There Is A Lot Of Talk These Days About The Importance Of Following The Science As A Means Of Finding

There is a lot of talk these days about the importance of “Following The Science” as a means of finding 'truth' and determine the best way to make good decisions. As helpful as science may be, all people have a much better internal guide that always points to what ultimately is true, and that is our CONSCIENCE.

The Latin root of science is scientia which is Knowledge and 'Knowing,' and the prefix 'CON' means “with,” so conscience literally means for one to KNOW-WITH — and that ever present person is the still, quiet voice the Holy Spirit.

You see, as today’s scripture says, God writes on our heart what we need to know, and our conscience confirms this, but at this point once you know what is right, what will be your decision?

The later half of this verse gives us the answer.

Either you will follow this revelation of knowledge, or fight against it and ignore the Spirit’s direction and 'accuse and excuse' the truth you which deep-down you KNOW is RIGHT.

Friend, we ALL have that still small voice speaking to us every day in every circumstance of life. When you hear that voice, do not allow yourself to be mislead by so-called 'facts' or 'logic!' Instead, always turn to the RIGHT and follow your CONSCIENCE and it will NEVER lead you astray.

Perhaps one of the biggest misnomers about how one gets to heaven is that it is like a frequent flyer loyalty program. That is, each time you do a good deed you get another punch on your ticket to heaven. Then when your ticket is fully punched, your flight there is free and guaranteed!

But that is NOT what the Bible says.

As the leading verse in this message says — and many, many others like it say — salvation comes from faith and profession in Christ alone and His atonement for our sins. While living a good life, being a good person, and helping others and being a contributor to the world are all good and worthwhile, all the punches in the ticket of good works is worthless when it comes to standing before God.

Friend, it is in Christ alone as your deliverer from sin and death that is the key to eternal life in heaven. You cannot do it through your own efforts, morality, or works. Put your complete faith and trust in Him and He can and will transport you from this world to the next.

…and no ticket is required!

God is a God of the impossible! Just when it seems there is no possible solution or answer and your ship is about to sink, His mighty hand reaches out to save us. He always is our Rescuer and very present Helper in times of trouble so when we are in need, we can depend on Him to help us. But there are two vital things that we must do in order to receive his grace, and that is to Walk in FAITH and to Act in Obedience.

Before that which is 'impossible' can be moved out of the way ask yourself this — “Have you first done what God told you to do, or are you sitting back, procrastinating, or not being obedient to what He said?” Because it is only when we are in AGREEMENT with God and ACTING on what he has called us to do, that He can make that impossibility possible.

Consider this — What if Moses had not obeyed God and didn’t boldly declare before Pharaoh to “Let My People GO!!” What if at the Red Sea he did not obey to stretch out his staff when God told him to part the waters because he doubted that God would not act? But no — Moses didn’t doubt, obeyed, raised his staff in faith and watched God do the impossible, because he operated in FAITH and OBEDIENCE.

My friend, when the 'impossible' seems truly impossible, step out in faith and walk in obedience to what God is calling you to do and then the Impossible will become Possible according to you in partnership with God.

When we were first learning to read we had to pay close attention over each letter and word to comprehend the meaning. This also applies to the Word of God because at a casual glance, it may not make a lot of sense and requires a concerted effort:

“I have declared my ways, and You answered me; Teach me Your statutes. Make me to understand the way of Your precepts; so shall I meditate on Your wonderful works.“ Psalm 119:26-27

God’s Word is alive and active, and our bodies actually respond to it when it is read out loud! I can testify to this personally because I was very sick and I faithfully read God’s healing scriptures out loud and it was not long before He had healed me and now I am Perfectly Well!!! Praise God!

How did this happen? Well, I believed every word I read and professed it daily and often hourly out loud so that God would hear me, but just as important I also believed and expected in faith that God would heal me. In fact the Word instructs us to do so:

“My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eye; Keep them in the midst of your heart For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh.” Proverbs 4:20

God works in the way he works. For whatever reason we may not always be healed BUT we are instructed to meditate and regurgitate his Word. The blessing may come in a variety of other ways, as he seems fit.

My dear friend, trust in the Lord and put all your faith in Him, not just some of it. Let His Word sink deep down inside of you and desire to know it more than anything in all of this world. Read His Word every day and before you go to sleep and when you first wake up and you will be amazed at what happens inside of you!

The famous Pastor and writer, Norman Vincent Peale the author of The Power of Positive Thinking said:

“The way to happiness is to keep your heart from hate, your mind from worry. Live simply, expect little, give much. Scatter sunshine, forget yourself, think of others. Try this for a week and you will be surprised.” Such sound advice! Much of our happiness in life depends on the quality of our thoughts. Have you noticed that happy people are more creative, that they solve problems faster and tend to be more mentally alert?

Happy people tend to lead rich, fulfilled lives, have good relationships, better health habits, stronger immune systems and live longer than pessimists. Let’s face I; happy people are contagious. They have a kind of magnetic aura that causes us to gravitate toward them making us wonder, “How can I catch what they have?”

We also gravitate much the same way to God’s word, because the more we read it, the more it keeps our minds refreshed and renewed with thoughts centered on the good and enriching things of life. The more we absorb it, the more our negative thoughts begin to diminish and fade away, because God’s positive, uplifting thoughts replace them. Jesus said, “These things I have spoken to you that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.”

My friend, discover the exuberant Joy you will find in Jesus and try Pastor Peale’s recipe for happiness this week and Watch what happens!
