Listen "Knock Knock Joke"
Episode Synopsis
In our day to day lives it's easy to joke and even pass off some intense circumstances with a joke, or funny comment. But I've noticed that this joking can also play into our spiritual lives as well, and my friend if you, or someone you know doesn't know Jesus, there's nothing funny about it.
So let's personalize this; have you ever tried to tell someone about Jesus and had them turn your faith into into a joke? Maybe you dont know the Lord, and you've been making Jesus Christ out to be some kind of joke in your life saying things like "I'll live while I'm alive, and sleep when I'm dead". Though it may sound appealing to do as you please while you're alive, and then live for the Lord when you die, it just doesn't work out that way my friend.
Listen the truth is that Jesus loves you, and there's nothing that you can do to change that, but frankly speaking, if we choose to leave the door of our hearts closed while Jesus stands at the door knocking, then we shouldn't expect the Lord to open the door to heaven when one day we come knocking either.
Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.
You see the Lord wants to enter into your life, to have fellowship with you, to love you, and to shape you into a man or woman after God's own heart, and though you may claim that Jesus is the Lord of your life, the truth is in your heart. Ask yourself; is He is truly living in your heart, ask yourself if you've truly opened the door to your heart and are having fellowship with Him. If you've answered "No" then it's time open the door and truly let Him live in you. Jesus doesn't see this gift as joke and the truth is neither should we. So though our day to day conversation may be filled with jokes, let your relationship with God be confidently proclaimed as not just some passive relationship, but proclaim the truth, Jesus is your source of life.
