There Are Consequences for Disobedience

“In the wilderness their desires ran wild, testing God’s patience in that dry wasteland. So he gave them what they asked for, but he sent a plague along with it.”

Psalm 106:14-15 (NLT)

God has given you all the rules you need for living. The Bible is the manual for life! In it you find all the laws God established for living a happy, healthy, and holy life.

When you follow God’s plan, things work out well. But any time you forget God and ignore the playbook, things start to fall apart in your life—physically, emotionally, financially, relationally, and in every other way.

You hurt yourself—and others—when you doubt God’s goodness and disobey him.

This happened many times in the Bible. Every time a person or a group of people forgot God and turned away from him, they had some major problems.

Psalm 106 tells us about one such scenario: “In the wilderness their desires ran wild, testing God’s patience in that dry wasteland. So he gave them what they asked for, but he sent a plague along with it” (Psalm 106:14-15 NLT).

If you say to God, “I want to do what I want to do when I want to do it,” sometimes he will give you what you want. But there are often unwanted consequences to getting everything you want.

Having all you want to eat, whenever you want to eat it, can lead to obesity and high blood sugar. Having all you want to drink, anytime you want to drink it, can lead to alcoholism and heart disease. Ignoring God’s very clear guidelines about his gift of sex can lead to STDs and broken families.

When you ignore the healthy principles God teaches in the Bible, you’re telling him you think you know better. But disobedience always has consequences, sometimes big and sometimes small.

There is no better time than today to start making choices in obedience to God’s Word. When you live in a way that honors God, you’ll find that great blessings follow.

Quítate lo Viejo y Ponte lo Nuevo

“En cambio, dejen que el Espíritu les renueve los pensamientos y las actitudes. Pónganse la nueva naturaleza, creada para ser a la semejanza de Dios, quien es verdaderamente justo y santo”. Efesios 4:23-24 (NTV)

Si quieres tener un cambio duradero en tu vida, tienes que empezar con tu cuerpo, y eso incluye tu forma de pensar para que honres a Dios a través de las cosas que piensas y permites en tu mente.

Efesios 4:23-24 dice, “En cambio, dejen que el Espíritu les renueve los pensamientos y las actitudes. Pónganse la nueva naturaleza, creada para ser a la semejanza de Dios, quien es verdaderamente justo y santo” (NTV).

Date cuenta de que hay un quitarse y un ponerse. Tu salud realmente se resume en detener algo que vienes haciendo y empezar algo que tienes que hacer. Deja de poner cosas negativas e hirientes en tu cuerpo, y comienza a ponerte cosas que edifican.

Deja de poner cosas negativas e hirientes en tu mente, y comienza a observar y escuchar las cosas de Jesús que te edifican y te hacen más como Él. En la renovación de tu mente, tienes que quitar, antes de poder poner.

Digamos que vas a una tienda a buscar un abrigo nuevo. Tomas uno y entras con él a un probador. Si ya estás usando un abrigo, no entras ahí y te pones el abrigo nuevo sobre tu viejo abrigo. Eso no sería sabio, ¡pues no vas a saber si te queda! Lo que tiene sentido es que te quites el abrigo viejo antes de ponerte el nuevo.

Eso es verdad espiritualmente, emocionalmente y mentalmente, también. Te tienes que quitar lo viejo antes de ponerte lo nuevo.

Reflexiona sobre esto:  

¿Qué cosas necesitas quitar de tu vida, mente y cuerpo?
¿Qué cosas nuevas necesitas para llenar tu mente y cuerpo? ¿Qué hábitos nuevos tendrás que desarrollar para lograr eso?
¿De qué formas deseas ser más como Dios en “verdadera rectitud y santidad”?

Your Gifts and Talents Are Not Just for Your Good

“I always thank my God for you and for the gracious gifts he has given you, now that you belong to Christ Jesus. Now you have every spiritual gift you need as you eagerly wait for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

1 Corinthians 1:4, 7 (NLT)

When God thought you up, he created you with a number of different gifts, talents, abilities, and skills. There are certain ways you think and things you do that you’re just naturally good at.

Those gifts and abilities are how God shaped you. But God did not shape you uniquely for your benefit. Your gifts are not just for your own good. Your gifts are for the benefit of everybody else. And that means their gifts are for your benefit, too.

One of my gifts is teaching. I’ve put that gift to work for many years now for the benefit of other people. In the same way, your gifts can benefit the people in your life.

You may already know what you’re really good at. Why do you think God made you good at those things? He wants you to use those gifts for others!

