Every Year!

Daily writing prompt
Share what you know about the year you were born.

Train yourself to rely
On the firm reality
And presence of God’s love,
Not on pie in the sky.
There is no need to try
To find an alibi
So that you can deny
The bad things that you’ve done.
Christ knowing all your sin
Loved you enough to die
So He could nullify
All of your guilty shame.
Depend on the supply
Of God’s unending love.
(Romans 5:8)

Every day and every year keep Jesus first in your life. Christians need to gather in the love and the name of Jesus, (Matthew 18:20) not to put their attention on a preacher and his name. (Philippians 2:9)

Preachers who name “ministries” after themselves proclaim the wrong name. No name but Jesus can bring salvation. (Acts 4:12)

Don’t align yourself with a preacher’s name. (1 Corinthians 3:1-4) Listen to and obey the risen Jesus instead. (John 10:27)

When Christians talk, they should glorify the name of the Lord (1 Corinthians 1:31) not a preacher’s name. (Romans 10:13) Everything Christians say and do should be done in the name of Jesus. (Colossians 3:17)

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
