“We Know How to Have Church”
There’s a difference between being a promise chaser and being a God chaser. ❤️🔥
You can know how to have church. You can know when it starts, when to sing, when to shout, and how to go through the motions, yet still miss the presence of God.
The children of Israel wanted the Promised Land, but Moses wanted God Himself.
That’s the heart of a God chaser.
We don’t just want the blessing. We want the One who gives the blessing. We don’t just want the promise. We want His presence. We don’t just want a house. We want a house built on the Rock. We don’t just want success. We want Jesus.
You can have the promise and miss the presence.
Matthew 5 reminds us that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness will be filled. God responds to genuine hunger for Him!
And when we truly encounter Jesus, we don’t leave the same. His presence transforms us. It makes us holy. It changes how we walk, how we respond when life gets hard, and who we are when nobody is watching.
The question isn’t just, “Did you have church?”
Did you encounter Jesus?
Are you chasing what God can give you, or are you chasing after God Himself?
Our families need Jesus. Our young people need Jesus. Our churches need Jesus. We need an encounter with Jesus!
Lord, shake everything until there’s nothing left to stand on but You.
Make us God chasers, not just promise chasers.
