If you REALLY want to walk with Him.... Rating:
5 / 5
I have read many devotionals since my REAL walk with Christ and none have held a candle to this devotional. If you want an up close, personal and meaningful relationship with Christ this book will explain how to have one and as one review stated "No nonsense relationship".
Those that are truly striving for that relationship will understand this devotional and those who just can't get it I refer you to Mathew 13:19. I urge you to get the understanding because I don't want any of my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ or even not with Christ to fall by the wayside.
This book will help your relationship soar to higher heights because it teaches you really how to be one and like Christ. It is never ending since it is for the entire year & My Utmost for His Highest will be life changing.
Today's Excerpt: February 5
ARE YOU READY TO BE POURED OUT AS AN OFFERING?
"If I am being poured out as a drink offering on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all" (Philippians 2:17)
Are you willing to sacrifice yourself for the work of another believer-to pour out your life sacrificially for the ministry and faith of others? Or do you say, "I am not willing to be poured out right now, and I don't want God to tell me how to serve Him. I want to choose the place of my own sacrifice. And I want to have certain people watching me and saying, `Well done.'" It is one thing to follow God's way of service if you are regarded as a hero, but quite another thing if the road marked out for you by God requires becoming a "doormat" under other people's feet. God's purpose may be to teach you to say, "I know how to be abased..." (Philippians 4:12). Are you ready to be sacrificed like that? Are you ready to be less than mere drop in the bucket-to be so totally insignificant that no one remembers you even if they think of those you served? Are you willing to give and be poured out until you are used up and exhausted-not seeking to be ministered but to minister? Some saints cannot do menial work while maintaining a saintly attitude, because they feel such service is beneath their dignity
I hope this excerpt have blessed you as it blessed me and if you don't understand it feel free to email me so the enemy won't snatch it away from you. Love you and God bless
Not my highest Review Rating:
1 / 5
This book has been recommended many times and also referenced in many things I have read before. But truthfully, I purchased it 6 months ago and I just cannot get into it. It's hard to put it into words but it just drags for me and I have not been able to read it. If and when I ever do, I'll be sure to get back to you!
My Utmost For His Highest Rating:
5 / 5
An absolute must have for any Christian who wishes to better understand salvation through Jesus. A challenge to your thinking. One will have an awakening if read in earnest.