How should you use those gifts or talents in the time left before Jesus comes back? Well, you should use them to reach others for Jesus. You should use them to be an ambassador of love in the world. In fact, if you’re not using those unique gifts the way God intended, then you’re really just wasting them.

God didn’t give you gifts just to use them for yourself. James 4:17 says it like this: “Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it” (NLT).

If you know what you’re good at and you know that many people in the world probably need your help, what are you going to do about it? Who are you serving? Who are you going to help between now and when the story ends and eternity begins?

God has given you—like the church the apostle Paul wrote to in 1 Corinthians—everything you need to serve well. “I always thank my God for you and for the gracious gifts he has given you, now that you belong to Christ Jesus. Now you have every spiritual gift you need as you eagerly wait for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Corinthians 1:4, 7 NLT).

Don’t waste your God-given abilities. Use your gifts to serve God by serving others.

Cuidar de tu Cuerpo es un Acto de Adoración

“Por lo tanto, hermanos, tomando en cuenta la misericordia de Dios, les ruego que cada uno de ustedes, en adoración espiritual, ofrezca su cuerpo como sacrificio vivo, santo y agradable a Dios”.   Romanos 12:1 (NVI)

Para que el cambio ocurra en cualquier área de tu vida, ya sea financiera, vocacional, educativa, mental o relacional, tienes que comenzar con lo físico.

¿Por qué? Porque tu cuerpo afecta tu comportamiento. Tus músculos afectan tu estado de ánimo y tu motivación. Tu fisiología puede afectar tu psicología.

Romanos 12:1 dice: “Por lo tanto, hermanos, tomando en cuenta la misericordia de Dios, les ruego que cada uno de ustedes, en adoración espiritual, ofrezca su cuerpo como sacrificio vivo, santo y agradable a Dios” (NVI).

El problema con un sacrificio vivo es que puede escoger salir del altar. Hacemos esto todo el tiempo. Nos ofrecemos a Dios, y luego nos retiramos. Este no es un ofrecimiento de una vez para siempre. ¡Tienes que hacerlo cuatro, cinco, o tal vez 10 veces al día!

Entonces, ¿cuál es “tu verdadera y adecuada adoración”? Hay tres cosas que puedes hacer con tu cuerpo que la Biblia dice que son actos de adoración:

Limpia tu cuerpo . La Biblia dice en 2 Corintios 7:1: “Limpiémonos de todo lo que pueda contaminar nuestro cuerpo o espíritu. Y procuremos alcanzar una completa santidad porque tememos a Dios” (NTV). Limpias tu cuerpo controlando lo que permites en tu mente a través de lo que miras y escuchas, y en tu cuerpo por lo que comes y bebes.
Cuida tu cuerpo . Efesios 5:29 dice: “Nadie odia su propio cuerpo, sino que lo alimenta y lo cuida tal como Cristo lo hace por la iglesia” (NTV). Mantener tu cuerpo en forma es un acto de adoración a Dios.
Controla tu cuerpo . “Cada uno aprenda a controlar su propio cuerpo de una manera santa y honrosa” 1 Tesalonicenses 4:4 (NVI). Controla tu cuerpo para que no te controle. No hay razón para decir: “¡No pude evitarlo!”.

No importa qué tipo de cambio deseas hacer en tu vida, se requiere energía. Para tener la energía para alcanzar tus metas, el cambio tiene que comenzar con tu cuerpo.

Reflexiona sobre esto:

¿Qué maneras prácticas de honrar a Dios a través de tu cuerpo puedes hacer hoy?
¿En qué cosas pequeñas necesitas trabajar para controlar tu cuerpo? ¿Cuáles son las grandes cosas?
¿Cómo puede Cristo “alimentar y cuidar a la iglesia”? ¿Por qué crees que Dios quiere que hagas lo mismo con tu cuerpo?

Do You Really Need Everything You’ve Got?

“Sell your possessions and give to those in need. This will store up treasure for you in heaven! And the purses of heaven never get old or develop holes. Your treasure will be safe; no thief can steal it and no moth can destroy it.”

Luke 12:33 (NLT)

Did you know there’s a bank in heaven?

There is! The book of Luke talks about storing up treasure in heaven. As a Christian, this should be the bank where you make your greatest investments of your time, talent, and resources.

In the book of James, the writer emphasizes the generosity of God toward his followers in five different places. He says everything you have is because of God’s generosity. You’d have nothing if it weren’t for God. You wouldn’t even exist! Every good and perfect gift comes from God—it’s all because of his generosity.

God’s generosity with you should make you generous with other people. You should use what you’ve been given to help others.

Whatever you use to point people to Jesus Christ will be stored in your bank in heaven. You’re making an investment in eternity when you use your resources for the most important thing: helping people have a relationship with God.

