John 8:38 (NKJV) 38 I speak what I have seen with My Father, and you do what you have seen with your father<\/span>.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Who is our Daddy?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

There are two fathers; Jehovah God, full of Truth, and the devil, father of lies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

John 8:44 (NKJV) 44 You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Jesus was speaking to the Jews, His people, those who should have known Him. But they just wouldn’t accept Him. Instead, they wanted to kill Him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

How do we know who we\u00a0<\/em>serve?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We pay attention to the things we do; our actions will say a lot. Now, this doesn’t mean that we will be perfect at doing things, even as Believers of Christ. We are going to miss it at times. But, we want to pay attention to the things that we consistently <\/em>act out and we think are OK.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

For\u00a0instance, if we are learning and growing as a follower of Christ, we will try to be honest in what we do. We will be kind to people, even if they are mean or bitter toward us. We will be a forgiving person. Our intent will always be good and right, even though we may sometimes miss it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Maybe we are a nasty, angry and spiteful person. Maybe we’re bitter and always wanting things our way, causing contention, and not forgiving others. Well, we need to look at our actions and see if God is really working in us. Are we allowing Him to bring change in our heart? Or are we just playing the role? Roles don’t fly with God.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

His Spirit in us will lead us to do good things and convict us into repentance when we do make mistakes. The devil will lead us to do bad things and we will feel no conviction from it. No remorse.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If our flesh does not let God change our heart, our flesh\u00a0will line up with\u00a0the\u00a0devil and he will have more\u00a0control over us. We will see this by our actions. And those wicked things we ponder on in our minds, we will act out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Pay attention to the details in ourselves. Those little actions here and there all add up to make the\u00a0big\u00a0picture. We can really see who we are when we watch ourselves\u00a0throughout\u00a0the day.<\/p>\n

How we respond to others and how we act in our own homes, behind\u00a0closed\u00a0doors, says it all.<\/p>\n

Who are we letting have control over us?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Revelation 3:20 (NKJV) 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<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Jesus is knocking. It’s up to us to open the door and let\u00a0Him\u00a0dine with us\u00a0today. Amen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
