You undoubtedly felt akward the first time you had to learn which fork to use. But with that knowledge you can enter any dining experience with confidence. The same is true when you dine at God's table. At first it seems difficult. But learning the right manners makes it possible for you to be in any situation and please the Father. |

Table manners at God's table: 1. You have to do your own chewing. Too many Christians expect God to take out a spoon and dish up the blessing for them. He is supposed to place it in our mouths, work our jaws to chew it up, and help us to swa11ow it. We want God to do everything. The fact is that you have responsibility in God's sovereign world. |

2. Accept the seating. Take the lowest seat, the seat of humility and service. If God wants you to sit higher up, He will show you that, but err on the side of humility, not pride.

3. Finish the meal. John 3:16 tells us, God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son. Some believe that because God has already come and died for the sins of the world, they dont have to do anytng else. However, its important to finish the phrase regarding man's responsibility: whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life. You must come to Him in order to receive forgiveness that He purchased for you. |

4. Read the menu. You must spend time reading what God has prepared. Read your Bible, meditate on the Word. It will give you strength and illumination according to God's plan for your life. It will keep you on course and remind you of your responsibilities in order to fulfill the plan of God.

5.Count the fruit. If you are not willing to bear fruit for Him, then He is not obligated to answer your requests, even if you ask things in His name. Jesus declares: Everyone that the Father gives me will come to me, and anyone who comes to me i will never drive away. (John 6:37) |

The Holy Spirit inspires us to go to Jesus and do what He asks of us. His Sovereignty makes the first move towards us, but because He gave us free will, we must move toward Him as well.

Any concern too small to be turned into a prayer is too small to be made into a burden. ~Corrie ten Boom~ |