One day a very wealthy man came to Jesus and asked him how to prepare for eternity in heaven. This man had far more money than he needed or could even enjoy. He wanted to know how he could have eternal life.

Jesus gave this man some investment advice: “Sell your possessions and give to those in need. This will store up treasure for you in heaven! And the purses of heaven never get old or develop holes. Your treasure will be safe; no thief can steal it and no moth can destroy it” (Luke 12:33 NLT). In other words, liquidate some of your assets here on earth and send them on ahead to heaven, where your treasure will last forever.

What about you? Do you really need everything you’ve got? Or is Jesus speaking to you through these verses—telling you to give some of what you have to help people who have a lot less?

When you’re generous, it changes your perspective on what you actually need. And, more importantly, every time you choose generosity, you’re storing up treasure in heaven.

No le des Lugar al Diablo

 

“No permitan que el sol se ponga mientras siguen enojados, porque el enojo da lugar al diablo”.  Efesios 4:26b-27 (NTV)

Cuando le das lugar al diablo en tu vida, él toma una fortaleza. ¿Qué significa eso? Si le das a Satanás el control de una pequeña parte de tu vida, pronto se hará cargo de todo. Le das lugar en tu vida, y él lo convierte en una fortaleza.

Permítanme explicarlo de esta forma: Un día, las fuerzas aliadas aterrizaron en las playas de Normandía. Era fundamental que establecieran un campamento en la playa, — es decir, un lugar en la playa que les permita establecer un área de preparación para traer más hombres y equipo para la batalla. Desde ese pequeño lugar, las fuerzas aliadas en un esfuerzo por liberar a Francia, pudieron hacer presión.

Pero Satanás no está tratando de liberarte. Él quiere establecer un lugar en tu vida con el fin de tomar más y más de ella. Una vez que se profundiza lo suficiente en un área de pecado, convierte el lugar en una fortaleza, y hace que sea más difícil para ti tomar de nuevo el control de tu vida.

¿Cómo Satanás consigue un lugar en tu vida? En Efesios 4:27, el ejemplo es el enojo, pero podría ser cualquier emoción negativa. Si llenas tu vida de preocupaciones, él ha ganado un lugar en tu vida. Si llenas tu vida de resentimiento, él ha ganado lugar en tu vida. Si permites que la culpa se convierta en vergüenza, Satanás tiene lugar en tu vida.

El Apóstol Pablo dice que la mejor manera de lidiar con estas emociones negativas es inmediatamente. Él dice: “No permitan que el sol se ponga mientras siguen enojados, porque el enojo da lugar al diablo” Efesios 4:26b-27 (NTV). Tú decides hacerle frente de inmediato.

De lo contrario, la emoción negativa afectará tu corazón y le darás a Satanás la oportunidad de establecer un lugar en tu vida.

Reflexiona sobre esto:

¿Qué emoción negativa le has permitido al diablo usar para tomar un lugar en tu vida? o ¿qué emoción tiene el potencial de convertirse en un lugar para el Diablo?
¿Qué significa que una emoción negativa afecte tu vida?
¿Cómo puedes ser precavido acerca de cómo lidiar con las emociones negativas que puedan surgir en tu vida?

Let Trials Make You More Like Jesus

“For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.”

James 1:3-4 (NLT)

We know the end of the story: Jesus is coming back! When he does, he will make all things right and just. And if you are his follower, you will spend eternity with him.

Knowing how the story ends should change everything. One of the biggest ways it affects your life is that it should motivate you to use adversity to become stronger spiritually.

That’s what James says you should do while you’re on earth waiting for Jesus’ second coming: “For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing” (James 1:3-4 NLT).

You will undoubtedly face stress, problems, difficulties, and trouble in this life. In the time between now and when you die or Christ comes back, you should use those trials to develop endurance and become more like Christ in character.

Does becoming like Christ sound impossible? The Bible says God can do that work in us: “May God himself, the God who makes everything holy and whole, make you holy and whole” (1 Thessalonians 5:23 The Message).

Are you whole—like these verses say you can be—or are you fragmented? Are you put together, or are you falling apart? These days, we all feel like we’re falling apart a little—and that’s okay. You’re not supposed to have it all together. You’re not perfect, and you won’t be while you’re here on earth. You can’t change that.

What you can do is work on getting spiritually fit in preparation for the coming of Jesus Christ.

It’s important to stay physically fit and take care of your mental health. But you cannot neglect your spiritual fitness. You don’t have to be the strongest, fastest, or healthiest when it comes to being spiritually fit. You just need to keep working on it and recognize that the trouble you face is often an opportunity to grow in faith.

