hello everybody how is it going I hope
that you are all having an extremely
blessed and fruitful day today so far I
know I am I know I am and I am excited
to get into this message so this message
here is that God is trying to reach you
and I'm going to be explaining how you
can reach him and how you can hear from
him let's get right into it God is
trying to reach you and that that may
mean that you need to ask God questions
you need to talk to God you just need to
spend time with God so that he can reach
you and he can get to you let Jesus
Christ speak to you today get up in
prayer get up in your word apply God's
word to your life you know even go out
and evangelize you know just spread the
love of Jesus Christ to others and also
let him reach you today by spending time
with him open up your Bible because
reading your Bible is one of if not the
easiest way to hear from God God can
speak to you in many different ways the
Bible you know thoughts your thoughts
other people and also I just want
explain something else about intrusive
thoughts which I've been getting a lot
of messages on on Instagram which y'all
should go and follow me on by the way
but intrusive thoughts are these
thoughts that are in your head when
you're praying worshiping you know just
spending time with God or even just in
time in general there are these thoughts
that are bad they're bad thoughts bad
things that you know maybe you want to
say or just bad things flowing through
your head now there is one way to combat
that and that is with Jesus Christ call
Upon Jesus and ask him to get those
thoughts and remove those thoughts from
your head get him to remove those
thoughts from your head and have him
help you to seek him more and more to
help remove those thoughts for good
because I have been there you know I'm
sure you have been there I'm sure
everyone else that has that is a
follower of Christ has been
there everybody else that has been a
follower of Christ has probably had
intrusive thoughts at least once in
their life and now intrusive thoughts
that may mean you could be praying and
then you could hear a thought that says
why you even doing this man you don't
even love God and you're like you know
like you're like bro come on now God you
know that is not me or you're praying
and you're like man come on you don't
even believe God and you're like hey who
said that you know what I'm saying like
it's just these thoughts that are in
your head that are distracting you from
God now make sure that you call Upon
Jesus to set you free from those
thoughts and to help you get those
thoughts away and seek him more and more
every single day and then Matthew 6 :33
it says but seek ye first the kingdom of
God and his righteousness and all these
things shall be added unto you now I
have heard this story from somebody else
when they were struggling with lust and
when lust was really getting to them
they fought with 100% of their effort
they turn on worship music and they they
turn on worship music and they just sat
in the presence of God while getting
tempted with this lust which was the
worst Temptation that they've ever had
but they endured to the end and they
have not filled the Temptation since
which is why the Bible tells us to seek
first the kingdom of God the Kingdom of
Heaven seek first the kingdom of heaven
and his righteousness and all these
things shall be added unto you now
seeking first the kingdom of God is
fighting that Temptation with all your
power and all your might and seeking
Jesus first in any sort of
situation this may mean seeking him
first before a school day seeking him
first you know before you go to play
your sports seeking him first before you
even eat you know what I'm saying that
is something that we need to do and that
is something that I feel like even I
sometimes don't do enough you know there
will be sometimes where I'm eating my
food and then I forget to see my grace
or there will be a time before school
where you know I forget to say a prayer
before the school day which is not good
and I need to change that I definitely
need to change that and start seeking
Jesus more and more every single day now
seeking first the kingdom of heaven is
not or the kingdom of God is not just
you know putting him first in all of in
all of your situations because obviously
yes it is because you are seeking first
the kingdom of heaven or the kingdom of
God I'm sorry I it could it goes either
way I think I think in one of the other
versions it says the kingdom of heaven
so that's why I'm saying that but
seeking first the kingdom of heaven is
also just reading your Bible and
spending time with God in short amounts
of time throughout the day where you
have free time you know that is spending
time with God before you know during
your lunch period when you have a free
period or during stud hall or something
like that which is the times where most
people don't really see you know what
I'm saying it's the times where you
spend with God that people don't really
see as much as you know what I'm doing
right now cuz people are obviously going
to see this but what they don't see is
the time that I'm spending you know
before bed spending time with God or
before school that I'm spending time
with God or even just sitting in my room
spending that time with God that is
something that people don't really see
as often and that is me seeking first
the kingdom of heaven or the kingdom of
God
let God into your life a lot of times
where we don't hear from God is that
because we are not spending time with
God we are not letting God into our
lives to help us grow in our
relationship with him we are not letting
God into our time and space we think we
are too busy or too you know just we
don't we just simply don't want to spend
time with him so we are not letting time
for God and we are not opening up that
space for him to enter into the room
with us or to enter into our presence
which is something else because how are
you going to go over to a friend's house
that you just met literally you met some
random person yesterday right and you go
over asking them if you can stay with
them they're obviously going to say no
right but if it's someone that you spend
a lot of time with and you go over to
their house and you know it's your best
friend and you go over there and ask
them
hey hey uh I don't got a place to stay
tonight you think I can stay with you
and then obviously if they're if they're
your best friend they're going to say
yes you know so that is why we have to
spend time with God and we have to allow
time for God in our lives because if
we're not spending time with God
throughout our lives how is he going to
spend time with us eternally make God
your best friend today and allow time
for him every single day allow time for
him even just ask him just ask God to
come into your presence to come into
your space and to come into your area
and just genuinely help you spend time
with him to help you grow in
relationship with him help help you feel
his presence and love more and more
every single day spend time with God
allow time for God in your life I know
it's going to feel busy I know you're
going to want to not do it you're going
to feel so bored you're going to want to
not spend time with God every single day
but you have to it is a necessity in
your walk with Christ one of the main
reasons that God is trying to reach you
is because you don't spend enough time
with him and the the more time that you
spend with him the more he's going to
speak to you and when you have not spent
enough time with him it's much much much
harder for him to get to you and to hear
and for you to hear from him you know
when you're a lukewarm Christian it's
going to be a lot harder for you to hear
from God than when you are a strong
Christian a strong follower of Christ or
a lukewarm follower of Christ you know
there's a difference there there's a
huge difference there because you're
obviously going to hear from God as a
strong follower of Christ and don't get
me wrong as a luk warm follower of
Christ you're going to be able to hear
from God but it is just going to be so
much
harder and then in this situation where
you are lukewarm and you ask God you
know you say this one prayer throughout
your day you know not even every single
day you just say it once maybe a week
and you ask to and you ask God to hear
from him and you don't and that even
ruins your faith even more if that is
something that is you know you you have
to spend time with God more and more
every single day to hear from him
because if you're lukewarm Christian you
can't just ask God this one prayer once
a week and expect to hear from him and
if you don't your faith grows even lower
and lower because there's times as a
strong Christian where I still don't
even hear from God but I don't take it
as something that I should Lose My Faith
from I think it I take it as something I
should grow and grow and grow my faith
in so that I can hear from God more and
more and I can receive those answers
that I need from him hearing from God is
something that's not as difficult as it
may seem hearing from God is something
that you can do like this all you got to
do is open up your Bible and talk to God
and just spend time in his presence I
love y'all so much I love yall so much
and I genuinely care for you guys and I
want you guys to receive this message
and to genuinely start to be able to
hear from God more and more every single
day and you will let God reach you every
single day let God come into your life
today and let him genuinely speak to
you and before I get end and before I
end out and close out this video I do
