Cross the Bridge Daily Evotionals 20th March 2021 – Exam Time

Cross the Bridge Daily Evotionals 20th March 2021, Saturday Message By Pastor David McGee

Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified.(NKJV)

Ever been at a checkout line and had a cashier test your quarter, nickel or dime to see if it’s real or not? I’m sure you haven’t, but how about twenty or one hundred dollar bills? They test these two often. Why is that? They test the larger bills because it’s worth the test. If it’s important to test to see if our currency is real, how much more should we test ourselves to see that our faith is genuine? Here are some things that each of us can ask:

• Am I reading? Am I reading and studying the Bible daily?
• Am I praying? Am I praying with faith and trust?
• Am I serving? Am I serving with passion?
• Am I believing? Am I believing with confidence?
• Am I asking for forgiveness? Am I asking forgiveness with humility?
• Am I worshipping? Am I worshipping with the joy of a sinner forgiven?
• Am I giving? Am I giving with gladness?
• Am I reaching out? Am I reaching out with love?

If you tested yourself, and you are not sure where you stand with the Lord, then come to Him afresh. Be honest with God. Confess your sin, trust in His amazing grace and then live for Him. He desires to guide your life and to use you to change the world around you. Are you ready?

Life Lesson: Spiritual self-examination examines not only the fruit or the works, but even examines the heart behind it.

Dear God,
Thank You that you have made a way for me to be forgiven. Thank you that You not only desire to forgive me, but You also want to be a part of my life. Help me to examine my faith and give me the power to make changes where I fall short. Lord, I want to live a life that glorifies You and draws others to You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
