We are wired to worship. Who are you worshipping today?

I could look at these people in the Bible and say, “These guys are so dumb. Why can’t they sit still for 5 seconds? Why do they need to make something to worship?”

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.” – Matthew 7:13

These words were spoken by Jesus, as He preached to His disciples and to others listening to Him. He compelled them to make choices that the rest of the world wouldn’t understand – difficult choices that few would make.

Jesus was saying that the popular route is generally the one that leads to destruction. And His path is narrow, and very often full of obstacles.

It’s easy to understand the meaning of the verse when we read through it.
It’s also probably easy to assume that you are already on the narrow path, and that the choices you are making are the right ones.

Especially if you have put your faith in Jesus, it is easy to believe that you will completely make it through the narrow gate.

But it’s only if we take a closer look at our lives, especially through the lens of Scripture, that we begin to realize that we may have some problems.

Very often, we look at promises in the Bible that declare prosperity and favour, and we try our best to apply it to our own lives.

As much as we may not like to admit it, we all want the best for ourselves, we all want to live our best life now. We all want to be comfortable, safe and at the same time, have favour with God.

But in the pursuit of these awesome Biblical promises, we forget about some other verses that are actually promised to all who follow Christ.