If you’re out of work, if you’re sick, if you’re feeling the weight of prejudice, turn to God’s Word and his promises. When it feels like you’re falling apart, remember that God is still working to make you more like him, and he can use even the most difficult circumstances in your life to do it.

Let Your Trials Lead You to Jesus

Jesus says those who share in his suffering will also share in his reward in heaven. But the first step toward this is to follow Jesus as your Lord and Savior. God says today is the day to follow Jesus: “‘At the right time I heard your prayers. On the day of salvation I helped you.’ I tell you that the ‘right time’ is now, and the ‘day of salvation’ is now” (2 Corinthians 6:2 NCV).

Why wait any longer? Today is the day to step across the line and tell Jesus Christ, “I want to have a relationship with you.”

How do you do that? Start by talking to him in prayer. He’s listening to you right now! He’s already done everything that needs to be done. That’s why he came to earth. That’s why he died on the cross and was resurrected.

He wants to give you a gift, and the way you accept it is by telling him in prayer, “Today, Jesus, I want to take the first step toward you. I want to get to know you. I admit I don’t understand it all. But, as much as I know how, I want to open up my life to you. I want to receive your gift for me. Replace my guilt with your gift of forgiveness. Replace my worries with your gift of peace. Replace my fear of death with your gift of eternal life. Right now I invite you to come and make your home in my heart. I pray this in your name. Amen.”

No Puedes Cambiar Todo por Tu Cuenta

“Dejen de decir mentiras. Digamos siempre la verdad a todos porque nosotros somos miembros de un mismo cuerpo”.  Efesios 4:25 (NTV)

Los cambios perdurables requieren de una comunidad honesta y auténtica. En tu vida necesitas personas que te digan la verdad en amor. Hay ciertas cosas en ti que jamás cambiarán sin la ayuda de otros.

Puede que haya ciertas cosas en tu vida que te avergüencen mucho, sobre las que no quieres hablar con nadie. Pero, ¿te ha servido de algo esta estrategia? Si pudieras cambiar tu vida por tu propia cuenta, ya lo hubieras hecho. ¡Sencillamente, no puedes!

Debes dejar de mentirte a ti mismo. Si quieres cambiar, vas a necesitar la ayuda de otras personas. Necesitarás ser parte de una comunidad auténtica, de absoluta confianza. Por esto es que los grupos pequeños son tan importantes. Pero necesitas más que un grupo pequeño. Necesitas de una persona dentro de ese grupo con la que puedas ser completamente abierto y honesto. No estás obligado a abrirte con todas las personas, pero sí con alguien.

Dios nos diseñó de tal forma que nos necesitemos unos a otros, pero esto significa que no podemos deshacernos de nuestros malos hábitos y complejos personales por nosotros mismos. No puedes hacerlo solo, porque Dios te hizo para que necesites a otras personas.

La Biblia dice: “Dejen de decir mentiras. Digamos siempre la verdad a todos porque nosotros somos miembros de un mismo cuerpo”  Efesios 4:25 (NTV). Si eres un creyente, perteneces al cuerpo de Cristo; perteneces a otros creyentes. No fuiste hecho para vivir la vida cristiana a solas: no puedes hacerlo.

Si en serio quieres cambiar tus defectos más profundos y sombríos, debes vencer el temor siendo honesto. Desperdiciamos una enorme cantidad de energía tratando de encubrir nuestros pecados, nuestras heridas, nuestros complejos y nuestros defectos. Si gastas el mismo tiempo siendo honesto con lo que no está bien en tu vida, en vez de  desperdiciar el tiempo encubriéndolo, vas a disponer de mucha más energía para lo que está bien en tu vida.

El mayor estorbo para la santidad es nuestro deseo de quedar bien. Una vez que lo superamos, estamos libres de un enorme obstáculo que se interpone entre nosotros y el punto en donde Dios quiere que estemos.

¿Quieres un cambio en tu vida? Ábrete con alguien y sé honesto respecto a tus fracasos y fallas. 

Reflexiona sobre esto:

¿Quiénes son las personas con las que honesta y transparentemente puedes discutir tus luchas?
¿Qué podemos aprender acerca de Jesús cuando estamos en una comunidad genuina con otros creyentes? ¿Qué está modelando en el mundo ese tipo de comunidad?
“El mayor estorbo para la santidad es nuestro deseo de quedar bien”. ¿Cuán real ha sido esto en tu vida?

How to Fight Darkness with Light

“Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”

Romans 12:21 (NIV)

I don’t know if there’s anything more counter-cultural in the world today than responding to evil with good. And because it’s so counter-cultural, it can be one of the hardest things to do.

