"I DO" BUT I CAN'T - (31 Day Challenge)

DAY TWENTY-EIGHT

THE FINAL FOUR

Congratulations, you have made it to 4 weeks! You only have 4 days left including today before you are done but these last few days will be heavy and God will work in his mysterious ways to strengthen you in your weakness and discipline you in your ignorance.

For the next four days, you will be given 4 tasks to choose from.
___________________________________

There's 4 challenges that you can choose from for the final days so you must return to this chapter for the rest of the days to read about your next challenge. Remember, you can do it in any order.

The other 3 chapters will still be written but they will be written on VERY SERIOUS topics. You must finish this book or else you will miss out on God's word for your life but I hope you are a better person today in Christ than you was 4 weeks ago. Take your time and read carefully through every chapter and you will truly be blessed in Jesus' name!

1.) WHO COULD THEY BE?
(Day 1/4)

It's easy to forget the girl who was kind enough to lend you a pencil in 3rd period of October the 4th during the year 2014. Or maybe the guy who gave you the exact time as you waited for the train, bus or tram that you had to take because your phone battery ran out. Of course it's easy.

However, there are people who live across your street, around your neighbourhood and in your estate. There are people who sat next to you in maths class everyday of your previous year or people who you walked by and greeted after passing by that same park, hotel or monument every single day. There are people everywhere that you've chosen to ignore until this day. Maybe old friends and previous crushes. Whatever the circumstance and whoever they are, you need to re-enter and talk to them again.

This time, you need to pay full attention to them, talk to them, find out about their plans, pains and daily struggles because even when we've focused on ourselves and forgot them; God hasn't! So go and talk to those that you never got the opportunity to stay in contact with or those you never even paid much attention to, please make the effort to love on them and bless them abundantly.

2.) THE LOVE OF MONEY!
(Day 2/4)

The average person lives of $1 a day. That is one of the saddest statement you will ever hear but I don't feel as sorry for those people than I feel for those who will read this. The saddest part of life is that there are actually people who will be reading this or who have access to this right now and they will call themselves 'poor'. Now isn't that sad? There was probably a point in time of your life where you envied your friends and you wished that you had their game consoles, their trainers or their gadgets and technology. Not even realising that you are ridiculously and filthy rich.

The fact that you can read this or you have access to technology in the first place just proves that you are rich and Jesus spoke out of sympathy to His disciples as the rich young ruler walked away. Mathew 19:24 - "Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God."

So it's impossible for a rich person to get into heaven? Yes. The disciples knew that even THEY were rich! Mathew 19:25 - When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, "Who then can be saved?"

The task is simple, give your money away. Do not hold on to it and spend it on useless and selfish temporarily things when you can bless a waitress, a neighbour or a friend in need because if we use it on ourselves, there are no gifts awaiting us for that reason. However, if you bless others around you, there are great treasures awaiting you. Even in the future, if you're planning to travel oversea or around the state; God will also bless you abundantly! Jesus replied to the disciples in Mathew 19:26 - "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."

3.) NO TECH, NO PROBLEM!
(Day 3/4)

The world wide Web has not even been here for a minimum of 70 years, yet it has made the most impact since the world began. The world has never been more selfish, self centered and egoistic since the beginning of time. The world is the most horrific place right now because of the internet.

More human trafficking has to occur because of the many views that the porn industry recieve on a daily basis. The world find more pleasure watching young women who are forced into this perverted industry of sex slavery than they do watching over their friends and family. So because of the Internet, the suicidal rates has never been higher. The internet has also increased the amount of pedophiles who now have access to young immature children. The internet has gave us more opportunities but it has took away our purity, focus, wholeness, joy, satisfaction and humility.  We now create pages to be worshipped, we find ways for people to like us, we're judgemental with everything we see, we're stubborn and we're fake. Most people only see the 'us' that we wish we were but aren't.

The Internet has took us away from reality and God's asking you to escape it for a day. Can you give up not just the internet but technology. Today, spend time without technology, how hard can it be? Just you and the people around you, focus on everything else that you forgot about because as much as technology has helped us, it's still been the greatest curse upon our generation. Children cannot be tamed without it, children learn more on their games than they do from our voices. One day you will have children, if you can't go without using technology now, how will you raise them? They need your example and whatever you deal with now, they won't have to struggle deal with it in the future. Fight your today, free their tomorrow.

4.) EARTH'S FULL OF HIS GLORY!
(Day 4/4)

Isaiah 6:1-3 - 'In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. And they were calling to one another: "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory."

Genesis 1:24-25 - And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds—livestock and creeping things and beasts of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so. And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds and the livestock according to their kinds, and everything that creeps on the ground according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

Isn't the world just beautiful? Why don't you spend today just travelling. It could be a few miles or even into another town or city but take the time today to just glorify God through his amazing creation. Isn't God's throne breathtaking? However, I never noticed how the angels glorify God. They said 'the whole earth is full of his glory'. I know we struggle to see that but God wants to show us because through His nature, the Bible says we are without excuse. We can look at everything and we KNOW that there was a divine supreme and omnipotent designer who crafted it all. Thank you Lord for your creation.

____________________________________

For the next four days including today, you need to choose what you will do and in what order. So for example, you can choose in this order:

DAY 28. Earth's full of His glory.
DAY 29. The love of money.
DAY 30. Who could they be?
DAY 31. No tech, no problem.

That's just an example but feel free to do the challenges in any order. You can come back to this page to read it all and have a fresh mind of what you need to do next. Remember to focus on the next 4 days because it will require a lot of discipline and surrender to God but it will force you to grow. The next chapters will require your full attention because the topics must be taken seriously in able for you to take the most of out these 31 days.

God bless you! I know you will always thank God for these past few weeks for as long as you live.
