You have heard of times when an incident, such as a car wreck, leads to many different accounts from witnesses. When a single incident produces multiple, contradictory views, it is often called the Rashomon effect, which shows how witnesses interpret the same event based on their own perspectives or motivations.
There will be times in your life when you say or do something, and the responses of those around you will be vastly different. I saw a short video of a father who made his daughter walk to school because she had bullied a child at school the day before. He followed her in the car to make sure she was safe. The comments ranged from calling him a great dad to calling him mean and abusive. Each person judged him based on their own opinions, past experiences, or perceptions. The point is, you will never please everyone. My personal motto is, “If I please God, I will please the right people”. Put God first and don’t let others’ opinions or judgements weigh you down. If you did the right thing in the eyes of God, everything from others is simply their personal perspective or opinion.
Romans 12:1-2 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Galatians 1:10 For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.
Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

One morning, I was feeding the chickens and noticed that one of the hens stayed right next to me when I got the feed out. She knew I would give her a handful before I fed the rest of the chickens. Her staying close to me was a double blessing to her. That made me think about Elijah and Elisha. In 2 Kings 2, we find this: After they had crossed over, Elijah said to Elisha, “Tell me, what can I do for you before I am taken away from you?” “Please, let me inherit a double portion of your spirit,” Elisha replied. “You have requested a difficult thing,” said Elijah. “Nevertheless, if you see me as I am taken from you, it will be yours. But if not, then it will not be so.” To receive the double potion, he had to stay close to Elijah.
God has some special blessings for us as well, but in order to receive them, we have to stay close to God. We can’t drift away and just run close to God when we need something. A daily, close relationship with Him will bring blessings you never imagined, so stay close to God and receive the double portion He has for you.
James 4:8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
Hebrews 4:16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.

Do you agree with any of these statements?
Put yourself first.
Listen to your heart.
Do what feels right.
God will never put more on me than I can bear.
Whatever I ask God for, He will give me.
Actually, none of those are Biblically correct. God tells us to put Him first and to die to self. His Word also tells us we cannot live according to our hearts or feelings, but must make our decisions based on His Word. In truth, God regularly puts more on us than we can bear, so we will depend on and trust Him. God does say that with every temptation there is a way of escape, but not all life difficulties. Finally, God says if we ask according to His will, He will supply our needs and answer our prayers, not according to our carnal desires. Some Scriptures say whatever we ask for if we believe we will receive, yet a close look at all Scripture that passage speaks about praying in God’s will. Scripture also shows that living for God and obeying Him affects what we ask for. Sometimes things sound good or right, but let’s always go to God’s Word for the truth.
Matthew 6:33 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
Galatians 2:20 20I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
Jeremiah 17:9-10 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? “I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.”
1 John 3:22 22and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him.
1 John 5:14 And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.

Good Sunday Morning and welcome to “Getting To Know You with Host Paul Pitts” and his special guest Steve Ladd.

The son of an evangelist, Steve matured to become a beloved member of America’s most acclaimed Christian music groups, including Gold City, The Anchormen, and the Old Paths (Anthem Edition).
Now with his solo career, Steve has continued ministering to audiences with inspirational songs like “Come Sunday Morning,” “One More River,” and “Preach the Word.” These harmonious melodies have transformed into personal anthems of encouragement that Steve carries wherever he goes, as he testifies to lives touched, healed, and uplifted.