When there’s a bully trying to make trouble in your life, you need to respond positively. “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good” (Romans 12:21 NIV).

That’s a step of faith, isn’t it? Because everything in you probably wants to overcome evil with evil and fight darkness with more darkness. That’s what the world tells you to do: Fight dirty. That’s why it takes faith to go against what your flesh and culture are telling you to do and instead trust in God and respond to darkness with his light.

You fight darkness with light. You fight hatred with love. You fight unkindness with kindness. You don’t let evil overcome you. You overcome evil with good.

That’s tough to do. But it gets even tougher: “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:44 NIV).

Is that easy? No. Is it unusual? Yes. Is it a choice? Absolutely. It’s your choice to be better than the bully. Choosing light over darkness means walking the way of Jesus. And Jesus wouldn’t just walk away from a fight and forget. He would lay down his life if that’s what he needed to do to show how much he loves someone—and that’s exactly what he did.

God doesn’t want you to retaliate. He also wants you to do good. He wants you to show love to even the hardest hearts by praying for them and asking God to give them hearts like his.

Jesus gave us the greatest example of responding in love and praying for enemies. When you follow his example, you’re going to stand out in a world where everyone thinks of themselves first.

Taking the step of faith to overcome evil with good will not always be easy, but it will make you a powerful witness for Jesus.

How did Jesus show us how to overcome evil with good and love our enemies?
Why do you think God wants us to pray for the people who bully or harass us? What difference should it make?
Have you ever consistently prayed for one of your enemies? How did your heart change toward that person?

Today is the day to take a step of faith by trusting in Jesus. Here’s how you start.

The Bible says Jesus laid down his life to show how much he loves you. You don’t have to earn God’s love or work your way into heaven. The Bible says, “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9 NIV).

If you haven’t trusted in Jesus and committed to following him, why wait any longer? If you’re ready to step across that line and make the decision to believe in Jesus Christ and follow him, pray this prayer:

“Dear Jesus, you have promised that if I believe in you, everything I’ve ever done wrong will be forgiven, I will learn the purpose of my life, and you will accept me into your eternal home in heaven one day.

“I confess my sin, and I believe you are my Savior. You have promised that if I confess my sin and trust you, I will be saved. I trust you when you say salvation comes by grace, through faith, and not by anything I do. I receive you into my life as my Lord. Today I’m turning over every part of my life to your management. You have the right to call the shots in my life.

“I want to use the rest of my life to serve you instead of serving myself. I commit my life to you and ask you to save me and accept me into your family. In your name I pray. Amen.”

If you just prayed to accept Jesus, please email me at Rick@PastorRick.com and let me know about it. I’d like to send you some free materials to help you start your journey with Jesus.

El Cambio Toma Tiempo

“Pónganse la nueva naturaleza, creada para ser a la semejanza de Dios, quien es verdaderamente justo y santo”.  Efesios 4:24 (NTV)

Cuando Dios quiere remover defectos de tu vida, no hace un chasquido con sus dedos para que eso acontezca en forma instantánea. Lo hace gradualmente. Cuando Dios quiere hacer un champiñón, le toma seis horas. Pero cuando quiere hacer un roble, le toma sesenta años.

¿Quieres ser un champiñón o un roble?

El Espíritu Santo hará cambios en tu vida mucho más allá de lo que pensaste que era posible, pero no van a pasar de la noche a la mañana. Mi oración por ti es que, por medio de la obra del Espíritu Santo y la Palabra de Dios, más el apoyo de tu grupo pequeño, tú seas más maduro, más semejante a Cristo, y sigas avanzando en tu propósito un año, cinco años, diez años más.

Mi oración es que seas más fuerte emocional, físico, espiritual, psicológico y financieramente, pero tú debes ser intencional respecto a todo esto. La Biblia dice: “Pónganse la nueva naturaleza, creada para ser a la semejanza de Dios, quien es verdaderamente justo y santo” Efesios 4:24 (NTV).

De esta manera es que llegamos a ser más como Jesús. El apóstol Pablo dice: “El Señor, quien es el Espíritu, nos hace más y más parecidos a él a medida que somos transformados a su gloriosa imagen”  2 Corintios 3:18b (NTV). 

Reflexiona sobre esto:

¿Por qué crees que Dios quiere hacer cambios en ti de manera progresiva y no instantáneamente?
¿Cómo obra el Espíritu Santo en tu vida? ¿Cómo le has visto trabajar en ti?
¿Qué rol tiene un grupo pequeño en el crecimiento espiritual de alguien?
