Tearing Down the Walls

Tearing Down the Walls

Refinery Life Radio

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 64 of Refinery Life radio /TV.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.

Today we are going to talk about, Tearing Down the Walls.

Mark 10:21 (AMP)

21 Looking at him, Jesus felt a love (high regard, compassion) for him, and He said to him, “You lack one thing: go and sell all your property and give [the money] to the poor, and you will have [abundant] treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me[becoming My disciple, believing and trusting in Me and walking the same path of life that I walk].”

The Great Wall of China is a barrier so large it can be seen from space.

It was built to protect the Chinese empire from invading tribes.

While physical barriers are often built to protect, spiritual barriers can seperate us from things we need.

The young man in todays scripture had many good things in life, and he hoped to add eternal life to his list.

His heart was pointed in the right direction, but a barrier kept him from accepting Christ.

Jesus understood this barrier, and He cut through the conversation with a prescription for its removal.

In telling the young man to sell his possessions, Jesus helped the young man see that he valued his earthly possessions more than eternal reward.

Until the young man put God first, the barrier to heaven would be insurmountable.

What barriers keep you from complete fellowship with the Lord today?

Be honest with yourself and Him.

Examine your life and confess the barriers that have been built, then tear them down in heartfelt prayer to God.

Until tomorrow

Stay in the blessings
