Bez ticības nav iespējams izpatikt Dievam

Without faith it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God

Slava Dievam, par vēl vienu iespēju mācīties no Viņa.

Šodien es gribētu parunāt ar jums, par ļoti svarīgu tēmu, konkrētāk, par ticību. Katrs no mums ar savu dzīvi vēlās izpatikt Dievam. Bībele saka, ka bez ticības nav iespējams izpatikt Dievam.

Ticība, bet tieši bibliskā ticība — tā ir sadarbība ar Dievu. Dievs nedarīs visu tavā vietā. Viņš nedarīs tev to, ko pats nevēlies priekš sevis darīt. Nevajag sēdēt, pasīvi saliekot rokas, cerībā, ka Dievs uzliks maizi uz tava galda.

Pierādījums tam, ka tev ir ticība Dievam, parādās tad, kad tu pildi tās instrukcijas, kuras jau zini. Tieši tajā ir visa jēga lūgšanām un Bībeles lasīšanai, — lai iepazītu Viņa gribu un izprastu Viņa domas, saprastu, ko Dievs vēlas un pielietot to visās savās dzīves situācijās.

Tiklīdz, Dievs atklāj tev Savas vēlēšanās, attiecībā uz jebkuru tavas dzīves sfēru, Viņš gaida no tevis atbilstošu rīcību. Tieši tava rīcība, kura pamatota ar Viņa Vārdu, ir tavas ticības pierādījums. Dieva Vārds saka, ka ticība bez darbiem ir mirusi.

«Līdzīgi kā miesa bez gara ir nedzīva, tāpat arī nedzīva ir ticība bez darbiem.» (Jēkaba vēstule 2:26).

Visā Bībelē mēs redzam, ka ticība vienmēr bijusi saistīta ar ticīgu cilvēku darbību un rīcību. Pēteris teica Jēzum, ka viņš iemetīs tīklus pēc Viņa Vārda:

«Un Sīmanis atbildēja un Viņam sacīja: “Meistar, mēs cauru nakti esam strādājuši un nenieka neesam dabūjuši; bet uz Tavu vārdu es gribu tīklu izmest.» (Lūkas evaņģēlijs 5:5).

Tas kļuva par lūzuma brīdi Pētera darbā un dzīvē.
Vai tu arī vēlies piedzīvot Dievišķu izrāvienu savā dzīvē? Ticība tajā spēlēs atslēgas lomu. Tomēr, ticība tie ir konkrēti darbi, nevis pasīva Dieva brīnuma gaidīšana. Šodien caur savu darbību un rīcību ticībā pierādi Dievam, ka tu tici Viņam.

Atceries, ka ticība — tā ir sadarbība starp cilvēku un Dievu. Dievs dara Savu daļu, bet cilvēks — savu.

Lai Dievs šodien bagātīgi tevi svētī! Uz drīzu tikšanos!

    Yesterday we saw that God had asked Abram to leave his country, his father’s house and his relatives and to go to the land that He would show.“Now the Lord had said to Abram: “Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you” (Genesis, 12:1).
  • Sacrifice as a measure of love! V

    You cannot say you love and at the same time neglect spending time with the one whom you love. It is simply not possible! Time is our life. By spending time with the one whom you love, you are giving or sharing with them part of your life.In order to earn money, you need time; in order to spend money, you need time. If you have money but do not have time to spend it, this money will not bring you any blessings. If you lose the money, you can earn it back tomorrow. But if you lose time, you are not getting it back!
  • Constant fellowship with God

    Having constant fellowship with God we begin to see ourselves as God´s chosen ones, holy and beloved. Each of us is unique and some can see it and believe it, however, not everybody has revealed it for himself. If you look at yourself as at the God´s chosen one, you life will easily reflect a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance. In addition you will notice how these qualities reflect in your inner world and your relationships with God and other people as well.
  • Lay hold on eternal life! III

    Laying hold of eternal life means that a person strives to stay on the narrow road which leads to eternal life. Jesus knew that it would be so convenient for many to walk the broad road; being on this road, a person feels comfortable and lives without any restrictions; he does what he wants to do and is not limited by any commitments. But the Bible says that it is the way of sin, because a person is not accountable and moves ‘without brakes’, so to speak; this way leads to destruction. God says that we shouldn’t walk on this way. We must flee sin; we must cast aside all the worldly, ungodly things that hinder us, otherwise we won’t get to our destination – eternal life. Jesus says that many people will deny faith.
  • The lordship of Jesus Christ II

    «The LORD said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand, till I make Your enemies Your footstool.” The LORD shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of Your enemies» (Psalm 110:1-2).This passage talks about Christ: «Rule in the midst of Your enemies», but the Body of Christ — His Church — is included in this prophetic word. Jesus was told to sit at the right hand of God; but it would be God’s children that would overcome God’s enemies and every thing that rise against the will of God. God wants us to rule and reign in the midst of the enemies and unfavourable circumstances. We must rule because we have been given God’s authority and we were born conquerors.
  • Prayer is submitting to the will of God

    When we pray we place ourselves in submission to God’s will for our lives. The very fact that you come to God in prayer is the proof of your submission to God.The Bible tells us to pray always; it is the command of the Lord. That is why when I come to God in prayer then the very act of praying places me in the position of submission to this command. In other words, if I don’t pray, thus I demonstrate the lack of submission to the will of God; because praying is the command of God.
