or leaving the vine are obviously poles apart. They are two extreme results. Remaining in the vine and obeying our Lord leads to us being able to ask whatever we wish, and it will be done for us. The other is to be “like a branch that is thrown away and withers ready to be burned in the fire. Two choices! Two consequences!

Years ago, when I was at a horse riding competition with my husband, William God spoke to me about “luck”. He told me to tell William not to “accept” wishes of luck from people as “luck does not exist”! I was a little shocked at the time, but quickly realised that this is an awesome truth that is sitting right there in front of everyone, particularly Christians who have the phenomenal opportunity to listen to the commands and words of Lord Jesus! Where in the whole of the Holy Bible is there a word about “luck”? We are the ones who choose whether we will stay “in the vine” or not. There is no “luck” in this choice. We have two choices and those choices lead to very different outcomes for our future.

Will we listen to and obey Lord Jesus or will we listen to the false teachings of the world? He tells us not to call anyone on earth “teacher” because He is our “only Teacher”! Wow! To have the Son of the most HIgh God as our “only teacher” is such a huge privilege and sitting right there for any person who has “ears to hear” and “eyes to see”! Why would anyone on earth not choose to come with Lord Jesus if they really knew Him and how much He loves us? Perhaps the only reasons would be that people have never heard of Him yet, met Him or once they have met Him, do not want to give up their life of self service, sinning and doing what they want to please themselves.

How much notice do you take of every word our Lord Jesus spoke that are written in the precious Gospels in the New Testament in the Holy Bible? If you have been feeling a little lost, nervous or frightened about all that is happening out there in the world, come back to the “vine”. Lord Jesus loves you. He cares about you more than you may ever be able to appreciate. If you make the effort just to talk with Him and ask Him all of your questions as if He is your greatest friend(which He IS) and only Teacher you will be amazed at the changes which happen to you every day!

He follows on to say in John Chapter 15 verse 9, “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. ¹⁰ If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. ¹¹ I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. ¹² My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. ¹³ Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. ¹⁴ You are my friends if you do what I command. ¹⁵ I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. ¹⁶ You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you. ¹⁷ This is my command: Love each other.
