If you live worldly and not godly, you will perish. These scriptures tell us that the things of this world, will pass away, but he that does the will of God, will abide forever! If you want life eternal, you must be doing the will of God. The first and most important thing that God, wants you to do is to believe in Jesus Christ.

One thing, I like to stress is this: We need to read our Bibles to know the true will of God. I've had situations where I thought God, would want me to do one thing, but the Bible teaches to do a different thing. If we listen to our flesh and not the Word of God, we will not inherit everlasting life. The point of today's devotion is to ask you, "Are you doing God's will? Are you going to abide forever?" I fall short on doing God's will, but I keep trying. We all fall short, but we need to keep trying to do His will. Get in the Word of God and learn God's will for your life! Many followers are still lost, because they don't know God's will. They don't know His will, because they don't know His Word! Some followers just know about John 3:16, if they're lucky, but who doesn't know that much? Just knowing John 3:16 and nothing else, won't save you! The sad thing is many don't even know about John 3:16. People go to church on Sunday, but if you ask them for a scripture on Monday, they say, "A Scripture? What's that?" That's why it's important to read your Bibles outside of the church too.

Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, please forgive us of all our sins and we forgive those who've wronged, us. Thank you for this message and for everything. Please bring us close to you and help us to know your will. Help us to also do your will, so we may abide forever. In Jesus, name. A-men!
